Judges who hear Social Security disability cases are facing a growing number of violent threats from claimants angry over being denied benefits or frustrated at lengthy delays in processing claims.
I get up from my nap to this headline. OK, who is it?

Social Security judges facing more violent threats
The article would have been much better if they listed each states "backlog." In 2005 the backlog in New Jersey was 3-5 years. Unknown if it's better or worse now. |

Not to make light of the threats in general, but one person was going to get a plane and fly it into the court ? Another is going to join the Taliban to fight against the US governemnt.
If you could do those things, isn't it correct that you were denied disability ?!?!?

I totally understand 'hidden' disabilities.........but I can't think of any where the meds takenor diagnosis wouldn't preclude you from being a pilot. To work for the Taliban, you are on duty 24/7, carry a gun around in the desert, obey the orders of a crazy man or pay with your life, might have to sleep on the ground and have little access to meds and supplies.......can't think of too many disabilities that would allow someone to do that.......and can't figure out how someone could do that and not be able to manage, "Do you want fries with that?" If you could be in the Taliban's army, you could be in our army, and could not be totally disabled by the definition of totaly disability.

Sounds to me like this person or persons never had good intentions in the first place. Just my humble opinion.
