HA! we got the census mail version yesterday. I have no problem with answering what I consider to be
constitutionally recognized questions. Such as people in the house, age, relationship etc....stuff I seen on
census forms from back in the early 1800's.
I however think it none of their business what my phone number is, whether my house is paid for or not,
and there may have been a couple more I left unanswered. I answered what I wanted to and skipped the others.

I strongly urge all Republicans, conservatives, and Tea Party members to throw it away.  It is a Liberal plot and you will all be thrown into re-education camps if you mail this in.  They are building one on some vacant land in my neighborhood at this moment.

Hey Mark,
that's what I started to do myself. but then I thought about censuses I'd read back then and
thought, well maybe it's okay to answer a couple more. Lots of folks are going with what you've stated.
Good for you.

Got my first ride in today.! Spring is finally here.

        Yeah, I got mine AND, when I went to take care of my Dad, he told me that there was something I needed to see. He had gotten one there at the Assisted Living place, when his current mailing address, is MY address. ::) Guess that might mess them up, if they were to send both to me. ???

You all do realize that you could be fined for not answering the questions don't you? I am not stating anything one way or the other. Just pointing out a fact.

It's called the 6th District in Minnesota represented by Rapture Republican Michelle Bachmann.  She actually told people not to fill it out and talked of "concentration" camps for conservatives not too long ago.  Something is in the water there and thankfully I don't live in that district. ;D

Well you know we need to find out which people running for a government office are Pro-America or Anti-America!

I just filled mine out.  Saw no reason for rebellion.  Now if they come in black helicopters to take me away I may change my mind. ;D

If you do own it outright they will compensate you with more hardtack in the FEMA camps.

I prefer to have my fun with the business directory. Our neighbor turned in our cat as a 9 year old black student named Tom. fun ever since. I wondered if I could get him ID and a credit card.
