The Forest Service insisted that a group-use permit be signed.The Rainbow family gatherings contend that the United States Constitution and Bill of Rights give them the right to peaceably assemble on public land and that requiring a permit would violate that basic right by turning it into a privilege to be regulated.
Rainbow Gatherings are freeform gatherings of individuals who come together on public lands with an expressed desire to espouse the ideas of peace, love, harmony, freedom and community while trying to live free from ideals of mainstream popular culture, capitalism and mass media.

Ruthmeanie....Why dont you read the question again and tell me if you hint any bias one way or the other. Are you already focusing on a made up political ideology when I simply ask an unbiased question?
Many Americans and I disagree on the way our political process is being run these days...that is expected.
But one thing I bet we do agree on is that unless PEOPLE LIKE YOU wise up we will be in a hell of a lot of trouble than we are now. Wise up....think for yourself and not from some seed someone has planted in your head. (if you are 10 years old, I appologize)

I finally get why there is no possible true dialogue between liberals and conservatives...
You really cannot see how this treatment of law enforcement is contributing to the violent tendencies of our youth?
My stomach is roiling. You think this is "good" for our country? You think this is why our Patriots shed their blood for "free speech?"

the Rainbow Family was lucky that no trigger happy law enforcement officer was there,, the fact that not a shot was fired is amazing,, but they proved their point,, their choice of language could have been more civil,,

If it was as bad as the "hippies" thought it was(Nazism) those would have been troupes with real "Machine Guns" not police.
