Unauthorized Viewing of National Monuments

IT WOULD APPEAR THAT THOSE BUREAUCRATS IN THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AND THEIR BOSSES THINK THAT AMERICANS CANNOT VIEW  SUCH NATIONAL TREASURES AS THE WASHINGTON MONUMENT, MOUNT RUSHMORE, OR EVEN OLD FAITHFUL WITHOUT THE ASSISTANCE OF SOME OVER-PAID GOVERNMENT WORKER TO INSTRUCT THEM ON HOW TO SEE.  JUST YESTERDAY, A GROUP OF WWII VETS WERE ALMOST STOPPED FROM VIEWING THE WWII MONUMENT, AN AREA WITH A SIDEWALK GOING THROUGH THE ENTIRE AREA.  MAYBE OUR MONUMENTS DO NEED PROTECTION, BUT NOT FROM THE AVERAGE CITIZEN, BUT FROM THE GANGS THAT RUN RAMPANT IN WASHINGTON CITY, AND I SHOULD ADD FROM THE VERY PEOPLE ASSIGNED TO PROTECT THEM, BECAUSE IN THEIR OVER-PROTECTIVE ZEAL THEY ARE ACTING LIKE THOSE MONUMENTS BELONG TO THEM AND NOT THE PEOPLE.  OR PERHAPS THEY ARE JUST REFLECTING THIS ADMINISTRATIONS BELIEVE THAT THE PEOPLE OF THIS NATION ARE JUST NOT CAPABLE OF DECIDING WHAT'S BEST FOR THEM AND MUST BE LEAD BY AN "ALL KNOWING" BUREAUCRAT EVEN DOWN A SIDEWALK PASSING THROUGH A NATIONAL MONUMENT.  THANKS TO HOPE n CHANGE CARTOONS  FOR THE ABOVE IMAGE.
