The sacred ground near Shanksville, Pennsylvania where 9/11 Flight 93 crashed twelve years ago after being hijacked by Islamic terrorists has been closed by the National Park Service due to the 'government shutdown.'

The petty and ghoulish Spite House strikes again: Barrycades blocking WWII vets from their memorial, denying death benefits to military families and now this. The Flight 93 National Memorial is an open field for crying out loud. I hope Pennsylvania Governor Tom Corbett plans on working to get the memorial reopened so people can pay their respects.

I hate how the word “sacred” is placed on places having nothing to do with God. It happens all the time now, including by alleged language-savvy media reporters.
The proper word for such places is “hallowed”.
hussein would rather wreck it.
