Oregon Rainbow Family expecting hundreds at Ochoco Forest gathering



Oregon Rainbow Family expecting hundreds at Ochoco Forest gathering


Went to the "scout counsel" at a rest stop next to the interstate (not really Rainbowish I might add) and headed to the site that was "chosen" upon that day.

I was awakened the next morning by a LEO officer telling me I could not park off of the main road because this area of the NF was a sensitive area currently in rehabilitation.

I went to ask this "Rabbit" guy if this site was any good because of what the LEO had stated... only to have this brother bear jump in my face all agro!

He literally was yelling in my face with spit flying saying I didn't know WTF I was talking about even though I was simply asking about what I was just told by LEO.

He went on with some sort of hiholy egotistical speel about how he was the main scout in Oregon and that he was in charge of this show and the past three gatherings in Oregon! (Rainbow has no leaders?) Stated he didn't care about WTF LEO says, or anyone else, and that it doesn't matter if the site was being rehabilitated because he picked and announced it and how now no one could stop "us" from coming and fuck what LEO said and what locals will think. Screaming the whole time!

Welcome the fuck home NOT!

Between this brother bear's agro disrespect towards myself/others and all the homophobic/transphobic hate speech allowed on the Oregon Rainbow Facebook sites that seems to be allowed to happen and continue... I decided this gathering was not one I wanted any part of so I left!

In my opinion... the regional this "Rabbit" guy solely created has been nothing but a shit show from the beginnings. Counsel in a rest stop? Shitty directions given and so much chaos amongst family trying to figure things out. An area of the NF in rehabilitation and only three days of cleanup? A known sexual predator already there! Sooo much negativity online and mass disrespect towards anyone that questions things or asks things! Not to mention... ending the gathering two days before summer solstice? 

Personally... for some reason I thought the Oregon Rainbow Family would have their shit better together and not mainly under the control of a few bad seeds who are totally responsible for what the modern gatherings have been lately and are becoming!

And the end of the Rainbow is truly coming... Definitely not going to be a pot of gold!

I can only hope this year's National in New Hampshire is proper...
