The parks and memorials usually stay open regardless of the situation. The God-King has done this on purpose to cause as much pain as he can. He's a sick individual with no regard for anyone but himself.
Not surprised that the lemming StrawAnus has no problem with this. He's the type of scumbag that would keep his boot on the head of a drowning WWII vet. Sick, creepy stalker.
Also, the WWII memorial was almost entirely privately funded. The fact that government thinks it can exert control over it is comical. Again, not surprising of the wannabe-Gestapo that is the current regime, though.
