The Colorado Legal Eagles would like to remind the USFS that "this land is my land", not yours. National Forests are public lands, and the USFS are agents of the federal government charged with upholding the U.S. Constitution and protecting civil rights. Yet year after year, these federal agents conspire to deprive campers at the Rainbow Gathering of their Constitutional rights under color of law. The USFS is a rogue agency and out of control. These vicious attacks on the rights of all citizens must stop.

CHILDREN, DOGS AND CAMPERS ATTACKED ON EVE OF DAY OF PRAYER
USFS attempts to incite another riot

Bridger-Teton National Forest, Wyo (July 10, 2008) – Federal Law Enforcement Officers ("LEOs") of the United States Forest Service (USFS) committed multiple acts of violence against campers, their children and their dogs at the Annual Rainbow Gathering being held in the woods near Big Sandy, which unofficially ends today. The gatherers' entire purpose in assembling is to silently pray for world peace on the Fourth of July. The harassment included multiple tasering incidents, writing hundreds of tickets, searching many gatherer's vehicles, kicking sunbathers awake to search them for guns and poking into people's tents. The harassment culminated in an attack of 50-60 rounds of pepper ball bullets being shot both indiscriminately and specifically at campers in the Gathering's Kiddie Village (KV), a camp where children play gently and joyfully all day. This incident took place at dinner time while campers were praying before their meal.

The Rainbow Family of Living Light is a loose network of individuals who gather every year in the national forest to pray for peace, commune with nature, and visit with friends. Every year, the U.S. Forest Service (USFS) increases its attempts to disrupt and cause violence at the Rainbow Family's peaceful gatherings. This year's Gathering was no exception.
