Perhaps they need to shut down the service altogether and let the parks be monitored by volunteers.

The extent of the barricade mentality ...

It's the 'barry'cade mentality with this shutdown.

Is it time to start congregating at park entrances and increasing the enforcement costs yet? When will people resist?

At the very least, they should revert to the States. Why we have national-level parks at all is beyond me.

These stories (including the cancer-stricken children story) are going to hurt Obama and his party even more as time goes by during the shutdown.

It’s getting more obvious to the American people who really wants and enjoys this government shutdown and it’s going to get more difficult for them not to accept what the House offers.

Isn’t it strange that in a “shutdown” paid government employees man barricades to prevent the public from using public facilities, and private facilities as well?

NPS decided to close Skyline Drive

Went on that a lot of times in the 60s when my father was stationed at the Pentagon. We owned a couple of undeveloped lots in the mountains we used for camping. Carried in our water and dug our latrines. I still have the machete we used to clear each time we went.....Sheffield steel.

There are many properties now owned by the Federal government that would be better off owned by the State.

This shows me again how infiltrated all levels of government - military include - has become of partisan hacks.

No one who works for the federal government can be trusted, IMO. They are all brownshirts.

My thoughts exactly. The states should sue to take them by eminent domain.

From Wikipedia:

Jonathan B. Jarvis (born June 26, 1953)[1] is the 18th Director of the United States National Park Service, confirmed by the United States Senate on September 25, 2009.

He was serving as regional director for the Pacific West Region when, on July 10, 2009, President Barack Obama nominated Jarvis for the directorship following the resignation of Mary A. Bomar on January 20, 2009, the day of President Obama's inauguration.

A career civil servant, Jarvis has been with the service for over 30 years.[2][3][4] Prior to his work as regional director, Jarvis served for three years as the superintendent of Mount Rainier National Park in Ashford, Washington. He was superintendent of Craters of the Moon National Monument and Preserve in Idaho and Wrangell-St. Elias National Park Service & Preserve in Alaska during the 1990s.[5] Jarvis graduated from The College of William & Mary, where he became a member of the Sigma Chi fraternity, in 1975 with a degree in biology.[5]
