I take it that White House Tours are still being blocked as well.

Where are all those flash mobbers when you need them?

This is all further proof that “we the people” mean NOTHING to the all mighty government. Everything belongs to the US Government and we are nothing but a but of worker slaves that get a bone thrown to us once in a while. God help us....

The largest reservoir in the nation, and the 4th most-visited site in the NPS system, is in complete lockdown. I tried to visit Lake Mead today at the remote, unmanned, and amenity-free east end near the Grand Canyon. Barricades across the road and an NPS truck -- with armed ranger-- behind the barricade. Absolutely no access. He told me all boats had to be removed from every marina on the lake too. And no more rafters would be entering the lake from the Grand Canyon.

Governor Jan Brewer: Where the hell are you?! 10th Amendment nullification NOW!!!!!!!!

Down here in the Keys they have tried to close down Florida Bay's 650 square miles to boaters and fishermen. It's working to a degree but this is a slow time in the Keys.Lots of backcountry fishermen/captains depend on revenue/charters in the fall when water temps finally drop and they can get back and catch reds, trout, bonefish, snook, tarpon and the rest.

The deal is if you go back and get caught the first time its a warning and the second time they try and take your boat. There are still guys fishing but nothing like what it should be this time of year.

The Park Service here has been trying to close down more and more of the Park for years,they never quit.

Lets not screw around with blame here.

The blame is entirely on Obama.

He closed the parks as harassment and petty vindictiveness.

They want a revolt. This is just too much in the face to be anything else.

THE STATES SHOULD SIEZE ALL Federal Managed Land, via state eminent domain, kick all Fed employees to the curb(expel Fed from the state)and declare land rightfully returned to state ownerhip.

Then tell the Feds to POUND SAND

The Community Organizer in Chief is leading a strike, and no one is forcing him back to the bargaining table. Yes...another “empty chair” epic fail. The House needs to go back to “Regular Order” and continue to package up multiple, targeted appropriations like they are supposed to do.

Winter’s coming. People really shouldn’t care about temporary closures of national parks.

That’s right – public memorials, monuments and parks remained open under President Clinton and the Republican Congress in 1995/96, causing one to wonder how much inconvenience and financial hardship this partial government shutdown is creating is actually necessary.

Not entirely true. Gateway National Recreation Area was closed back then.

US Army Corps of Engineers (Pittsburgh Dist) have closed the launching ramp and parking lot at Burnsville, on Burnsville Lake in WV. Just two Barackades and a cone. Used the ramp anyway and parked in the marina lot.

The ACE wanted to lock a cable across the road and give the key to the marina owner so that folks could pull their boats out in anticipation of the marina’s annual mid-Oct. closing for the season, but NOT to let others launch. He told them where to put the lock, cable AND the key.

2 things, didn’t want to ask, but I will, cause I think in strange ways, is the Martin Luther King Memorial open and did you know they also install barry-cades at the Marine Corps Iwo Jima Memorial? The Marine vets went in anyway.
