Seriously?? Jesus cleansed the money changers out of the temple. A pathetic attempt to invoke Christ when this is a political fight won't gain you any points.

Jesus taught that those who followed him would have to give up everything, family and even their lives, so a job isn't much of a request.

My concern is how many will just roll over, too many Americans take your view and won't fight for what is right.

Just doing my part...

Good work. If this keeps up all week I think I'll wander about and see what I can do to "underscore the message"....

“Blaming the underlings is more than misguided. We need to make government officials issuing the orders answer for their orders.”

I guess we will simply have to disagree. When you have lawlessness, it is implemented by the low-level people. But they are physically present to do the enforcement. They need to either refuse to obey the unlawful orders they have been given, or suffer the consequences.


I would hope all are agreeing both are a problem, not just one.

You want to pick a fight, go stand up to the state troopers preventing people from viewing Mt. Rushmore.

Where did you get that asinine idea? It isn't the state troopers or even local LEOs, it is the NPS rangers. The SD Governor is ticked over this.

“Sure they have choices.”

We all have choices. I’m sure everyone on this thread calling on these rangers to quit are leading the way by not paying their federal taxes or otherwise obeying federal law.

If not, to borrow the silly, over-the-top rhetoric being tossed around here, you’re a NAZI, a collaborater and war criminal fit only for a Nuremburg type trial. Silly.

I am not condoning bad bahavior by the NPS, simply trying to point out how easy it is to point fingers and demand others sacrifice while ignoring your choices.

As is Scott Walker - the scenario I conflated SD with, my apologies for being so asinine.

“...for a decade and more and worked and campaigned and cried and screamed and .... we’re tired. “

I hear that but that point is slightly different than “I’m scared, I have a family”. There are seasons to life and there comes a time when a man is past busting heads and taking names. At 55 I’m not there yet but I sense it looming out there well enough.

If it keeps up all week I am going back with bolt cutters. It’s entering the peak of fall foliage.

I’m sorry but I really don’t know.

It’s being passed around on Facebook and that’s the only resolution I’ve ever seen.

Wish I could be more help.

:(
