Don't Threaten The SSA

The Social Security Administration plans to ban threatening people from its offices. A proposed rule lists four reasons for a ban: The person might have verbally assaulted SSA employees, threatened them with violence, disrupted their work or interfered with office operations. Commissioner Michael Astrue says banned people would be kept from all Social Security offices nationwide. Under the rule, now open for comment, SSA would notify people in writing that they're no longer allowed to set foot on SSA premises. Last year threats against Social Security personnel rose 43 percent to a total of two thousand, eight hundred.

  1. I wonder what it is they are doing to make 2800 people (thats just the ones they admit to) threaten them? And do their names get passed on to Homeland Security and TSA so they can limit their ability to travel or get subjected to an extra search or surveillance? Oh, the possibilities...
