State By State Guide to National Park Service Sign Removals

The National Park Service is removing NPS signs and exhibits that negatively promote or expound upon derogative American history, false science, imaginary climate change postulations, and other cultural tomfoolery. Thank you, President Trump.

The marxists are addicted to using our stolen tax dollars to denigrate and attack us through government signage.

I remember being in Glacier NP in 2020 and looking at a sign declaring Grinnell glacier will be gone by 2020 while staring at Grinnell glacier.

I’m glad they have the priorities straight.

Good.

In California:

Muir Woods in Golden Gate National Park: The 2021 installation annotated an existing sign with sticky notes that provided previously omitted content on Indigenous history, the role of NPS staff in eugenics movements, and the role of women at Muir Woods.

Death Valley National Park: The Timbisha Shoshone Tribe requested that an exhibit be placed that included the phrases, “these are our homelands” and “we are still here.”

Hope to enjoy our National Parks without all the DEI/PC bullying to ruin the experience.

In the wacky woke world of the Left, the Grinnell Glacier is/was a living entity.

So...... As a living entity, the Grinnell Glacier "identifies" as..... Gone

I had a disagreement in 2010 with my Wife’s oldest sister and her LUNATIC husband while visiting Mrs.BBB333’s mothers house on Mille Lacs Lake in Minnesota (the two sisters, husbands and Mother & Father all live in Minnesota).

The two were each reading the NYTimes on their own iPads.

The sister stated: “Alll the glaciers in GNP will be gone by 2020.”

Husband: “Yes, it’s tragic.”

Me: It’s a lie. A boldface lie. The glaciers are doing fine.”

Them: ‘Sheesh, you are totally uninformed....”

Me: “I know the truth, unlike you.”

Two years ago their son visited GNP with his GF, the posed infant of glaciers and forwarded the photos the the parents...

Later that summer we drove our RV to the middle sisters house (we had an entire retreat to escape to in the RV)...The older sister showed Mrs.BBB33 the photos and said: “it’s sad these glaciers are almost gone...”

MrsBBB333: “The glaciers are GROWING! “

“No, they are almost gone...” was the reply.

Happy I removed Mrs.BBB333 from Minnesota for her own well being...

I never heard of Outside Magazine before but the author sounds woke--avoids the word "slave" and always has "enslaved person." I don't think anyone in the US before the Civil War used that expression.

The signs in question seem to be mostly about slavery, Indians, or climate change. The National Park Service thinks that too few black Americans visit the National Parks but they will go if there are lots of signs about slavery at them.

Frankly, I think most of these should be STATE parks, not national parks.

They should leave them all up and add the name of the bureaucrats who signed off on each one out there.

Add the real sign next to it, especially the cold hard truths about cannibalism among natives, etc.

History should be factual and not slanted to a certain political view. Yes, slavery in all its excesses existed in the US, but we fought a bloody civil war to end it. The civil rights movement was a response to Jim Crow laws in the south promulgated by Democrats. The truth should be made clear.

Trump needs to tell that scumbag “judge” to shove it. What can the corrupt bastards do to him that they haven’t already done?

I think the larger questions areec (1) is a designation as a “national park service” property proper and right to begin with, (2) is a particular sign essential for noting the history and nature of a park.

I think getting a particular site designated as part of the national park system became very political whenever the Dims were in charge and many sites and many signs subverted the core purpose of “the national parks” into tools of politics, which “national parks” should not be about.
