In Colorado --- Some Hunting & Fishing

Second Season of Elk hunting near Fairplay
Too there were no Elk to be found, But, a great place for Photos

Old log cabin, we started a fire in the fireplace to keep off the cold





We were not far from Spinney Reservoir

With the Elk Missing in action, decided to go fishing :)




All of the trout in this lake are big This guy is about to go into the net


The rules for this lake are: the trout must 20 inches or bigger to keep
This guy was about 18 inches, went back in the lake, since I could not keep the fish, I took pictures of the so called smaller ones


The catch limit of the 20 inch or over is ( 1 )

The rainbows here have a purple color to them
I did catch one at 20 1/2 inches,
Cooked him for dinner, was big enough to feed 4 hungry hunters with one fish ....  Umm

Sorry for the noise on video,,, need to learn how to edit, and find a editor

Go anywhere .. Full Timing Rig .... Military Style

There is a new Cabella's store on the north end of the Denver Metro area on I-25.
I was there this last week and noticed this rig and stopped to check it out.

It is quite heavily modified, besides the obvious military truck ( which looks pretty much stock )

 The fifth wheel is quite the unit, I noticed the wood burning stove stack at the back, the fifth wheel hitch area has been closed in, the trailer was changed to a bumper pull style, HD sat dish at the front of the trailer, a Honda 3000 watt  generator is mounted on passenger side of the trailer, solar powered outdoor lights,





I am sure there are many more modifications that are not seen, the military trailer has a paper plate, not sure how he tows it...

I would dare say this thing can go just about anywhere..

This reminded me of a rig I saw in Quartzsite a couple of years back

Stand Up Americans

A couple of blog posts that cut through all of the drama...

Stand Up Americans

Paul Craig Roberts
In less than 2 days, if the Treasury secretary can be believed, the Treasury will not have enough money to pay all its bills and will have to prioritize.
This doesn’t mean default, as interest on Treasury bonds, notes, and bills will be right up there with the military and NSA. If Washington defaults on its bonds,
 Washington’s power will be gone with the wind regardless of whether the Treasury pays the military.

Whatever the outcome, Washington has already cooked its goose. Washington’s prestige and credibility have been hammered. 

China, Washington’s largest foreign creditor, has responded to Washington’s inability to govern itself with a call for a de-Americanized world. The state news agency, speaking for the Chinese government, said that the “days when the destinies of others are in the hands of a hypocritical nation have to be terminated, and a new world order should be put in place.”

China does not mean by “a new world order” the conspiratorial concept popular on the American right-wing. 
 What the Chinese government means is a departure from the American world order based on the US dollar as world reserve currency and US financial imperialism.

China has clearly had enough of Washington’s hubris, arrogance, and irresponsibility as the lack of diplomatic language makes clear: “Instead of honoring its duties as a responsible leading power, a self-serving Washington has abused its superpower status and introduced even more chaos into the world by shifting financial risks overseas.” In addition Washington has provoked “regional tensions amid territorial disputes, and waged unwarranted wars under the cover of outright lies.”

China announced that it has discounted the value of US Treasuries held as collateral against futures trades, and China and the European Central Bank have arranged a currency swap in preparation of a US default.
The head of the IMF declared on NBC that Washington must honor its signature and uphold its financial promises.

Clearly, the fact that the “superpower” is less than 48 hours away from being unable to finance its red ink has made the world nervous of American financial leadership.

I believe that at the last minute the crisis will be resolved and, if not, that neither the Federal Reserve nor the White House will permit a default on public debt. Either the Fed will extend a loan to the Treasury or Obama will implement one of the presidential directives put on the books by George W. Bush. Nevertheless, the government’s shutdown and the specter of a Washington default has made a deep impression on the world. Washington’s power has been diminished permanently.

Washington’s economic embarrassment came close on the heels of being exposed as a liar and blocked from attacking Syria. Neither the American people, nor the UN, nor the British Parliament, nor NATO, nor the Russian government would tolerate another Washington act of naked aggression.
With comeuppance following comeuppance, the diminished superpower will be showing less arrogance in the future.

Now that the rest of the world has stood up to Washington, the American people need to stand up to the executive branch, take back their civil liberties, close down the police state, break up the media conglomerates and reestablish an independent press.



The Make-Believe Matrix

16th October 2013

By Zen Gardner

Contributing Writer for Wake Up World

These power crazed would be rulers don’t own the earth. They don’t own you and me. They don’t own all their stupid secret symbols.
 They don’t own the present, they don’t own the future.
They don’t even own themselves.

They’re usurpers, in every sense of the word. And absolutely nothing to fear.

That these invading power freaks striving to control the world should try to lay claim to some secret knowledge and power source that is superior to everything else is a fraud. That they think they can bring on world changing events that result in national clampdowns and population reduction is their personal nightmare in the making.

It’s only true if we submit to it. Our validation and obeisance affirm their intentions. Without that it would immediately crumble into dust.

Lies have no power unless believed. That’s the power of the awakening.

See Through It For What It Is

We need to see it for what it is. A spiritual charade. A flimsy fabrication appearing real that only comes into being when humanity buys into it. Quantum physics confirms this. We get what we focus on and affirm.

While we have to deal with their very real machinations they’ve unleashed to destroy the earth and most of its inhabitants for whatever sick reasons they conjure, they have no superior super-powers to fear. Only those we give them by getting entranced by and believing their lies. At any point humanity can walk away from it and stop supporting it. Soldiers can lay down their guns, police can join with the populace, employees can walk from their jobs, consumers can stop consuming what is wrong, and the media can just be ignored.

This external projected nightmare of a world system is theirs, not ours. That knowledge is extremely powerful. We just have to deal with the fallout from their insanity while eliminating its source – our agreement to it. And we can do so consciously and with great peace of mind and heart in spite of all of their efforts to induce fear.

The fact is, there is no secret but that which is willfully withheld or deliberately ignored. And to the conscious, nothing is hidden that cannot be revealed and turned for the empowerment of our fellow human beings and planet.
Their Puny Pride Is on the Run

So much of the big lie that we’re witnessing on the world stage is simply projected pride – the big, fat, stinking manufactured pride of pathological egomaniacs reinforcing a fabricated world of their ugly, demented imaginations. Along with their demonic spiritual baggage. Whether world conquest piggy-backing on natural and manufactured catastrophes, or attempting to morph humanity and terraform our environment to meet their specifications for world control, it’s all fundamentally defensive.

Yes, defensive. They’re scared. They cannot let things take their natural course. That would mean their demise. They have to forcibly control every aspect they possibly can to prevent humanity from waking up to its full potential. Once we do we just shrug and flick them off like the parasites that they are.

Quickly.

It is they who are running and hiding from something so incredibly powerful they have to erect giant sand castles to hide in with massive security forces while they attempt to exterminate all those who carry this amazing potential to realize Truth. Just witness the defensive fortress attitude of the elites and their housing and militarily protected behaviour for starters. Look at the massive security details surrounding so-called powerful figures. It boggles the mind. What are they afraid of?

Now you see who really has this innate fear in their veins?

And their underlying problem? Us. An awakened and empowered us is what they’re absolutely frightened of. And like the cowardly bullies in the playground, they know their time is just about up. We’re talking together, connecting dots, gathering our wits and growing by the minute in courage and resolve.

Our warfare is a spiritual one. Whether we encase this understanding in one of the more classic socio-political frameworks or see it completely metaphysically, the play we’re witnessing is nothing to fear no matter what it appears to be blown up into. The feverish power struggles and social engineering taking place on such a massive scale are all based in fear.

What we need to realize is this fear is first of all theirs which they project on to us. They know they’re usurpers and self-serving maggots feeding off of the body politic. They know they’re heartless bastards out for what they have deemed is important. And it is contrary to everything natural and nourishing.

They know this.

And ultimately this fear is fear of you, and fear of me. Because we represent the potential connection to Truth that they are consciously denying. That awareness of Truth signals their inevitable downfall.
They Cannot Create – They Can Only Hijack and Pervert

While we know this supplanting of authority is true about their false hierarchy and self-imposed “ownership” of lands, natural, and even human resources, they’ve also cleverly tried to co-opt the inherent powers of the so-called mystery schools, the language of which is fundamentally numbers and symbols.

What people forget is almost all of these symbols occur naturally with wonderful positive, regenerative properties. What these lying entities have done is simply attach negative and destructive and abusive connotations to anything they can.

There are many examples of how these usurpers cannot create but only imitate and pervert. Sacred geometry, occult symbolism–even empowering behaviors they turn into occult satanic rituals. They pervert naturally occurring patterns and energies because they cannot allow natural courses to take place. It nullifies their existence. This is clearly evidenced in the usurpation we see in today’s logos from so-called secret symbols of the ancient mystery schools.

This is another shadowy charade of images that only gets power from what one takes on through ignorance. These crafty techniques then cause the unsuspecting to derive the energies these parasitic forces project into this secret language as in the case of satanism, saturnalia, the churches of Babylon, Freemasonry and the like. This permeates society in occult symbolism, whether it be the layout of cities like D.C and the Vatican, film, musical and art references, or corporate logos, all laden with messages.

It’s kind of a universal copyright infringement in the alterverse of the fear porn industry. The authority is not theirs, it’s attempting to mimic or imitate natural laws and energies. When you wake up and see this it’s absolutely pathetic what worms these entities are. Their only power is in our fixation on and attention to their shenanigans. It really is that simple.

This is all to expose how once you’re wrapped up in their world of interpretation with an abusive, violent world around you to back it up, you begin to think the lie is true. Therein lies their only power. Your “belief” and entertaining of their notions, empowered to appear real only by your participation.

Turn it off. Turn off their sources–mainstream media, staged events, manipulated music, shallow publicity, even phony personal responses and relationships.

It’s time to get real.

Remember, their whole plan is designed to replace reality with a false matrix of power that’s fed by fear. Don’t dwell on it, and see it for what it is. And reverse the flow. Their flaky construct will crumble.

Each one of us changes the direction of Spaceship Earth.
Conclusion – Uncork the X-Factor

By our very clarity of understanding, our conscious awareness of the Truth and our not submitting to their web of deceit, we throw off the illusory shackles of the would-be controllers. Just one person’s total lack of fear, not giving any obeisance to their societal, political, economic or physical oppression network, is a flame in their flimsy cobweb. And those burn up quickly!

Be it.

They’re lying usurpers – but it only works with our agreement. Our conscious awareness, as vague as that may seem to some, is the ultimate weapon. And it starts with waking the hell up and then keeping on waking up…and rattling as many other cages as we can in the process. It’s not always a smooth process, but it requires honesty and guts.

And cutting the bullshit.

As our collective consciousness grows more awake and aware it gains power and tremendous momentum. The x-factor is Spirit which manifests in many ways, including in the profound form of synchronicity. And then when each of us responds to Universal consciousness things change dramatically. Life’s signs become increasingly apparent and start challenging and leading our lives more and more, activating us in ways we never knew could have been realized or could have had such powerful influence.

With each and every wake up the war is won.

It was won in the beginning. Stand on that. We need to stop believing the illusions around us and learn to act on our true conscience.

At that point it becomes now. Really now.

That’s our event horizon. Be there.

Love, Zen

OMG Food stamps cards do not work in some states

 From  HOLLYWOOD  Ca.   WOW
If you have 6 Children, maybe at least have some extra food  .... ??? Ramen Noodles ?  Soups ?
Seems she has money for nice clothes





Update....



The Government controlled media all have the same story:

Wonder if the trucker slow down is affecting deliveries ??

72 Hour Warning: Grocery Stores Across the Country Turn Away Hungry Shoppers as EBT System Crashes 

Abandoned carts full of food were a frequent sight in grocery stores Saturday morning, as the EBT food assistance debit system stopped working without warning.

According to a Xerox spokesperson, a routine system check by the vendor resulted in system failure, leaving assistance recipients across the country with no way to buy food.

Xerox spokeswoman Karen Arena confirmed via email Saturday afternoon that some Electronic Benefits Transfer systems are experiencing temporary connectivity issues. She said technical staff is addressing the issue and expects the system to be restored soon. U.S. Department of Agriculture spokeswoman Courtney Rowe underscored that the outage is not related to the government shutdown. Xerox runs EBT card systems for 17 states and all were affected by the outage. (source)

Users of EBT (Electronic Benefits Transfer) cards in California, Ohio, Michigan and several other states are unable to make purchases due to connectivity issues.

But it gets worse…

Xerox is notifying retailers to revert to the manual system, meaning SNAP customers can spend up to $50 until the system is back online. SNAP recipients should call the 800 number on the back of their card, and Xerox will guide them through the purchase process. (source)

However, that system is not working either – it’s “closed for maintenance.”

Shoppers left carts of groceries behind at a packed Market Basket grocery store in Biddeford, Maine, because they couldn’t get their benefits, said fellow shopper Barbara Colman, of Saco, Maine. The manager put up a sign saying the EBT system was not in use. Colman, who receives the benefits, called an 800 telephone line for the program and it said the system was down due to maintenance, she said.

“That’s a problem. There’s a lot of families who are not going to be able to feed children because the system is being maintenanced,” Colman said. “No one should put maintenance in during the daytime.” (source)

Despite the fact that government workers report orders from the Obama administration to “make life as difficult for people as we can”, the nation is assured that the EBT failure is in fact due to server issues and NOT due to the government shutdown.

Keep in mind that the truckers are also on a general strike this weekend, protesting in Washington DC against high gas prices, rampant unemployment, and corruption in the US government.

Between October 11th and 13th they have called for a general strike, asking truck drivers around the country to refuse to haul freight, a move that could carry with it a significant impact on the American economy.

The protest calls for truckers to make their way to Washington D.C. in a massive convoy in an effort to call attention to, among other things, the Benghazi cover-up, the recent attack which killed 25 members of Seal Team 6, ever rising fuel prices, and claims that President Obama has engaged in treasonous crimes. (source)

Things are already starting to get ugly. ZeroHedge posted the following Tweets.

NOBODIES EBT CARD IS GOING THRU AT WALMART

“@Creamteam_bitch: Government done shut down the #EBT cards in Ga… These folks going crazy in walmart lol”swearrrr

EBT is down so Walmart is complete chaos right now, so glad I’m leaving in 2 hours

EBT down at walmart and MF going crazy!

THEY DONE SHUT DOWN EBT CARDS IN MISSISSIPPI…… Walmart fulla mad motha fuckas right now

I almost just killed some people at Walmart, EBT is apparently down today #madhouse

This is your 72 hour warning.
If you don’t already have a two week supply of food and water, now might be a good day to go stock up, just in case this is the beginning of a bigger crisis.

 The first three days after a major event are your window of opportunity to get prepared, based on the just-in-time food supply in grocery stores and the amount of food most people store in their homes.

 If the EBT failure continues, look for the situation to get progressively worse.

The Truth About The Government Shutdown

Link to site
The government "shutdown" is a hoax. It is pure theater designed to make life as miserable as possible for Americans while the government keeps collecting taxes, racking up debt expenditures, running foreign wars and doing all the unconstitutional things government does these days. It is now becoming obvious to nearly all Americans that the Obama administration is running a pernicious, punitive, selective "shutdown" that's designed to hold the American people hostage until Obama gets his way. His "ransom demand" is total capitulation to his demands for endless spending, the total takeover of medicine by Obamacare, and the centralization of power in the hands of the few.

The Obama administration ran a similar gambit a few months back when it started releasing thousands of felony criminals from U.S. prisons, claiming it was forced to do so because of sequestration budget cuts.

Today, the Obama administration has barricaded World War II memorials, shut down access to private businesses, closed parts of the OCEAN, closed tourist viewing areas of famous landmarks and gone out of its way to attempt to inflict suffering and inconvenience upon the People of America. It has punitively blocked access to a private hotel and even kicked people off private lands as part of the government's shutdown theater.

Preventing tourists from enjoying national monuments

American Thinker magazine reports that, "Feds [are] placing cones along highway viewing areas outside Mount Rushmore barring visitors from pulling over and taking pictures of the monument - and then lying about the reason. That's right. The National Park Service is trying to prevent people from even seeing Mount Rushmore."

As the Washington Times reports:

The Park Service appears to be closing streets on mere whim and caprice. The rangers even closed the parking lot at Mount Vernon, where the plantation home of George Washington is a favorite tourist destination. That was after they barred the new World War II Memorial on the Mall to veterans of World War II. But the government does not own Mount Vernon; it is privately owned by the Mount Vernon Ladies' Association. The ladies bought it years ago to preserve it as a national memorial. The feds closed access to the parking lots this week, even though the lots are jointly owned with the Mount Vernon ladies.

Just yesterday, the government was caught in a total hoax of faking a shutdown of the Amber Alert website. The whole thing, much like everything else in the Obama administration, was utterly contrived.

The entire USDA website is now following the same hoax pattern, feigning death even though bandwidth providers never cut off service. This is yet another contrived example of "shutdown theater."

What the Obama administration wants to keep open, of course, stays open. For example, an immigration rally has just been approved to take place on the "closed" national mall. What's clear from this is that Obama's cohorts will magically open federal lands for their own favored projects while selectively closing federal property for projects desired by the People.

I call it "crony shutdown-ism."

Obama holds America hostage to his outrageous demands

Everything you are witnessing here isn't a "government shutdown," folks. This is Obama holding a gun to the head of the American people, keeping the nation hostage until Obama gets 100% of what he wants: unlimited debt spending, a socialist sick-care system called "Obamacare," and a blank check from Congress to bury our nation in even more debt from which we can never escape.

What's next, are they going to shut down all the interstates? Block deliveries of gasoline? Halt food supplies to local grocery stores? At what point does this "shutdown theater" equate to acts of state-sponsored terrorism against the American people?

The message from Obama is clear:
 Give me all your money or I'll make life miserable for everyone. 
This is the tactic of a mafia organization, not a legitimate government.

Obama administration utterly abandons its duty to the People

That our own government would turn to such tactics is absolutely disgusting. 
In order to force Obamacare down the throats of everyone, Obama would dishonor our war veterans, intentionally interfere with tourists, fake a government website shutdown, and even order park rangers to make life as miserable as possible for visitors.

This administration has no sense of integrity, nobility or serving the interests of the American people. Like any mafia group, the Obama administration exists solely to serve its own interests and increase its power at any cost, regardless of the cost to society.

Can you imagine the outcry from the mainstream media of George W. Bush had selectively closed a World War II veterans memorial? He would have been accused of dishonoring America's greatest generation. But somehow when Obama does it, the media applauds. That'll show 'em! Shut it down, 'Bama!

In this theater of the absurd, you are now watching the final act play out

This staged government shutdown isn't the only theater taking place in Washington today.
 I'm hearing more and more rumblings about the looming global financial implosion, and the Fed is furiously trying to print money as fast as it can in order to create the theatrical illusion that the economy is fundamentally sound.

The Obamacare delusion is pure theater as well. Virtually the entire national IT infrastructure for the system is non-functional. Online exchange signups are hitting a 99% failure rate.
 The person that Obama rolled out as a "successful" enrollee turned out to be a total fraud.

No one in the media can seem to locate any large number of people who have actually signed up.
 The White House is now refusing to answer questions asking how many people have actually enrolled (probably because they can't find anyone who actually has).
 The entire system is a hoax. 
Underneath the Obama mesmerism and cult followers, there's almost no one who is actually enrolled in Obamacare after millions of people already tried!

It's also an IT nightmare. Now in its second week, the Obamacare online exchange system and Healthcare.gov is admittedly suffering from "design flaws" and critical errors. These are far more than mere glitches; this is a wholesale faulty design from the start.
This ship ain't gonna sail, folks, and the whole project is going to have to go back to the drawing board to be re-designed from scratch.

As the Wall Street Journal reports:

Information technology experts who examined the healthcare.gov website at the request of The Wall Street Journal said the site appeared to be built on a sloppy software foundation. Such a hastily constructed website may not have been able to withstand the online demand last week, they said.

Americans are fed up

In many ways, you are now watching the final act of government theater.
 It's not over 'til the "fat lady sings," as they say, but she's most definitely warming up and preparing to belt out her final operatic performance.

Millions of Americans are completely fed up with the shenanigans of bad government.

They've had it.
 Coming up in a few days, thousands of truckers are about to converge on the highways in D.C. and shut the roadways down.

Conservative talk show host Mark Levin is now warning that Obama is running what is essentially a "coup" to overthrow the Constitution and remove Congress from all future spending decisions.
 This effectively turns the office of the President into a dictatorship. Congress will become nothing more than a useless vestige of the old republic.

Even other nations are starting to worry about the impending collapse of the U.S. government and its debt. China issued a stern warning today, urging America to "ensure the safety of the Chinese investments" by making sure the U.S. doesn't go into default. China, you see, holds hundreds of billions of dollars in U.S. debt. And it doesn't want America to go belly up anytime soon (although China surely knows it's headed that way sooner or later).

Obama's position is that the U.S. should be indebted even more to China, Japan and the rest of the world. That's why he's demanding the debt ceiling be raised. The problem with socialism, of course, is that sooner or later you run out of other people's money. But there's a lot of damage that can be done until that day of reckoning arrives, so Obama and his cohorts are going to suck the finances out of the entire global economy to fund their socialist programs such as Obamacare, Obama phones, the fast-expanding government food stamp program, and any other popular giveaways they can dream up.

Remember: This is all being done to enforce a rip-off, monopolistic health care nightmare -- the Affordable Care Act -- that's so unpopular, Obama has to hold the entire nation ransom in order to try to shove this monster down people's throats.

The end of government credibility

What you are really watching here, folks, is much more than merely the last act of government theater:
 You are watching the end of government credibility in the minds of the American people.

The idea that government functions as an institution "for the People, by the People and of the People" is now a cruel joke. 

Obama has turned government into a weapon to be used against the People in order to force their compliance with a blatantly unconstitutional, unethical, unworkable law that is the cornerstone of Obama's disastrous legacy.

Your government is now your mafia.
Your doctor is your dealer.
Your health plan is a shakedown.
The playbook of Obama lackeys is a tome of dirty tricks. Remember, this is the administration that literally smuggled illegal guns into Mexico in order to cause an explosion of gun violence that could be blamed on gun owners.
 This is an administration that now shoots dead a young black mental patient who makes a wrong turn at Capitol Hill with her car.

This is an administration that believes it has the legal right to force you to buy anything it wants you to buy, including rip-off health insurance policies, because it now claims ALL authority over ALL commerce, including what you decide to do with your own discretionary income (if you have any left after paying taxes, anyway).

This is an administration that selectively targeted "patriot" non-profit groups for harsh IRS audits. This is an administration that promised to label GMOs then betrayed the American people by secretly negotiating an international treaty that would outlaw GMO labeling globally. This is no longer a representative government at all: it is a tyranny of force and firepower.
 Obama is not the President; he is the head of an occupying criminal mafia.

100% chance the government will confiscate your private wealth as it collapses

It is now clear to me that as this government goes into its slow-motion collapse, it's going to wreak total economic havoc on the entire nation and destroy as much as possible as it falls.

I am making a public prediction right here -- with 100% confidence -- that this government will, without any hesitation, seize private bank accounts and pension funds in order to avoid going into default itself. This will of course be described by the thieving government as a way to "protect" your private funds and back them up with the "full faith and credit of the United States government."

But what faith and credit are they talking about?
 Faith has been destroyed. "Credit" has already gone far beyond the point of no return.
 This government is never paying back its creditors.
 The plan at this point is to simply ride out the explosion of the money supply for as long as possible, and then declare Martial Law when the whole thing collapses and the masses lose everything.

Obamacare itself is not even the real problem in all this. Obamacare is merely the symptom of a disease called "government greed and corruption."

Like anybody else, people in government desire unlimited power, and they are willing to do absolutely anything to get it, including holding a gun to the head of the American people and making ransom demands that must be met if we all want government services turned back "on."

It's all just "shutdown theater." It's the Cirque du Soleil of Big Government, except that in this circus, all the acrobats are over-medicated diabetics, and therefore the entire show is pulled off with high wires, smoke and mirrors instead of actual acrobatic talent.

That's the Obama way. Pure theater. 100% illusion and rhetoric. And you have a front row seat to watch all the B.S. unfold right before your very eyes... how fortunate!

Senior Citizens held by armed guards at Yellowstone National Park

 Just another story of  thugs with badges


Earlier this week a group of Senior Citizens were making their way to Yellowstone National Park to see the sights, what they saw was far from what they ever expected to see here in America.
The seniors, and thousands of other people on tour buses, found themselves inside Yellowstone National Park just as the Government Shutdown started. When they tried to make their way out of the park, they were confronted by armed park police who locked them inside a Yellowstone National Park hotel.
Rangers then systematically started to remove visitors out of the park. Buses were told not to stop anywhere on the 2.5 hour trip out of the park, and banned the buses from even stopping at private bathrooms along the route.
To ensure the buses had nowhere to stop along the route, park rangers threatened a private dude ranch, where tour groups normally stopped during the tour, that their license would be revoked if they allowed buses to stop and use their facilities.

TAKEOVER OF AMERICA: Seniors held by Armed Guards in National Park & Feds Arrest Vietnam Vets for Visiting Memorial

Armed Guard to Yellowstone Tourists: “You Can’t Recreate” - See more at: http://www.thedailysheeple.com/armed-guard-to-yellowstone-tourists-you-cant-recreate_102013#sthash.NoslZ8xD.dpu

Armed Guard to Yellowstone Tourists: “You Can’t Recreate” -




A group of Yellowstone National Park tourists felt the wrath of The Shutdown last week when their trip was interrupted by armed rangers.

The group of 41 senior citizens from around the world was scheduled to spent two nights at the Old Faithful Inn. On Monday, they spent the day touring the area.

On Tuesday, they headed out for their second day of sightseeing in America’s oldest and most popular national park.

Gordon Hodgson, the tour director, pulled the bus over to let his group take pictures of a large herd of bison. An armed park ranger pulled up behind them and ordered them to get back in their bus, saying they couldn’t “recreate” and could be charged with trespassing.

Hodgson, who paid a $300 fee the day before to bring the group into the park, argued that the seniors weren’t “recreating,” they were just taking photographs.

“The armed ranger said, ‘Sir, you are recreating,’ and her tone became very aggressive,” said Pat Vaillancourt, one of the tourists in Hodgson’s group.

“She told me you need to return to your hotel and stay there,” Hodgson said. “This is just Gestapo tactics. We paid a lot to get in. All these people wanted to do was take some pictures. The national parks belong to the people. This isn’t right.”

The group returned to the Old Faithful Inn. The hotel is located adjacent to the Old Faithful geyser – which was, of course, blocked off by Barrycades.

According to Vaillancourt, armed rangers stayed at the door to the hotel.

“They looked like Hulk Hogans, armed. They told us you can’t go outside,” she said. “Some of the Asians who were on the tour said, ‘Oh my God, are we under arrest?’ They felt like they were criminals.”

Last week, World War II veterans attempted to visit their memorial in Washington D.C., only to find that Obama had issued an order to close the memorial and access would be forbidden.

Visitors to other national parks and memorials have experienced the same frustration and disappointment.

This is just more jackbooted thuggery from President Stompy Feet and The “Spite House”, and it looks like it isn’t going to end anytime soon.

Civil Mutiny from Florida

Mutiny: Retired Navy captain plans blockade to protest closure of Florida waters


While these boats were on display during the opening day of the Miami International Boat show on February 12, 2009 in Miami, Florida, boats may soon gather in a display of mutiny against the closing of Florida's fishing waters.Examiner – by Patricia Campion

“As you are well aware,” wrote Retired U.S. Navy Senior Chief Geoff Ross — in a message posted by Fred Brownbill on Save America Foundation Sunday — the federal government “has illegally and unconstitutionally closed state fishing and navigational waters within the 12 mile boundary of state waters.”
When logging onto the U.S. Department of Interior website, visitors are greeted with this message, posted Oct. 1 by the National Park Service:  
Because of the federalgovernment shutdown, all national parks are closed and National Park Service webpages are not operating. For more information, go to www.doi.gov.
Citing Examiner’s report from Saturday – “Feds close Florida oceans: Florida Bay Charter owner says ‘they’re killing us’” — Ross is now calling for “every charter boat fisherman across Florida, Louisiana, Texas and Alabama (who is able) to get his or her vessels ready for underway for a coordinated mission to recover your stolen rights as Americans.”
I want 1000 to 2000 charter boats filling the water way that was closed and confiscated illegally by President Obama under his White House order. DEFY IT ! Its illegal.
“I’m going to fill my waterway with boats,” Ross told Examiner Monday. “Charter boats, rowboats, canoes, kayaks, I don’t care.”
Just fill it. We’re going to fill it.
This will not be the first time Ross has helped organize a show of mutiny over the closing of Florida’s fishing waters.
“I’ve done this before,” Ross said.
On Nov. 7, 2009, more than 100 boats — including about 70 charter boats –gathered to form a blockade of Destin’s East Pass in Fort Walton, Fla. to protest the closure of “snapper season on September 20, 2009 and the amberjack season on October 24, 2009” by the National Marine Fisheries Service.
The flotilla — organized by the Destin Charter Boat Association – was assisted by Ross.
Ross told Examiner that the event was also attended by a couple of Coast Guard vessels.
“But they didn’t try to stop us at all,” Ross said. “They knew I wasn’t going to stand down.”
And now I’m going to do it again.
While Ross said he has already received “quite a few” calls,” he is coordinating with fishing charter boat captains in South Florida’s Hernando County to determine what day would best suit their schedules to launch the new show-of-force blockade.
Ross said it will take about a week to pull everything together.
Ross also told Examiner that he has been discussing the matter with Florida Gov.Rick Scott.
“He’s a good friend of mine,” Ross assured. “I have talked to him personally”
I have sent an action requirement to his chief of staff and they are currently looking at it as we speak.
“I just got off phone with Gov. Scott,” Ross added, “and he’s looking into legal action against Obama.”
After contacting Gov. Scott’s office, Scott’s press secretary — Jackie Schutz – told Examiner by email:
We will get back to you on this.
“The Florida Constitution is very clear in that ownership of all the all navigable waters in the State is in the people as individual State Citizens in their united Sovereignty,” Ross wrote Sunday.
As Ross told Examiner Monday, government shutdown or not, “the federal government has no authority to shut down state waters — period.”
Ross appears to be correct.
Article X, §11 of the Florida Constitution states:
SECTION 11. Sovereignty lands.—The title to lands under navigable waters, within the boundaries of the state, which have not been alienated, including beaches below mean high water lines, is held by the state, by virtue of its sovereignty, in trust for all the people. Sale of such lands may be authorized by law, but only when in the public interest. Private use of portions of such lands may be authorized by law, but only when not contrary to the public interest.
As Ross noted further Sunday, “the Florida Supreme Court spoke to this” by its ruling in the case of Odom v. Deltona Corp. on Nov. 30, 1976.
In reviewing this case, Find Law.com concluded:
The rights of the people of the states in the navigable waters and the lands thereunder, including the shore or space between ordinary high and low waters marks, relate to navigation, commerce, fishing, bathing, and other easements allowed by law. These rights are designed to promote the general welfare and are subject to lawful regulation by the states, and such regulation is subordinate to the powers of Congress as to interstate commerce, navigation, post roads, etc., and to the constitutional guaranties of private property rights.
“DO not fear,” Ross wrote Sunday, “we must come in force. I will lead the first boat across the line if you so choose but this honor must go to a Charter Boat Captain.”
The feds will stand down just like they did in DC at the World War II memorial when Obama barricaded it off. We now have Patriots’ Guard and Vets protecting this site.
As GOP USA reported Friday, “the Obama administration officially” backed down on the WWII Memorial closure.
Asked if his protest flotilla will also cause the administration to back down from its closure of Florida’s fishing waters, Ross had but one thing to say.
I’ll make it happen.

We’ve all heard about the hundreds of thousands of government workers who were furloughed because of the government shutdown, but humans weren’t the only ones impacted. Twenty-eight hard-working Nubian goats were sent home because of concerns about their place of employment being closed by the feds. The goats were hired to take care of a poison ivy infestation in New Jersey’s Gateway National Recreation Area. - See more at: http://www.thedailysheeple.com/shutown-drama-goats-are-furloughed-the-ocean-is-closed-and-jackbooted-thugs-grimly-deter-tourists_102013#sthash.iAUM3gyl.dpuf

Fed Bullies Try to Close the OCEAN



 Really !! 

 

when this little act is over, things will have changed in the minds of the public, this will be a turning point....

Just before the weekend, the National Park Service informed charter boat captains in Florida that the Florida Bay was "closed" due to the shutdown. Until government funding is restored, the fishing boats are prohibited from taking anglers into 1,100 square-miles of open ocean. Fishing is also prohibited at Biscayne National Park during the shutdown. 

The Park Service will also have rangers on duty to police the ban. Of access to an ocean. The government will probably use more personnel and spend more resources to attempt to close the ocean, than it would in its normal course of business.
This is governing by temper-tantrum. It is on par with the government's ham-fisted attempts to close the DC WWII Memorial, an open-air public monument that is normally accessible 24 hours a day. By accessible I mean, you walk up to it. When you have finished reflecting, you then walk away from it.
At least that Memorial is an actual structure, with some kind of perimeter that can be fenced off. Florida Bay is the ocean. How, pray tell, do you "close" 1,100 square miles of ocean? Why would one even need to do so?
Apparently, according to an anonymous Park Service ranger, “We’ve been told to make life as difficult for people as we can. It’s disgusting.”
Centuries ago, King Canute famously failed to command the ocean tide to stop. His display was actually a means to educate his subjects on the limits of royal power. Today, however, our President actually believes he has the power to control the oceans.

Friday, 4 October 2013:
  Americans are being treated to political theater at its finest. It’s not a theater of entertainment, however, but a coliseum of enslavement where in the world of deception, perception becomes reality.

 This theater requires audience participation, where we, the theater-goers, become part of the play. We are a truly captive audience, entranced into mindlessly choosing sides at the frenzied urging of the corporate media and partisan cheerleaders firmly seated behind the microphones and television cameras of the nationally syndicated media. 


As the play progresses, we, the American people, become part of each act, believing that we actually have a voice in this pre-scripted performance. 
We are bombarded with lie after lie, each worse than the previous in an attempt to convince us that we can making a difference by choosing and cheering seemingly opposing sides on the stage before us. 
The biggest lie of them all is that there are not two sides, but just one. It’s “them versus us” in a fight to the death playing out before us in this 21st century Shakespearean tragedy. It’s not just death, but the premeditated murder of the middle class and anyone without a reservation at the globalists’ table. And the space at that table is limited.


The actors of this play are ostensibly at odds over funding the Affordable Care Act while a peek behind the curtain tells a different story altogether. Like any play, the ending of this has already been determined.  The ending, however, is not the same as written in the commemorative program you were given upon your arrival at this theater.

The house lights have been dimmed not just for the performance, but to induce us into a hypnotic trance further enabled by the media mouthpieces of malice. As you gradually become accustomed to the theater lighting, you’ll see that it’s not just a play, but you’re being played. You’re being manipulated into believing that the government shutdown is the actual plot of the play, while it is merely the method to continue the lie of a fictitious political paradigm.

Audience members who remain seated and captivated by the stellar performances of the actors, while maintaining a mental death-grip on the media cheering “their side,” are sadly in the majority. They are yelling at just above a throaty whisper at us and others who see beyond and behind the curtain, telling us to sit down and shut up, as we are reaching a critical moment in the performance.

Meanwhile, the clock is ticking toward the October 17th deadline when we the U.S. will officially run out of money in this scripted, manufactured crisis. As the play builds up to its epilogue of evil, it serves its critical purpose of entertaining the masses and diverting our attention from the real issue, which is the killing of the U.S. dollar. The premeditated murder of the United States Petro-dollar is the real act taking place behind the velvet curtain. The play merely buys the actors, the murderers of the working class and the world as we will have once known it, time to arrange their own exodus from this coliseum turned theater.

The actors. aided by the media of malice, continue to perform brilliantly and are effectively distracting the majority of us through the final curtain call. Then, as the actors take their bows amid thunderous applause by the uninitiated, the majority of the audience will never see “it” coming.

They will not see the stagehands open the cages of the lions while simultaneously closing the doors and blocking the exits. The  thunderous applause at the curtain call will hide the sound of the engines on the Lear jets and the rotor noise on the helicopters that will whisk the actors to safety, away from the unspeakable carnage that was planned from the beginning.

By the time the screams from those who remained dutifully seated become unbearable, the globalist bankers, the money changers, the power brokers pulling the strings of the political puppets, will be far from earshot. When the house lights are turned on, the remaining theatergoers who survived will suddenly awaken to a different life. For it was never about what was seen, but always about what was hidden.

 It was never about the government shutdown, but the shutdown of the majority. The same majority that continues to cheer for their side, unable or unwilling to comprehend that there is only one side. Their side.


How concerned would you be if President Obama were promoting revenge — using government resources — against conservative thought and activism? Recently I viewed two e-mails — one from President Obama and the other from a Regional Director — sent to all employees — of a very powerful federal agency. These e-mails were marked confidential.
I am not sure why an e-mail, sent to thousands of uniformed federal employees, would be marked confidential. Suffice it to say the content of these e-mails revealed the next step of Obama's sinister agenda. Vilify conservative ideology and sanction acts of revenge against conservatives within the community of government employees. If you think the IRS scandal was intimidating, imagine what it will be like when all federal employees view conservatism as an enemy.
I cannot reprint or even quote these letters for fear of compromising and endangering another person for innocently revealing these e-mails. Obama's e-mail could not be copied or excerpted. Therefore, I will paraphrase the content.
The letter from the Regional Director (again the name of the agency cannot be revealed) covers guidelines for furlough, the suspension of all vacation and sick leave, and the mandatory furloughing of all non-exempt employees. It also states that non-furloughed employees will not be paid for the duration of the shutdown or until appropriations are approved through the passage of a continuing resolution, currently stalled in the US Congress. It goes on to warn employees that if they choose not to work during the shutdown they will be furloughed indefinitely.
I do not know about you, but if my boss told me I would have to work without a paycheck or be furloughed, I would not be happy. I would be looking for someone to blame and I might even look to execute some form of revenge for this transgression. Government employees are worried, and that worry is about to turn into anger. Anger directed at those they may blame for the government shutdown.
President Obama's e-mail to this agency's uniformed employees provides these people with a target for their anger and revenge: conservatives.
In his letter to members of the government workforce, President Obama lays the blame for the government shutdown and resulting furloughs on the Republican Party, specifically its conservative faction and the Tea Party.
Instead of engaging in responsible dialogue and governing, the President is directing his anger at his political enemies and is inciting government employees to be angry as well.
Without any concern or respect for the safety and security, freedom of speech, and the freedom to protest against Obama mandates, President Obama is providing government employees with the motivation to seek reprisals against his opposition. This is seditious.
The number of federal employees is in the millions. Every department at the federal level is seeing furloughs. Government employees are wondering when they will get there next paycheck. It's likely that all of them received President Obama's flame-throwing email, his personal call to target and vilify conservatives. To organize his federal family communities to fight back against those that oppose his political takeover of America.
If a Republican mayor had told his uniformed employees that black voters support economic decay that leads to the destruction of the community, the public would be outraged. The United States Department of Justice and its Attorney General would jump to the rescue. Civil rights activists would be calling for careers to end and lawsuits brought. Yet the President has told the entire federal workforce that conservative Republicans and the Tea Party are to blame for the destruction of the federal family community. Moreover, his directives are confidential. Knowingly revealing it will cost you your job or worse.
The federal government controls far too many aspects of our lives. Now President Obama wants to control what we think, believe, and can protest, unless, of course, we agree with him and his ideology of enslavement. Then we are welcome to join his federal family and pick over the scraps of liberty while his minions feed on our subjugation.
Obama is gathering his troops and conservatism is their enemy. He just told them so.

Proof ..We the People .. no longer exists ..

Full time RV'ers, HouseBoat Dwellers ..

 Kicked Out of Homes Because of Government Shutdown

So, I guess we really do have a Banana Republic with a Self Proclaimed Dictator.

You  will not see anything like this on any of the RV friendly forms of web sites, or any gov. controlled media, as they are woefully politically correct (esp. RV.net) Just try to post anything about the shutdown ..

From Offgrid survival.com


For the last couple of days we’ve been covering the closure of the National Parks. One thing that’s been largely ignored by most media outlets, is the huge number of people who are now without a home thanks to the government shutdown.

The National Park Service(NPS) has issued a warning to all people residing in the parks — in campgrounds, in rvs in the backcountry, or on houseboats in the marinas — that they will be required to leave the parks by 3 p.m. Thursday and find other accommodations.

Yesterday, I talked to a number of these people as they were being forced out of the National Parks that they call home. From people who live full-time in Houseboats, to Fulltime Rvers who call the backcountry their home, NPS has now started to target those who live in the parks.

Yesterday people were scrambling to figure out what they were going to do as park officials told them they were no longer welcome; many of them pay monthly fees to moor their boats on the lake, and for most of them this is their only home. I talked to a number of people who’ve lived out on Lake Mead for over 20 years who now have no place to go and no way to move their massive houseboats.
To add insult to injury, NPS officials at Lake Mead National Park actually took the time to pull out every single boat dock on the lake. Now people who wanted to retrieve their boats, are unable to do so.

 Link to their site


Some more background information from a fella that is directly involved also


First Explanation in Writing As To Why USFS Is Closing Privately-Funded Parks

From our shutdown order:

Congress has not provided appropriations for fiscal year 2014.  Pursuant to applicable legal requirements in the Antideficiency Act and Attorney General opinions addressing agency operations in the absence of appropriations, the Forest Service is unable to administer federally-owned recreation facilities.  Consequently these facilities will be shut down and posted accordingly with signs provided, with gates locked where they exist, restrooms locked, and water systems shut down.   Visitors in occupied sites would be given 48 hours to vacate, with the area shut down as the last visitor leaves, not to exceed 48 hours.
In other words, we pay all the bills, run the parks in an independent manner, have no USFS people stationed in the parks, but we have to shut down because the Forest Service can no longer "administer" the facilities. 
 Huh?  What day-to-day administration is necessary.  Remember that the USFS itself did not think their presence was necessary, originally confirming on Tuesday that we would stay open as we had in all past shutdowns.

We often go weeks and months in these facilities without ever seeing a USFS manager.  The USFS considers it so important to have staff available to "administer" these facilities that none of their recreation personnel work on weekends or on holidays, by far and away the busiest and most difficult times in these facilities.
PS-  I see the part about the Attorney General.  Did Eric Holder decide to close us?  
Doesn't he know that poor and minorities disproportionately use public vs. private recreation?  Isn't that a disparate impact issue in closing us?


So the saying: All's fair in love, war and politics
(Or something like that)
