Va Supervisor Threatens Me

[Cruinthe]

So I pass out cards and generally BS with my fellow veterans when I am in the VARO waiting area. I spoke to one young man about his case. After the conversation, a VA supervisor walked up to him and loudly warned him to not listen to my advice, and not to talk to me at all.

Fast forward to today, I went in to the VARO to clarify an issue about my DRO hearing. I asked the same VA supervisor about the conversation he had with the young man, and I was warned again that I may not speak with anyone while waiting at the VARO.

Anyone have any feedback on this?

Well, English IS my "second language", so, the less I say, the fewer mistakes I make. Concerning you dilemma at the VA............I suppose that they can demand that you "sit down and shut up", after all, they got the guns.............................................

Really depends on who the supervisor is. I think I would let it go but than sometimes I get cranky and you know how things can escalate. I really do not see how anyone at the VA can prevent two Veterans from sharing information.

The first amendment applies only until a VARO supervisor says it doesn't.

Tell the suit to go pound sand......ask him what he would say when you bring in the media.
