Somehow I don't think that is going to happen this time around. May be some small upsides to "The Wuhan" after all...

For the 'Heritage' question should I have answered 'Yes, I have two, but I like my Ruger Wrangler better?'

I just did it on line. Document in the mail got wet and I dried it in my microwave (scorched it a bit). Took maybe 5-10 minutes to complete.

Done! Yup...very easy and didn't take long. I was VERY tempted, though, to write in "Meat Popsicle" as to what kind of "White" I am. Big Grin I resisted that and started to write "Italian-Irish American", but in the end, just kept it simple and wrote in "American".

"Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24

Got the census letter in the mail yesterday and was wondering if anyone has gone online to fill theirs out and how long it took.


The instructions said about 10 minutes, and mine was no longer than that.

From the 2020census web site:
From May through July, census takers will visit homes that haven't responded to help make sure everyone is counted. Maybe they can do it through the door Big Grin

Saw that it's shut down for the next 14 days. No training, visits, etc.

Found mine in the mail box today. I was leery to begin with, but it wasn't as intrusive as I recall from years past.

Besides my gate is locked with a dog running the property so a census worker would have no chance getting to my from door.

I submitted mine online and it was very fast and easy. It took me around 5 minutes and that was with proof-reading my answers.

And some how 'they' knew I tossed mine also and sent me a post card.
It has an impressive control code on it telling me how to do it online. And a promise that if I do not do it online within a week, that they will send me another paper form to fill out.
To bad they do not take as seriously any of their many self-created troubles.

Same here. The instruction sheet was only in 15 languages, I predict an ACLU lawsuit.

I did mine today during a break in training. Went online and finished it under ten minutes.

I don't object to responding to the census. I do wish they'd allowed the "Are you a citizen?" question, but still... It's constitutionally mandated.




You can't truly call yourself "peaceful" unless you are capable of great violence. If you're not capable of great violence, you're not peaceful, you're harmless.
