"Tear Down the Barack-cades"
"Around 50 disgruntled Tusayan business owners and residents marched to Grand Canyon National Park's gate today, waving picket signs reading, "America is better than this," "tear down the Barack-cades" and "Does Obama care?"



"Eric Gueissaz, who has lived in Tusayan for more than 40 years said in 1995, the government shutdown didn't affect local residents at all, but now it's different."


"Things were civil," Gueissaz said. "There was no such closure, I think this is barbaric. That's my way of saying it."

Re: "Tear Down the Barack-cades"
"The park closure has been devastating for the employees of Grand Canyon National Park and surrounding communities," said Rev. Patrick Dotson, pastor of Grand Canyon Community Church. "While local concessionaires are supporting their furloughed employees and their families by providing free rent and limited meal support, we anticipated a great need for food relief outside of our ability to sustain through local food donations. We are so blessed that St. Mary's has come to our aid."

Re: "Tear Down the Barack-cades"
"Unfortunately, NPS says it will not (not can't) accept third party or private funds to help open any closed park at this time. Even when we have asked what is the difference between now and 1995, we are told "no." We have worked through our congressional delegation who have also asked, at our request, the president, Secretary of the Interior Sally Jewel and Director of the National Park Service Jon Jarvis why the precedent of 1995 cannot be applied and allow donated funds to be used in this situation. To date we have received no clear answer, other than all parks or no parks open. We are sadly disappointed that national politics are more important than the impact on people's lives. We understand that there are other extremely important impacts on other health, safety and education programs around the nation and we feel for all of them. Yet our community has stepped up to relieve the financial burden to partially meet our needs and the president and congressional leaders say "no," so they can make a point. "

Real reason why they won't accept local funds. They cannot.

The veil is lifted. Agenda 21 is being implemented. Next step controlling the land around the sites that are now UN owned.
