...NPS sent law enforcement agents to the park on Tuesday evening to remove staff and volunteers from the property.

We are 'safe' now..................

I wonder if the Hale Farm/Village is closed? Bet it is. It’s in the Cuyahoga Valley Park/Reservation.

More pain politics by the Obastard administration.

Even bus turn around spaces are being Barry caded. Newt Gingrich posted a picture from Mount Vernon.

If they were Federal Law enforcement agents, I thought the government was in a shutdown.

[PowderMonkey]

Should get real interesting if they pull the same crap at Manassas, Wilderness, or Fredericksburg battlefields...I hear the distant rattle of Southern muskets.

[Ghost of SVR4]

The cartels that are growing in our national forests are loving this..

Obama hates America.

“You do have to wonder about the wisdom of an organization that would use staff they don’t have the money to pay to evict visitors from a park site that operates without costing them any money,”

Exactly. The funding for the NPS has been cut off.

They have no business going around terrorizing park visitors.

Boehner should man up and pass a resolution shutting down the rest of the government that still insists in operating. Just fire the fools. Maybe that’s the only way they’ll get the message.

[RedMDer]

Obama NPS has ordered it held hostage to suspend operations until Congress agrees to a deal to fund the federal government.

Fixed it.

“You do have to wonder about the wisdom of an organization that would use staff they don’t have the money to pay to evict visitors from a park site that operates without costing them any money.”

You really don’t have to wonder, if the organization is a government.

This is beyond perfect.

We need to grab them by the nose and kick ‘em. Repeat until done.

Some speculated that the decision to close the memorial was part of a concerted effort by the administration to play up the consequences of the shutdown in an effort to convince congressional Republicans to agree to a funding bill without preconditions.

That tactic is known as the Washington Monument Strategy, in reference to efforts by Nixon administration officials to inflate the consequences of budget cuts at the time.

Seems Nixon really was a major termite to our Republic!

[rockinqsranch]

From reading so many threads on NPS barricading, etc. I’d say someone in the heirarchy of the NPS is overreacting, OR this is from the top of the Obama Admin. to push to the tipping point. IOW They want a fight.

If so, they will more than likely get one.

[MarkL]

Hey Barky, YOU didn’t build (or pay for) THAT!!!!

[wrencher]

Civil Disobedience, if they put up barricades near you, push them out of the way.

This shutdown will become a parody the way “Sequester” did.

[Amish with an attitude]

More of the “make it hurt” policy ushered in by the sequester.

[jonno]

How our great-great grand-sires made it across the oceans from the “old world”, then across the mountains and prairies of the new world - without the aid of any govt entity (save on rare occasion the US Army) - is baffling...
