@B0hemianLikeY0u It is very strange indeed.

[sLeDnEcK509]

Log it... Pump it... Pave it...

[desertjournalonline]

@sLeDnEcK509 Pave it with hemp fiber and resin, then I'll smoke it too. Peace & Love, Wild Bill

[LoveInfiniteMother]

i can't swim! i never have, at least..but this looks fun and i wanna do that :)

[protester]

@LoveInfiniteMother Do you need any swimming lessons? I can help people overcome their fear of water. Peace & Love,

Wild Bill

[LoveInfiniteMother]

@protester Yes I do, how would you do that?

[desertjournalonline]

@LoveInfiniteMother Very good question. I suppose living in the same town wouild help. But truly, I'm the nowhere man and If I just happen to be in your neck of the woods that would be a good time to start the swimming lessons.

[jpcomputerservices]

I have been told these "Rainbow People" don't shower and leave a a terrible smell behind them. Someone should throw that woman and the children a bar of soap while they are still in the water.

[TheFloydsta]

[fireoncrack]

@guzspud1 Hey retard, if you knew anything about what Rainbow gatherings are about you wouldnt have said what you did. You tell me, that i need a fucken job? I do have a job, i've worked for 6 years, considering im only 23, but these events here. Are awesome. I don't condone of any narcotic use or psychadelic expierments. But i do think you should go back to school. A life? I have the life i once dreamed of right now, its so great. Be prepared dude, this world is up for a change.

[dogwartribe]

Still is no excuse,so somone watching this video will go to the Vermont Gathering this Year and Decide to Go For a Float or Swim,Im Just sayin i see it every year and FAMILY trys to stop it, Rainbow Family Takes Water out of the Creek and uses it atleast 100 yards away from the creek/river,and this is the message we need to spread,

Thats The Sanitary Safe Way,

That waters already polluted enough from man

Get Out.

ITS CALLED THE RAINBOW WAY OF LIVING

[dogwartribe]

Rainbow Family is Amazing,but that lady shouldnt be in the water like that,thats grose becuase thats OUR DRINKING WATER!! thats Wrong

[protester]

No one drinks from that creek because it contains radioactive fallout from Los Alamos!

[oldmoonshiner]

as you can see "trabi1991" needs all the help they can get. the poor dumb ass.

[WILDKILLBILLY]

tym4smoke have no time for school?

[tym4smoke]

u poeople need to open your minds and quit being so dam ignorant the raimbow family is the best that happens to national forests

[Trabi1991]

yea!! waste of time!

YOU´RE KIDS ARE TO FAT !! AND YOU´R WIFE´S TOO!!!

[protester]

SOOOOooooo WHAT?

[xgi36]

What a waste of time!

[crazysharkboy]

Watch out for those rainbows... I hear they treat each other with love and respect! Can you believe that!!! Before you know it, they'll start getting the rest of the world to be just like them... The ABSURDITY!!!

[adoginfog]

WHo is this scum infected MrWeasil? A weasel indeed!

[MrWeasil]

let me explain a little bit about my self to you, I for one understand all your protest bullshit the lets take down the system crap, lets all huddle together in hoards and make a difference, iget all that but what i dont get is how you mudballs can go so long without bathing?? your foul smell and unwillingness to groom yourselves just shows the world that you really dont care,clean yourselves up a little bit, grab a shave,use some soap,try some shampoo it works, then you might make a difference

[protester]

I bet you have obsessive compulsive disorder and wash your hands and dick a thousand times per day, trying to prevent the sky from falling.

[protester]

Now that's funny! HAHAHAHAHA!

[Trabi1991]

what the shit....

[killthetorment]

what ??? LOL!

[Wagerfilm]

lovely

[bozzle18]

i went. Camp Whoop Whoop!

[flyingcricket1001]

We aint all hippies though you sure do live like one for a solid week. It's one big family of outcasts, dogooders, tree hugging mystics, nudist hippies, train-hopping wanderers and every other sort of person you can imagine. even a republican or two I'll wager. that's what makes us a rainbow :) a social/spiritual/economic variety pack coming together in a melting pot of a nation

[protester]

I used to be all those things and more. Can't say I was ever a registered Republican but I have been known to vote for one or two here and there. I noticed the diversity at the gathering - all colors, creeds and mental mindsets (i.e., exhibitionists versus closet Rainbows who hate cameras).

[bozzle18]

my buddy is a stone cold republican and hes been going for years now

[itwaschris]

Think for yourself!

Don't listen to this bourgeois propaganda!

google

Rainbow Family a Public Nuisance

Write you elected officials in New Mexico. Write Obama and force this environmentally IRRESPONSIBLE family to TAKE RESPONSIBILITY for the damage that A-CAMP doesto OUR NATIONAL FORESTS!

[protester]

It seems the public nuisance in many cases is false authority. There are already tales of DWI, but the wicked must be sorted out. I'm sure these events provide their own internal security or else they most likely would not exist or be permitted to exist.

[protester]

And I'd like to add that real homeland security rests with the people, not with the false authorities who have safety products to sell, blah, blah, blah!

[ImRoadRage]

You ever think the Rainbow Family might qualify as "the public" themselves??? Or is that label restricted to self-righteous assholes who poossess an inflated opinion of their own self-worth? America - the land of the Free . . . doesn't mean free to impose on others.

[protester]

I agree. False Authority is always self-imposing. If public safety were truly an issue at Gatherings, then why are the police inside the circle where it's relatively safe and free of danger when they could instead be patrolling the highways and streets where the danger lurks? This presence of LEOs obviously is an affront to our right to assemble peaceably.

[creten69]

i saw her rainbow

[CiweedGreeneBean]

we love you....

phamily love sisters and brothers

[protester]

Thanks, I enjoyed your hiking video outside Flagstaff. I love the outdoor cathedral and just maybe we'll see you soon roaming the SW wonderland!

Wild Bill

[tehpevis]

estimated 75,000?

Probably 15,000 at the most.

[protester]

I agree. I'm sure TV news was blowing up the numbers to cause alarm. I was thinking 7,500 at the most but how would I know?

[tehpevis]

yeh, I... think it was about that at Arkansas a couple years back. First one I went to; kinda left a bad impression from all the mud. I'm looking forward to this one, though.

[bigsammieking]

When your driveing down the road and you see a police cruiser sitting by the road does it make you feel safe? I asked this once and this cheeseball said "Thats just becuae you had a bad experience with the cops" ANYONE REALLY EVER HAD A GOOD ONE !!?? I have gotten mauled by people, my stuff stolen wheres the cops? Never there when you need them. Strike up a little herb 3 miles deep in the woods and there they are. Maybe we need to convert them. LOL

[gibiskinder]

You don't understand anything !

[protester]

Then bring us to light please! We are students and don't blink at the possibility that perhaps we need some instruction to understand all.

[sistermoonshine13]

Bill what is this all about? What gathering?

[protester]

The Rainbows, bearers of light, of which Kybboa apparently is a member tribe. I think some Utubians might attend. I might go for a day. Bunch of people gather in the woods, plant trees, bring healers, their wares and trade, etc. I've never been to one but I've known many who have.

[jarisdreaming]

missed two since '91. make a point of being there, spiritual hajj to da mainland, rainbow trail all summer into the fall.

[1000You2b0001]

That was a fun video! Hello kids!

[protester]

Howdy, 10.1 million utoobies, it was indeed! It was even better last Friday when the kids got bigger floaties and went over the log dams. The Jemez has got to be my favorite place in the world. And tons of rocks for visitors to climb! I'll just remain the swimmer I am, being a permanent pardner with Vertigo and all. Seems to go against my personal stellar alignment, Virgo, the balance act and all.

[batchainpullr]

I wonder if they already have the OP-ED drawn-up in case things get ugly there.

I can see it now: " Rainbow Cultists attack Forest Rangers - Rangers forced to kill all "

[batchainpullr]

Or is it just another drain on Government dollars, with the targeted group being less likely to show resistance - and thus an easy way to generate revenue - as long as there are enough tickets written to pay, I mean justify being there.

So far it`s been enough to justify a return vacation each year for the Incident Management Team that YOU helped create to deal with these trouble makers who camp in the woods and then clean up after themselves - how DARE THEY !

[protester]

Really, who are they to be good stewards of the land, I just wonder? I keep hearing from the right that FDR was the worst president ever, yet it seems that it was his administration that reforested many lands, and to the benefit of America I might add. Maybe FDR was a hippie.

[batchainpullr]

Last year they opened fire in Kid Village - were those actions what you would want from someone who is there representing "YOUR RIGHTS" in regards to that Forest Land ?

Is that what you want to pay them to go and do again this year, in OUR name ?

Isn`t this land for everybody ?

Is there a need to follow this group into the wilderness to protect them from themselves so they don`t get hurt while praying for peace?

[protester]

If I'm not there in the physical realm, I will certainly be there in spirit. For I protest war, violence, ignorance; and I embrace love, peace, truth and justice.

[batchainpullr]

So here is the question:

Do YOU want YOUR law Enforcement Officers following all these people way out into the middle of nowhere (where they go so they won`t bother anybody), just to enforce regulations on them - with YOU picking up the tab ?

[protester]

There a lot to be said for self-empowerment. We provide for our own security - we weed out the bad ones and send them down the road! But if the police want to join as guests, I have no personal bias, perhaps they may learn a decent thing or two about the culture they've been taught to abhor and haunt.

[batchainpullr]

learn maybe, but will they act on this realization if all their piers are there watching?

And while we`re at it, what`s with bringing all the guns to an Event centered around Peace ?

I went for years to Rainbows when there was a great relationship with the Forest Service(I have a freind from High School who became a ranger BTW), we all used to work together and even plant trees together.

There was only peace

Now there is violence

and Guns

[batchainpullr]

gee, I wonder what`ll happen next !

[batchainpullr]

The Forest Service Law Enforcement Officials are going to be there on OUR State Forest Land - according to them on OUR behalf - to "Protect" the people attending there.

(From???)

[protester]

Let me guess: the gestapo?

FREEDOM FREEDOM FREEDOM!!!

[AlabamaRiverMan]

We are coming all the way from Alabama to the gathering. Can't wait! Your community will be over run with Rainbows but it's not as bad as you may think. The gas stations will probably sell out of gas, food and ice though!

My family and I have been going to gatherings since 1993 and we always have a wonderful time! It's not a drug fest, or a drunk fest... it's all about peace and love and healing. We were there in 1995 near Toas for the last national in NM and it was breathtaking. Love your state

[protester]

I am getting over conventional treatment for Hep C and I definitely could use a little bit of soul healing. Maybe a day's trip would be well worth the effort. And perhaps I'll run across an old friend or two.

[AlabamaRiverMan]

Awesome... hope you are feeling better. If you do make it please try to swing by the Sweet Om Alabama kitchen and say hi!

[protester]

Thanks!

[audiomaniacle]

the townies should get outta the river, you know what fish do in there

[bigsammieking]

love to come but don't vwant to be hastled by the LEO's. At gatherings you give up your rights it seems. Another blitzcreig on kid village? brave warriors that they are

I choose to hide my rainbow roots, not a safe place for families in my opinion

[protester]

Since I'm a journalist, I could bring my video camera and watch the pigs and show their pigly conduct to the world. Actually, having been a longtime crime beat reporter I know both worlds quite well - I guess that does give me some balance and fairness.

[kavajim95687]

Best non-commercial EVER!!!

[protester]

Thanks, but don't be encouraged by a little of the town folks' noise. They may bark but they'll probably make more money in a day than they have all year long.

[protester]

Corr: I meant discouraged.

[losthills]

Hey Bill, are you gonna attend the event and film it for us?

[protester]

If I do it would have to be a day trip because I'm strapped to helping raise the three grandkids in video and helping my wife with the daily newspaper routes. I've never been to one but was always curious. I've planted trees in the forests with some people who have attended the event.

[protester]

It looks like Thursday or Friday, tentatively anyway. Gotta go to Elephant Butte Lake for the Fourth (another video spectacular, I hope).

[kimlea69]

hey man i'm in clovis ant been to the river in a long time thx .....kim

[protester]

Glad I could bring the river to you.

[zigzawa]

My hubby Wild Bill is a wishful thinker.
