'Gestapo' tactics meet senior citizens at Yellowstone
Eagle-Tribune ^ | October 8, 2013 | Staff

NEWBURYPORT — Pat Vaillancourt went on a trip last week that was intended to showcase some of America’s greatest treasures.

Instead, the Salisbury resident said she and others on her tour bus witnessed an ugly spectacle that made her embarrassed, angry and heartbroken for her country....

For many hours her tour group, which included senior citizen visitors from Japan, Australia, Canada and the United States, were locked in a Yellowstone National Park hotel under armed guard.

How long will it be before one of these feral government thugs opens fire on a disobedient subject?

More importantly, how soon before said subjects fire BACK...

I called my ohio congressman, .......Asked him if he was aware if the Yellowstone situation, he said, “no”. I said, “you should be because park rangers locked people in their hotel and surrounded it with armed rangers. I then read him key points of the article. I requested a response by the end of the day, I demanded to know what is being done about it. I wanted Stivers made personally aware of it and wanted a personal response from him.

DUmmie FUnnies 10-07-13 ("This Land's Not Your Land": DUmmies down with Obama's park shutdown)


THIS LAND'S NOT YOUR LAND
Tune: "This Land Is Your Land"
As sung by King Obama

This land's not your land, this land is my land
Shut down or open, it comes from my hand
From Barack Obama to the bitter clingers:
This land's not made for you to see

If you go driving an interstate highway
And see an orange cone, you'll do it my way
You will obey me and not go forward
This land's not made for you to see

This land's not your land, this land is my land
Shut down or open, it comes from my hand
From Barack Obama to the bitter clingers:
This land's not made for you to see

You'll want to travel and go to Mount Rushmore
But at Rapid City, you won't go much more
Guards will surround you, their voices sounding:
This land's not made for you to see

This land's not your land, this land is my land
Shut down or open, it comes from my hand
From Barack Obama to the bitter clingers:
This land's not made for you to see

If you oppose me, I'll make you suffer
Come near memorials, I'll put up a buffer
I am Obama, I am your land lord
This land's not made for you to see

This land's not your land, this land is my land
Shut down or open, it comes from my hand
From Barack Obama to the bitter clingers:
This land's not made for you to see

If you go looking, you'll see a sign there
And on the sign it says: "There's No Trespassing"
And on the other side: "No Looking or Nothing!"
Both sides were made for you to see

This land's not your land, this land is my land
Shut down or open, it comes from my hand
From Barack Obama to the bitter clingers:
This land's not made for you to see

At the Redwood Forest, in the land of the Canyons
By the Gulfstream Waters, you'll see my minions
As they stand there guarding, you'll stand there wond'ring:
Is this land safe for me to see?

This land's not your land, this land is my land
Shut down or open, it comes from my hand
From Barack Obama to the bitter clingers:
This land's not made for you to see

No one can stop me, my mind is made up
As I go putting my Barrycades up
Nobody living can make me give your land back
This land's not made for you to see

New voices:

But King Obama, this land is our land
So shut your piehole, you can go pound sand
From the bitter clingers to Barack Obama:
This land was founded to be free

This land ain't your land, this land is our land
So shut your piehole, you can go pound sand
From the bitter clingers to Barack Obama:
This land was founded to be free

Who should have quickly become a disarmed guard, swarmed by pi$$ed off geezers. I wonder what the rules of engagement are for Park Rangers?

At every turn obama takes us closer and closer to an old East German like society. Papers! You have no authorization for this activity! ...

It is the parable of a frog in hot water. Ten years ago, if the feds had stood up and enacted or admitted all these things at once - NSA spying, government controls on travel, fast 'n furious, letting Muslims kill ambassadors, infringements and attacks on the entire Bill of Rights, etc. we would have marched on DC and demanded accountability, prosecution, and removal from office. That is not just from the Executive Branch but many from Congress too. But gradually, we have watched our freedoms and liberties eroded. It is sickening.

And yes, I believe there is a huge political element to this - not just a primal lust for power and control. If former President Bush had done half the things obama has done the liberals and MSM's heads would've exploded.

Looks like following orders (even if they are plainly illegal) comes natural to a lot of people.

Yes. They are afraid of their co-workers and superiors. They are afraid of losing what little they have. Fear and intimidation are powerful motivators. It takes a lot of backbone and conviction to stand up to it.

Will a freedom and liberty loving America survive this assault by the likes of obama, Reid, Pelosi, and Holder? I don't know. I wish I could say of course, we'll rise to the occasion! But honestly, I don't know...

Excellent analogy. Plus the NPS, by accepting the bus company’s $300 entrance fee is guilty of a breach of contract for denying normal access for which the fee was paid. In a normal lawful society, the NPS would not only be liable to refund the fee, but for at least a portion of the travel expenses of everyone on the bus.

Indeed it looks like The Department of the Interior already has control over 20% of the country already:

And since WE THE PEOPLE are the government, they work for US, not for some Washington bureaucracy. Past time to go 1776 on their sorry @$$e$.

The entire staff of the Nazi Park Service needs to be fired.

Those who have no extreme envirowhacko positions, and who understand who the f*** they work for should replace them.
