Anarchists Enforcing Order With Violence? That’ll Never Happen!

Gather a few hundred peace activists and anarchists, with thousands more expected, into one space and what do you get? Well, for one attendee, it was a shovel to the head and a punctured lung.

Southern Oregon blogger RoguePundit links to an article by the Klamath Falls Herald and News on the “Rainbow Family Gathering of Living Light” being held in Northern California’s Modoc National Forest. Trouble has already started with one attendee breaking the windshield of a truck and then assaulting the two occupants. He was apparently pissed off because they were driving through the camp at an unsafe speed.

The Forest Service is encountering other problems such as permit conflicts and the logistics of having upwards of 20,000 people live in the same area for a week or more.

Anyone planning to go camping at Modoc during Independence Day weekend should probably avoid it, unless you like pointing and laughing at anarchists. In that case, you may want to practice on ducking your head.
