If they should happen to catch them, I'd vote for hanging thme over the Grand Canyon by piano wire wrapped around the boyz.

Only trouble some organization would say that is cruelty and bitch and holler till we buckled under.

I think we have buckled under way to must over the past 50 - 60 years.

We need to do some good ole Southern Ass Whompin once in awhile, plus ship all the illegals back in a slow boat with a hugh hole in the bottom and no life jackets, and only 10 minutes of fuel.

Now, back to our normal programming.

That is sad and thanks for posting this Warren . I'd be willing to bet that's the hardest work these low-lifes have ever done .....You just gotta ask ....Why ?  Picture below from one of my fall color rides.

That is sad.  It is what happens when a large percentage of our population don't have to pay taxes.  It doesn't cost them anything when they destroy stuff so they think it is a good time.  Hopefully there will be someone turn them in for it.

My son-in-law, and until recently my daughter too, is an LE Ranger with National Park Service.  Those kids in that line of work just have way too much territory to each cover.  They are almost ALWAYS alone and have little to no hope of backup if they run into trouble.  If you add that to the fact that the park “guest” are turning more and more disrespectful of LE, the National Parks, our nation’s values, and the chronic understaffing of NPS LEOs, well… I’m glad my daughter got out and I hope my son-in-law will too.  I know he loves it, just as she did, but the way NPS treats its officers, it’s just not worth it for the risk and the pay they get. The next time you see a Ranger, LE or I (Interpretive) simple courtesy and a dab of respect offered to them will really make their day! 

The only good thing about this is that if they ever do find out who the morons that destroyed the sign are, it’s a federal offense.

+1 on giving the LE Rangers a bit of respect. They are not rent-a-cops although some would think so. We were visiting Mammoth caves on a ride a couple of years ago, and while leaving, my lead missed a pedestrian crosswalk sign that dropped the speed limit from 55 to 35. we blew through it at 57 and the LE rangers caught up with up a couple of miles later. They acted real stressed right out of the box, and it took a few minutes of letting them know that stuff happens before they relaxed a little. Then they dropped out ticket to +19 over so we would not need to come back to court. So my lead asked them to pose for some pics with our rides, and we get a $175 memento (each) of our visit. At least my lead bought the beer at the hotel that night.  Grin

Looks like he got a money shot there anyway.

At the place the sign was tore down.


Go figure.

Illegals can be any race or color my friend and don't necessary enter the country from our Southern border. If they had, they probably wouldn't be using a boat to get back. As a US citizen I'd be in deep trouble for breaking our federal laws. It's not right that those who intentionally break our federal immigration laws are protected.

Just let the Republicans get their way and whack even more of an already thin parks budget and your son in law will have even less back up and less resources to work with.

I have to say that I wish people could make ONE post without it becoming political or religious or any kind of bashing - in any way.  This was meant strictly to let Joe know about the sign being torn down and wouldn't be up until after his RIDE this weekend.  What was that?  Yes, a RIDE.

The reason I came across the article was doing some research for a ride....

Ride on - Peace, Love, Dope........
