Dept. of Homeland Defense Threatens Employees (VANITY)

Oh really? Well, I’ve heard that it’s very helpful.

[MARTIAL MONK]

That’s not what they told me!

[Mathews]

Nope. I meant DHS. The van stays in the garage.

[DManA]

How are you going to pass this knowledge on?

I read somewhere that a guy told another guy that someone he know told him......

[elpadre]

I know of several who went to work for DHS at the outset and some others that transfered, and all of them were conservative freedom lovers who might well be leading tea parties. These were career people and are probably still working there.

[Star Traveler]

You said — I’m sure they did not leave a paper trail. It was probably a voice warning starting at the top and working it’s way down.

—

Well..., that’s good then. If it’s not documented and there is no paper trail, then it does not have to be followed, as it’s not a published and/or legitimate policy. That means, it’s only someone’s “opinion” who happens to be a supervisor and *not* the policy of the agency...

[Virginia Ridgerunner]

Yes.

[blam]

"Never heard of a “Department of Homeland Defense”."

It's the new shock troops for the Democrat Party.

[RobinOfKingston]

Ok ... care to elaborate?

[SE Mom]

When my neighbor gets home from work today I’ll check (works for TSA).

Is your family member contacting anyone about this?

Did this “word” come in an email or just word-of-mouth?

[MayflowerMadam]

I’m not surprised; just one more Constitutional right down the drain.

[Mathews]

I’m still getting the information, but it seems my family member’s boss had an edict passed down verbally from the state boss of DHS. I’m not too clear on the chain of command, but it sounds like it passed through three layers... all verbally.

[aetheraddict]

[Virginia Ridgerunner]

Nothing in writing or by email, but verbally down from upon high, via word of mouth.

[Cindy]

We don’t have a department called “Homeland Defense.”

[Cindy]

Were you in the military?

Just curious.

[Mathews]

I fell all over myself trying to correct that mistake. It's DHS... I know... I know.

[Mathews]

That you Boss?

[djf]

Well, we might call it hearsay.

But these days, DHS has lists of terrorist folks, which includes people who say their prayers before bed.

So it doesn’t sound like it’s all that implausible.

[Cindy]

“That you Boss?”

Nope, I’m in charge of house cleaning and cooking, etc. — a housewife.
