No shit, if Obama was to put as much effort into securing our borders as he is keeping citizens from visiting our National Parks we wouldn't have an immigration problem.
Putting America at Risk: Border Patrol Told to ‘Stand Down’ Amidst Government Shutdown. Obama’s war on the American people has taken an absurd turn as the focus of his anger has been to target veterans and patriotic Americans who simply wish to view national memorials. These are not his private parks; these are not his memorials to close. These memorials are not pawns in a political game but are monuments dedicated to America’s great leaders and pillars of thanks for those who sacrificed so much for this nation.
To desecrate the memories of so many heroes and patriots in a temper tantrum is abhorrent and despicable.
It’s important to remember that these open-air memorials are not closed on weekends and holidays; President Obama has purposefully sent in guards to block off memorials who would not otherwise be there.
As if that isn’t bad enough the Obama Administration is now telling border security to “stand down” during the government shutdown.
Shawn Moran, Vice President of the National Border Patrol Council, recently stated that the border patrol has been ordered to stand down, leaving our borders vulnerable not only to cartel violence, but also to the possibility that terrorists could enter from the southern border.
“It doesn’t matter whether it’s drugs, bodies, or how large the group is, our agents are being ordered to stand down by Border Patrol management,” said Moran. “I have received reports from our agents in every single sector from San Diego to the Rio Grande Valley in Texas that they are receiving these orders.”
