| Teacher and Census worker Bill Sparkman, hanged in Kentucky |
"I'm a temporary census worker, started in March. I don't know why Mr. Sparkman was murdered but I've had some reservations for months about doing my job. The hate & misinformation being spilled across the Internet and other media outlets is unbelievable. Now granted when on the net, alot of people write things they would never say in person. But I've seen alot of... 'I told that Acorn Bitch that came to my door this', or...'If one of those Acorners step foot on my property they'll be met with my Smith & Wesson.'
"First off, none of the census workers have anything to do with Acorn. The majority of them are over the age of 50 and white, either needing some extra money or looking for something to do since they are retired. So it's probably someone's parent or grandparent out knocking on doors. But thanks to some in the media, they've convinced the simple minded that we're recruits of Acorn. Everyone I've dealt with in the census employment process works for the CENSUS. I do wonder why it took so long for this news to hit the airwaves since he was found on Sept. 12."
