Like the hundreds of World War II veterans who came to National Mall to pay their respects this week, a group of Vietnam veterans found a barricade blocking the way to their memorial Friday. News4's Mark Segraves said two U.S. Park Service Rangers manning the gate asked that the group respect the government's shutdown but moved aside.
Segraves described the exchange as pleasant and respectful.
The veterans then moved the barricade and walked down to the wall to pay their respects. But a flood of tourists followed even though the memorial is closed to the general public.
U.S. Park Police arrive to the scene, asked everyone to leave and put the barricade back into place.

I don’t think this really happened. After all, the media didn’t show it! /s
Only two people have closed off Normandy. Hitler and Obama
Two rangers to open the area non-essential
Two rangers to chase everyone away, essential
Drink!
We need to take the barrycade, and take him out of his place.
Check it out ... pass it around (may be on this thread already ... I didn’t read all the posts, but saw this on state message board - looking for participants):

We will rally at the War Memorial, object to remove barriers, blocking the WWII Memorial from visits by America’s Honored Veterans. We demand the Regime of Barrack Hussein Obama and his Socialist thugs take down these Barriers.
Rallies for this end will begin immediately. Main Rallies will be on weekends until the regime agrees to our demands.
WE Eagles will Rally on the Mall this Saturday Morning to support the Heroes of World War II - our GREATEST Generation. We - THEY - need as many of us as possible on such short notice to support the Openness of this Sacred Ground and its Accessibility to all who respect it. Please Join us if you can. And if you Cannot join us in Person, Join us in Spirit. Please Offer a Prayer for those many who gave so much - that WE might breathe free and live in Liberty. God Knows that Liberty is under unprecedented stress. WE EAGLES RALLY to Defend it !! See you On the Mall !! I shall have Shirts for all who stand with the Greatest Generation - and their Guardian Eagles ... Semper fi !!
Frederick A. Peterson III National Chairman Guardian Eagles
And? What if they did?
Of course they wont, but don't you think that might just be the catalyst that sparks tens of millions of pissed off Americans to finally say "ENOUGH!", and stand up in defiance as one people?
“And He will raise you up on Eagles wings...bear you on the breath of dawn, make you to rise like the sun...and hold you in the palm of His hand”
Ride swift, and ride safe, Guardian Eagles!!
Knock it off. They will do no such thing.
There's not an ounce of real courage among them.
How about you?
Look at that sight. We are the people experiencing the second coming. Oddly, my only thoughts are for the hippies supporting this nonsense. Every Iota of movement we make right now is very profound. It’s a good time to leave for a week, then come back. The king whore is challenging God. Gosh. I wonder how Jim is. I just had a surgeon threaten to cut out one of my organs. I know what they want to do to Jim.
Your paranoia has reached critical mass. Please seek out medication!
I wonder if that bear can still be awakened. Why aren't there massive demonstrations there now? How much clearer can the fascists make it?
Storming the ‘barry’cades .... will be praying for the Guardian Eagles tomorrow!
I’d love to think so. But I also have a very clear picture of the media spin (Tea Party riot, right wing violent extremists clinging to their guns and religion, blahblahblah)
And in the face of direct police confrontation, I don’t know....any more....how public reaction would eventually go. Sad to say.
At any rate, I was trying to answer the posters question
You got that right. This whole thing is so much BS. I am thinking Soetoro is going to live to regret this scorched earth campaign.
Maybe what we need is rolling thunder to roll into DC and “visit” some of the memorials.
Who gives a damn about "public opinion"? The MSM, the elites, and the scurrilous political actors of both parties will NEVER like us, no matter how far we bend to get along with them.
The press, the Dems, and the RINOs are going to hate on us no matter what we do, so we may as well DO THE RIGHT THING.
