In case I was too oblique, the historic reason the back country of Kentucky wasn't necessarily safe for federal representatives was because of territorial moonshine makers.
Not quite the source of violence it was in the past but still real.
Not saying that was the reason, it just strikes me as equally likely (and there are many other possibilities) on the currently available information as it being someone inspired by Michele Bachman's comments on the census itself.
Ultimately, unless there is direct evidence found one way or another, it may not be possible to assign one murder to one cause. And jumping to conclusions isn't particularly useful except as a rhetorical club. It is something to watch and investigate, of course.
