Preach on, brother!
I think that’s the new theme. The more things that are under Federal Government control, the more dangerous it is, as is the case with this shutdown. Power and control should be decentralized and returned to the states.
The local volunteer auxiliary stepped in staff the place and keep it open.
When the dust had cleared, what had been a source of employment for two or three state employees now no longer needed any. The local booster organization was doing without them just fine. I don't know if that's still the case, but it may very well have become permanent.
The Alamo is not a national park.
Isn’t Jerry Patterson is running for Gov.? Looks like maybe he’s just trying to get his name in the news.
a fellow SASS shooters father who keeps his fifth wheel up at the lake in Oklahoma, emailed me to say that her father had to pull up stakes and move out of there...as this is a Federally controlled lake.
Now the govt shutdown, does not prevent the government officers from coming by and giving those people citations.
I also hear that the everglades and waters around the southern tip of florida are shut down. How does one shut down a waterway?
the POSOTUS, is in for a big surprise come election day 2014 and 2016. That is if the uniformed voters get it right.
they forgot ... the alamo !
In the long run, ya think this outrageous shutdown behavior will make more states want to take back their own land?
Jerry Patterson is one of Texas’s heroes.
We owe a lot to him in the Lone Star State!
They should let the Federal Government run the basement area.
Just let nobama try to lay claim to the Alamo, talk about SHTF! Go ask the Messkins how that worked out for them.
There’s a red bike in the basement
I bleive the Feds learned a lesson recently when they tried to close up Mt. Vernon back east...That facility is run a lot like The Alamo is in Texas...
I imagine that if the Feds tried to shut down the access to the Alamo, they might very well have a serious problem on their hands...
Not only native Texans would be riled up by that attempt, but I have a very good feeling that some patriotic Tejanos would be in our ranks a well, and very welcome at that!!!
I blieve it is a line in the sand that the Feds know all too well they had beter not cross in this state, or many other places as well...
The eggshells cannot hold them up very well outside the Beltway...
Things are rapidly coming to a head, and in about ten days, we are going to see who we can count on when that bubble bursts...
It’s the site of a Mexican victory. They wouldn’t want to close that anyway.
