I've never heard of rainbow people until now. But now I wish I had never heard of them, and their un-american lawlessness.

It's the 4th of July and I love the Man. The Man formed the constitution, preserved our liberty and tries to prevent chaos. Try being the Rainbow in China, Cuba or Russia. You'll soon love the Man.

Get a job hippie!
What's that smell? | 11:07 p.m. July 4, 2008
Something stinks! It smells like a dirty, stinking, psuedo hippie. The only thing worse than a hippie is a hippie-wanta-be. Go back to the '60's you smelly freaks!
I'd rather see livestock | 11:14 p.m. July 4, 2008
Frankly, I'd rather see livestock grazing the mountains than having my tax dollars going to provide a party venue for a group of drug users.
It would be of more use to society.

Bummer Duuude. Feds at the Rainbow Gathering. Feds in uniform! Armed Feds tromping around in all the peacefulness and grooviness. Buhhhmmmmer!

Hellllo! Pelting the Feds with sticks and stones is lousy nonviolent discipline too. Buhhhmmmmmer!

Wyoming shows its welcoming values once again, very uptight. Relax, three troublemakers among 7000 people is not extreme.

I am from WY and right now my bro is a sheriff deputy having to deal with these morons. He is working 12+ hour days nearly seven days a week because of these idiots who cannot drag themselves out of the 60s. It might be nice and well if it weren't for the fact that the "candy" they are passing out didn't contain meth... Besides, WY is very welcoming--as long as you aren't S-T-U-P-I-D, then we tend to get a little testy, maybe it's because we enjoy our wide open spaces and prefer to breathe our air rather than chew and swallow it..
