Our ancestors owned slaves.
So did African, Chinese, and Egyptian ancestors among many others. Oh and your precious Indians made slaves of other Indians and whites. They also made torture an art form making the Inquisition look like a daycare center.. Lastly this is 2025 not the 1950's when DEMOCRATS (who formed the KKK) and were the DEMOCRAT governors of all the Dixie states who were racist. Get your history straight and for God sakes get a calendar in your house.

Africans and arabs used to invade Europe and take slaves. No one is innocent. Feel better now?

Yep, the Park Rangers Boss didn't want shitty gay flags displayed so they pushed back and won by firing the bitch.
People need to start using common sense at the workplace.

Hey guess what f@g... I don't give a frick about "your" identity and your BS gay movement... and when I go to Yosemite to see absolutely beautiful nature, I--like most people--don't want to see your stupid flag celebrating your mental illness mucking that all up. There are plenty of other venues for you to do that bullshite. It has no place in Yosemite Park. You fricking freak.
Kick rocks.
Kick rocks.

You can’t be non binary and a biologist at the same time.

(1) And yet, we are supposed to blindly believe that these dysfunctional demons aren't trying to program, manipulate, and outright brainwash America's children. They have infiltrated our schools, they are welcome in libraries, etc. And when I say "they," I'm not just talking about transsexuals. I'm also including the much larger population of woke-joke idiots (mostly women) who are only too willing to virtue-signal their stupid asses off in favor of this insanity.
2) Regarding the word I quoted, I only wish that the letters "i" and "r" had switched places.

Glad this employee got canned.
I was always under the impression that the vast majority of federally owned western lands were lands that homesteaders never claimed bc they were poor agricultural land and you’d need a lot more than 160 acres to ranch it.
I know some have been “bought” back especially the national grasslands land that came back under fed control following the dust bowl.
Some national parks like Grand Teton, Great Smokies, and Acadia for example were privately purchased lands that were donated back to the Feds as a gift.

The land in western U.S. was originally federal land, either bought from France in the Louisiana purchase or won/bought from Mexico in the aftermath of the Mexican war
Who exactly "paid" and fought for the land?Where did the money come from and who paid it off?
Using you logic,ALL of the original 13 colonies should be property of the federal govt since we fought for it and obviously claimed from the British.

Imagine the impact if one or more of those knuckleheads had been injured or died performing this nonsense with an off duty parks dept. employee?

The original lands in the eastern U.S. were never ‘owned’ by the federal government since there was no federal government until after the revolution. The lands were already claimed by settlers by the time of the revolution. The western lands were obtained after the U.S. became a nation and were mostly bought from foreign countries using federal dollars. Thus, the lands are owned by all the people through the federal government. Those lands belong to the public as a whole and should not be sold or given to a select few. The homesteaders were given land by the federal government to settle some of those lands but the remaining lands have remained in the public domain as they should. Poll after poll has shown overwhelming support from American citizens to keep ‘their’ lands in the public domain and not give or sell them to private entities.

The US government owns most of the Western US, they could sell some to pay the National Debt, the Communists have run up over the past 4 years.

Do what? According to you those lands fought for and
won POST REVOLUTION should be controlled and owned by the Feds regardless of "settlers" There were plenty of "settlers" in both the French and Mexican territories post the purchases and wars.
Regardless,those lands were paid for with the bloodshed and dollars of the American citizens and the land belongs to them.NOT the Feds.

How stupid is this comment?
At one time the US govt supposedly "owned" the Oklahoma territory, which had been assigned to the Creek and Seminole native peoples in the 1830s. Yet it was opened in 1889 for "Americans" to grab as homesteads. Suddenly not public lands anymore
And there was also plenty of documentation of ownership of lands seized or bought by the US govt. They were called land grants from the time of the Spanish, Mexican, or French governing bodies. Just because the land was purchased didnt mean the US govt threw ALL of them off their land and claimed public ownership
