Whats next? Close down all roadways in the country that are owned by the federal govt? The govt owns almost a third of all the land in the country. They going to forcefully remove people from all that land?
They tried to do the same with parks in Wisconsin.

Can someone check on the MLK memorial? I assume it will be the last one left open? No doubt doing a land office bidness?
bam-bam closed that too so blacks can blame the creepy ass crackers.
Let me ask a simple question -
does it somehow cost less to send people to put up barricades and people to stand armed to guard these sites,
than to NOT send people to barricade and guard the sites?
of course it costs more to barrycade and guard them
this was done to make “shutdown” more visible and painful
No expense spared when you’re being spiteful, eh?
