some local police may be getting recruited to man National Parks to shift Park Rangers?

around in order to line up Rangers and Parks police from the BORDER to be Barr's travelling Nazis??

Just a hunch. Know a local deputy sheriff and his family 'visiting' Utah's Zion Park later this summer.
I can't think of any reason or interest they would suddenly have in going there.
Also it 'slipped' out in a FB post
I don't know for how long it is.

Then in internet searches I see Zion Park has routinely been shifting Rangers to the Southern Border
for several years so those people can go do something else.

In other posts here I have seen references that having Barr's Gestapo go to every urban center would pose personnel problems. Is there any chance they are back-filling with loaners from local departments? Maybe with guys who used to be in military RESERVE UNITS but now employed by a local LEO?

I just think something may be up in this regard. Eyes and ears.

NPS rangers are not LEOs and only they have any training in crowd control and emergency services. Utah is its own thing and maybe the Bundys are getting ready to cause more trouble with their militia buddies. Ammon was sniffing around here a few weeks ago, held a three day event. He's been camping out in Idaho for a while now and there is probably some shitstorm they are planning in the works. Also, park rangers can transfer or go on detail to another facility, happens a lot. I haven't heard any of this but with Utah, you can never be sure, they have their own local cults going on.
