Be sure to warn them about bears trying to steal picnic baskets.

I think the national battlefield parks have a similar problem--very few black Americans visit them. So the ones I have been to try to emphasize black history as it relates to the Civil War or the Revolutionary War.

I can’t wait for the new National Park Racial Quota System to kick in and stop me from hiking unless the requisite number of Blacks and Hispanics are out doing it too that day.

if black people don’t want to attend national parks, it’s somehow Whitey’s fault.

Hell, there are lots of white people that shouldn't be outdoors either. Some people just do the dumbest things out in nature, and Mother Nature doesn't care what color you are, she'll chew you up and spit you out regardless.

All of these tree-huggers that want to protect nature and the environment. I say restrict access to the parks. you can park just outside, but have to hike into the park all by yourself if you want to experience what natures really like. And that also means no motorized emergency vehicles will be coming in either.

Yes, just in the region there’s been a hiker who died and a kayaker caught in a vortex, drowned. It’s brutal out there.
