>on a road trip in New Mexico and Arizona (mostly)>all the national parks are closedI thought these were MY parks.Anyway, I picked the part of the country where almost every national park is closed, sucks. Elsewhere most are still open for the most part
>>2844211Democrats want to give our taxes to illegals and think your life is some kind of leverage they can use
>>2844211>the national parks are closedBased retard.
>>2844211>Park>ClosedThe absolute state of Amerilardia.How would they even enforce such closures anyway? LMAO.
>U.S. Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum has ordered national parks to remain "open and accessible" during the federal government shutdown that began on October 1, 2025
>>2844227This is completely ignoring the fact that PARKS DON'T CLOSE ANYWAY. Anyone that's ever been to one knows that the "gate", which typically doesn't even exist, is left open after hours for people to come and go as they please. I can think of only two parks that are the exception to this, and actually have a closing time. The first one is Dry Tortugas, which makes sense given its location, and the second one is Petrified Forest National Park.OP is a fuckin ijit.
>>2844222>>2844226>>2844227Like I said, most parks are open and running as well as they can be while understaffed. But some are gated and closed. You can walk around the gate I guess but you can't do much anyway, either things are too far or still totally inaccessible without tours. The national parks that are mostly closed right now are cave parks, parks that protect historical ruins, and some other "special" parks like Petrified Forest that have to worry big time about theft of resources. Also White Sands because of military shit, though I think they also have concerns about people taking the sand. So almost all the parks I wanted to visit in this region of the country. Pretty sure parks all have their own set of codes and laws and hopping a gate can still get you in trouble during the shutdown. Which is hardly exclusive to this time of shutdown, some parks like Petrified Forest are only open for certain hours of the day anyway, or certain parts of any park can be closed for construction or whatever. If it's closed it's closed and they can fuck you if you trespass.>>2844235Parks that are currently gated and closed include Mesa Verde(the good part), Petrified Forest, Carlsbad Caverns, White Sands. Also many National Monuments etc. including Gila Cliff Dwellings, El Morro, Aztec, Chaco Culture, Bandelier, Valles Caldera. There are others in other parts of the country but these are all national parks I hoped to visit on this trip.
>>2844240Whatever man just go do something else There's a ton of wild west shit around thats always fun Go to the right place you could even get in a gunfight with mexican banditos just likes the good ole days
>>2844242I'm still having fun. plenty of shit to do elsewhere. derailed plans sometimes make for the best time actually
>>2844220Illegals already don’t have access to Medicare or Medicaid or the ACA discounted insurance groups unless they are committing identity fraud. The Republicans telling you that the budget hold up is about this are telling you a lie. The cuts they are trying to push through deny funding to programs for poor Americans, not illegals. They need to sweat the poor to pay for the tax cuts for millionaires and billionaires and for the free bombs and missiles for Israel.
>>2844246That doesnt even matter. Hospitals just treat them anyway and distribute the costs among people who do have insurance.
>>2844220Republicans want to give your taxes to billionaires, sell of the public lands and think your life is joke.
>>2844248>were talking about emergency room needsSo, you are in favor of killing people rather than helping them. got it.
>>2844260Yeah it was Hillary Clinton who was trying to sell land to Russia... uranium one dealNot a Republican or Democrat
>>2844211>MY parks.Nope. They are Trump's parks.
>>2844262>trying to sell land to Russianot in any way factual. You are either lying or ignorant. Which is it? U-1 deal gave a russian company a stake in a Canadian mining Co. that mines uranium in the US. Nobody sold or was gonna sell land to Russia. wtf.Meawhile, while you were sucking newsmax cock:https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/oct/06/trump-logging-forestsand this: https://www.outsideonline.com/outdoor-adventure/environment/trump-approves-ambler-road-project-alaska/
>>2844246Some people don't deserve to be taken care of.Like the elderly or veterans (suckers and losers).
>>2844267The thing about not caring for the poor retards is that it makes them poorer, more retarded, a bigger nuisance, and a greater blight on society, but it doesn’t actually kill them for like 50-60 years. So unless you’re actually going to go around and sterilize/euthanize them, take care of them. Same with the criminally insane, sure, it’s not profitable to keep them housed and medicated and off the streets, but it has cost this country a thousand times more than we have saved to not house and medicate and restrain such people.
>>2844261Remind me which side just murdered someone Oh rightIt was your side How many murders has it been again? There was that church, then Charlie, then that other tranny shooter, and the ICE ambusher, who else? There has surely been another one since its been a couple days NOW TELL ME YOUR OPINION ABOUT KILLING PEOPLE AGAIN
>>2844211I'm sure Mesa Verde is closed because it's an actual national park. Have you checked if Chaco Canyon is closed? It's the far far better of the two and will probably still have some stoned Indian dude willing to give you tours.
>>2844297I read accounts (on Reddit, the national park reddit has a big thread with closure updates) that it was closed. didn't check myself though, would been a long detour down a shit road.bisti badlands was cool though
>>2844299Well that sucks. I saw it coming I went to sand dunes in Colorado on the 30th of September and that was my last park of the year. I don't want to give away all my honey holes but there are some really nice national forests around Los Alamos. And some slightly shittier ones near Taos.
>>2844308Do something about the fucking texans and californians if you give a shit
>>2844308Also yeah don't drive to Chaco if you don't know it is open. You might legit get carjacked.
>>2844309Imagine being this analy devastated about tourists enjoying tourist destinations.
>>2844311Don't make me quote DFW again
>>2844244So much fun you took time to come here and bitch. Sad.
>>2844246>>2844260>>2844265>>2844267>>2844294
>>2844294>>2844323Sorry anon. Didn’t mean to include you in this.
>>2844246>Unless they are committing identity fraudNo one tell him
>>2844328Once you understand the way the Democrats get paid both ways by getting these modern slaves revocable papers you will suddenly understand why the literal slaver mafia types are willing to revoluionize trannies.
>>2844235Lmao you've never paid attention. They all have the giant snow gates. Just because it's up at 3 am most days doesn't mean they can't close the park.Do you really think everyone even the nps is lying? Some parks are following the orders given to them by the president who they work for, others aren't. But they literally all have gates they can close.
