Mount Rushmore blockage stirs anger in South Dakota
Kristi Noem Facebook Page ^ | Oct. 5, 2013 | Kristi Noem

The federal government has been blocking people from pulling off the side of the road to view Mt. Rushmore! This is government arrogance at its worst.

[The original article is from a source we cannot link to here on FR (Argus Leader).] This was taken from Kristi Noem's page (R-SD).

No satire here. Nor at the WWII memorial, Vietnam Vets or Iwo Jima. Arlington Cemetary is open only to foot traffic, no tour buses allowed in.

I remember when this stuff first started someone joked that Obama was going to put a drapery over Mt Rushmore. Looks like they weren’t far off!

It's way off any Interstate...you get off at Rapid City, drive thru town and go up a state or county road to the entrance. As a "National Memorial", your gold national park pass doesn't get you in for free as it would a National Park.

There are good views from outside the pay/parking entrance, but I don't see how any government goons could stop you from parking roadside.

It’s on state 244. If you go around to the side, you can see it in profile from the roadway.

If I had one of those ‘Applause’ icons, I would give you one for that. This is but the most recent lesson of “Why Voters were stupid to reelect this ‘man’. Some will never learn, they have become fully domesticated Beasts of Burden.

I believe it is a state route, HWY 16 to HWY 244.

Oh shut up. I am no defeatist. We cannot allow these people to win.

Do you agree? Backing down would be the worst thing!

I keep thinking about that song “This Land is Your Land”. I think it was written in opposition to private ownership but it looks to me as though it now could apply against Federal Gov’t ownership.

Attention tourists: The front of Mt. Rushmore is closed but the back is open.

It is not satire. The original article cannot be posted because of copyright issues here on FR. This is legit and the Governor is ticked.

As I see it, the REPUBLCANS need to start taking pictures of these outrageous shut downs and interviews. Since the MSM won’t cover it, they need to buy air time on TV. They must take it to the people and explain that these orders are coming from the DEMS. If they don’t take advantage of this, they lose.

Nobody will do anything about it. Makes me ill, They win!

That's what you said. It sounds pretty damn defeatist to me. I have no use for whiners.

He doesn't want it seen until the remodeling is done.

Duggard offered to have the state take it over and pay for it. NPS said no. Perhaps we should force the issue.

Hope no one's stranded up there.
It's happened before.

He wasn't re-elected. He wasn't elected in the first place.

He is an illegitimate candidate, as well as a Saudi CIA mole.

He was PLACED into the Executive position by fraud!

Until we Ban the queeran, and remove the satanic scourge of islam from our shores, we will be little more than vassals of the house of saud.
