Reality check
"That's all I wanted to hear, that specialist had led me astray. Which now is not actually astray because of the fact that I was denied. And, I never 'took legal advice' from him."
What nonsense. You were told that specialist misinformed you immediately after his erroneous post about appealing to the FLRB, which has NO jurisdiction over your situations.
Once denied, you immediately asked the mistaken source, specialist, for advice on how to take an appeal. For those of us with some familiarity with language and logic, that is indeed seeking legal advice.
The fact that you were actually denied changes nothing; the FLRB is
still irrevelevent to your dilemma. Yet you claim that you were "not actually [led] astray." Wrong is wrong; grasp the concept.
"This should be a forum and a thread where other people can come and learn how to deal with the problems that we as MA citizens and shooters face."
So far; so good. Where you fail is the continuation of that thought - LEARNING and DEALING require correct information correctly applied. That is where you have demonstrably failed, by not listening to and/or following that correct advice.
You were told NOT to call the chief; but to write. You called; you were denied; you have no record of what was said. Good work.....
You were told that specialist had misinformed you about the FLRB; you then specifically ask him for more blinding insights regarding the appeals process. How do
you say "slow learner?"
Now you claim that you weren't actually "astray" because you were denied, ignoring the fact that it changes nothing regarding the FLRB or your learned source's misinformation. Talk about TSTL.....
"It really seems like you have no good will toward me or my cause at all, 6. Why is that?"
Because you've learned nothing; will almost certainly DO nothing; and, should you actually try, will probably blow it, making a bully look good. Clear enough for you?
