'Our veterans deserve a clean lawn'

10/10/13

One can only imagine the conditions at Arlington....


Shutdown-busting gardener tells how he was ordered off Lincoln Memorial by 'bully robocops'


  • South Carolinian leapt into action as the federal government's shutdown began, cleaning up trash and tending the grounds on the National Mall
  • A 'bully' Park Police officer made him stop mowing the lawn in front of the Lincoln Memorial on Wednesday, and said he couldn't pick up the trash
  • The officer told him news stories showing the Mall in disrepair would help government employees get back to work with full pay
  • Chris Cox, 45, is calling on Americans to bring rakes and lawn mowers to war memorials and clean up what furloughed government workers won't
