Wait, the park ranger ticketed the host, apologized. and then told her to fight it in court? What an idiot. If the ranger really felt bad, he would have just given them a warning to leave the area immediatly, no need to issue the citatiion.

Like most leftist ideas, closing a national park for any reason beyond an immediate danger, runs contrary to the ideas of the people who founded them.
