CNN Contributor To Pull Shotgun On Census Workers

CNN contributor and prominent Republican blogger Erick Erickson is threatening to pull out a “shotgun” to scare away census workers.

Erickson — the founder of the conservative blog RedState — said on his Macon, Ga.-area radio show Thursday that if a census worker carrying a longer American Community Survey form came by his house, he would “pull out my wife’s shotgun and see how that little ACS twerp likes being scared at the door.”

“They’re not going on my property. They can’t do that. They don’t have the legal right, and yet they’re trying,” Erickson said, in a recording by the liberal media watchdog Media Matters. “The servants are becoming the masters. We are working for the government. We are becoming enslaved by the government.”
