'Gestapo' tactics meet senior citizens at Yellowstone
Eagle-Tribune ^ | October 8, 2013 | Staff

NEWBURYPORT — Pat Vaillancourt went on a trip last week that was intended to showcase some of America’s greatest treasures.

Instead, the Salisbury resident said she and others on her tour bus witnessed an ugly spectacle that made her embarrassed, angry and heartbroken for her country....

For many hours her tour group, which included senior citizen visitors from Japan, Australia, Canada and the United States, were locked in a Yellowstone National Park hotel under armed guard.

No landlord has the right to bar entry/access to the legally leased or rented property. The federal government is in gross violation of contract law. Furthermore, each individual is in obvious, knowing violation of the property rights of these leaseholders, and they should be sued as well.

Any agency that behaved in such a despicable, reckless manner should be permanently SHUT DOWN!

I recall the French and Irish taking a *very* dim view of collaborators.

Hear, hear. Transfer all national parks to the states and the DC ones to MD. Then fire the bastards.

You know it has gone bad when the most dangerous wild animals in Yellowstone are the Park Rangers.

I think
Obamas 1st debate with romney was stoned on purpose because they were loosing the liberitariansh “stony” vote.

China will not deal for land with an armed pop.

It all changes when you give them guns! Someone posted here the other day that “we should cut these people some slack because they are just a bunch of Biology Majors that love the outdoors and like to help people” My reply is “ just where did you leave your brain?”

It's very different after they get guns, exactly as you said. I worked for them seasonally and later, as a permanent. I noticed the stirrings of the jackboots way back in the mid-to-late 80s. The park interpreters and bio techs were usually more low-key, at least the low-level workers were (mostly seasonals who were teachers during the school year).

I left for the private sector a long time ago, but many of my friends still work there. It's only gotten worse. Just like when the rangerette Tazed a guy for turning away from her near SF. This was in a newly-fed-seized land area (about a year or two ago now).

The promoted generals are loyal to the zero for whatever reason, same as Chief Justice Roberts.

1) Political leadership: we have to consolidate and fight the fascists with similar tactics, even down to the local school kid level.
2) Gun confiscation under the guise of public safety: they can’t take the guns
3) Political opponents labelled as troublemakers and saboteurs: reveal the truth through billboards and local advertising. Plant the seed of truth. Be outspoken, bring down herod and his illegitimate wife, expose the hypocrisy of the pharisees. Multi media blitz...the zero’s campaign had an ad on the side panel of my yahoo email every time I opened it up SIX months before his last campaign started (even tho it never stopped)
4) Political opponents and critics beaten, imprisoned or disappeared for the sake of national unity: possible if we don’t buy healthcare, but shouldn’t be possible if 1-3 are taken care of and the zero and vice-zero are both impeached and the advisers imprisoned for aiding the enemy of The Great Satan.

I am waiting until 4:00. I told the staffer I wanted to hear from them today and I meant it.

I don’t understand why there is zero resistance. I also don’t understand how 2-3 rangers can intimidate so many. Most of the national parks have a skeleton law enforcement (wanna-be urban jackboots) in the winter. Rarely do those LE-wanna-be’s actually hike or do anything off a trail.

I don’t understand how all of a sudden, there are so many armed rangers all over the place. Unless they’re calling in retirees and anyone who ever worked seasonally, the national parks simply don’t have that many LE workers.

The Inn is privately run, it was being serviced. Your argument is invalid.
