The bus stopped along a road when a large herd of bison passed nearby, and seniors filed out to take photos. Almost immediately, an armed ranger came by and ordered them to get back in, saying they couldn’t “recreate.” The tour guide, who had paid a $300 fee the day before to bring the group into the park, argued that the seniors weren’t “recreating,” just taking photos.“She responded and said, ‘Sir, you are recreating,’ and her tone became very aggressive,” Vaillancourt said.
The seniors quickly filed back onboard and the bus went to the Old Faithful Inn, the park’s premier lodge located adjacent to the park’s most famous site, Old Faithful geyser. That was as close as they could get to the famous site — barricades were erected around Old Faithful, and the seniors were locked inside the hotel, where armed rangers stayed at the door.
“They looked like Hulk Hogans, armed. They told us you can’t go outside,” she said. “Some of the Asians who were on the tour said, ‘Oh my God, are we under arrest?’ They felt like they were criminals.”
A lot of people who were foreign said they wouldn’t come back (to America),” she said.

And this is a perfect reason that the Government should NEVER allow unions within its employee ranks .... their loyalty is to the union not the United States.
LMAO..... Eleven years ago, after 30 years of service, I retired at the rank of Detective Sergeant from my Sheriff’s department. While I remain very proud of my successful service, I am ashamed of what I see as a growing cancer within the entire law enforcement community.
Never heard of Rocky Grass Festival but I suppose you would see a lot of things at a festival that aren’t part and parcel to the community it’s in. We get over 1.5 million visitors each year from all over the world for example. Well, we did but having the three most used routes in and out wiped out might slow that down.
Stuff like this should be documented and name the names involved...
Read up on the conditions of the German Republic during the late twenties until the late thirties. You will find a lot of answers as to what stage we in the United States are today.
I thought he was a taker.

“The historic quarry town of Lyons is just 15 miles north of Boulder in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains.”
The rangers were told to make it as hard as possible.
Why would you go to a bluegrass festival if you don't like the kind of people you find there?
We went to see Earl Scruggs. http://www.biography.com/people/earl-scruggs-20638979

The actions of these federal officers needs to be documents, and names taken. Then entered into a public database for everyone to see the shame they each have brought on America.
Under what circumstances could these cops legally arrest these people and hold them???
If the ACLU weren’t such libtards, I’d think they’d jump at the chance to sue over this one!
obama can’t do these things alone. His Gestapo, who are his paid mercenaries (park rangers) are “just following his orders”
They value their paycheck more than you or their fellow Americans. Just following orders...
THIS was just the article I was looking for. An armed and hostile member of the US National Park Service threatening American citizens and foreigners for wanting to see America.
The U.S. National Park Service, now officially known as the US Nazi Park Stormtroopers.
Sorry that the good ones have to suffer because of the Obama asskissing turncoats.
Time to take names and post photos, as suggested elsewhere here at FR.
Let the “people” know who the enemies of America are.
Addresses and phone numbers might also be posted if legal. Try to get a Staff Directory for each Park and then have at it.
We need some legal advise on just what we can and cannot do.
Wouldn’t want to break Obama’s marxist laws and rule, would we? Huh? Well, would you, punk?”
This tinfoil is killing my head.....I just talked to a person who said they heard that the reason parks are being closed and barricaded, and people removed from their homes, is not because of the shutdown which is a guise, but for government occupation purposes, as encampments. The illegal immigration rally today was intended as a kickoff to the coming storm. (Told my buddy he was crazy, now my brain is on overdrive)
