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.

That is a great idea and there should be cameras at the ready should any attempt be made to remove the patriots who are safeguarding the memorials from the Obama regime.
day by day its getting closer!
They can call it, “Occupy Wall.”
awh ,
now ,
can We talk ???
Agreed! Storm the Barrycades and take back our Memorial!
Apparently the message the ‘Bikers’ sent couple of weeks ago didn’t register.
While realizing no where near 2 million bikes/bikers showed up, another siege on DC may be in order?
Don’t really just need them, ANY dissidents will do but they get ‘attention’ whenever they travel in groups...
Tell your congressman. You never what they might be able to use, that slips past them because they’re busy or more focussed on higher things, so to speak.
THIS is the issue every single republican should be highlighting in every speech or public appearance. Show them how petty Obama and the dems are being on this. It’s an wasy win.
I would be afraid to do that after what happened to an unarmed mother driving her car.
There were other options to stopping her.
Yes, the MLK memorial is closed.
There are even some pictures out there of white Park Police escorting a black group out of it. Surprised those aren’t getting more exposure.
I wish the Freedom Riders had stayed a bit longer.
Obama is getting his ass handed to him. The arrogance is
quite appalling.
Hear, hear!
Re-post: Conservatives are missing an opportunity. Obamas behavior re: WWII vets and the memorial is a classic example of his true personality. He is a perverse, callous, vindictive, punishing, overlording s-b.
This shutdown PR stunt has backfired colossally. It exposes Obama for what he is. A mass demonstration is required. The symbolism is unescapable...even for liv's

Weve been told to make life as difficult for people as we can. Its disgusting.
PRUDEN: The cheap tricks of the game(Park Rangers ADMISSION about harassment)
AGREE but how can we do it. He has the gestapo at his command. That is the police of all branches and they will kill.
So this is who is running this country:
Antisocial personality disorder is characterized by a long-standing pattern of a disregard for other peoples rights, often crossing the line and violating those rights. It usually begins in childhood or as a teen and continues into their adult lives.
Antisocial personality disorder is often referred to as psychopathy or sociopathy in popular culture.
Individuals with Antisocial Personality Disorder frequently lack empathy and tend to be callous, cynical, and contemptuous of the feelings, rights, and sufferings of others. They may have an inflated and arrogant self-appraisal (e.g., feel that ordinary work is beneath them or lack a realistic concern about their current problems or their future) and may be excessively opinionated, self-assured, or cocky. They may display a glib, superficial charm and can be quite voluble and verbally facile (e.g., using technical terms or jargon that might impress someone who is unfamiliar with the topic). Lack of empathy, inflated self-appraisal, and superficial charm are features that have been commonly included in traditional conceptions of psychopathy and may be particularly distinguishing of Antisocial Personality Disorder in prison or forensic settings where criminal, delinquent, or aggressive acts are likely to be nonspecific. These individuals may also be irresponsible and exploitative in their sexual relationships.
Don’t they remember, all Vietnam vet’s are crazy?! Obama is picking a fight that he can’t win.
Time to leave empty chairs at the WH gates.
Afraid so! Its a shame. This is a reflection of what America has become. Communist dictatorship.
And duct tape.
