The sacred ground near Shanksville, Pennsylvania where 9/11 Flight 93 crashed twelve years ago after being hijacked by Islamic terrorists has been closed by the National Park Service due to the 'government shutdown.'

Govt shutdown closes Flight 93 National Memorial, would-be visitors turned away.#flight93

The petty and ghoulish Spite House strikes again: Barrycades blocking WWII vets from their memorial, denying death benefits to military families and now this. The Flight 93 National Memorial is an open field for crying out loud. I hope Pennsylvania Governor Tom Corbett plans on working to get the memorial reopened so people can pay their respects.
