'GO **** YOURSELVES': Leaked national park comments slam Washington [View all]

The United States Department of the Interior's efforts to revise unfavorable stories about American history at National Park Service sites appears to be backfiring — instead of reporting incidents of "negative" history as directed by new signs, visitors have used the signs' QR codes to submit hundreds of comments in support of the park service.

In a 65-page leaked document provided to SFGATE by the National Parks Conservation Association, the hundreds of comments that have poured in through June 16 show overwhelming support for better funding for national parks and increased protection of public lands.

"This felonious Administration is the very definition of un-American. The parks belong to us, the people. ... Respectfully, GO ---- YOURSELVES" reads one comment that has been reported through multiple parks and is directed to Interior Secretary Doug Burgum.

"This park is perfect. Please tell Trump to go ---- himself," reads a similar comment posted through Keweenaw National Historical Park in Michigan.
