CLARK — The Rainbow Family peace gathering turned hostile Tuesday when a group of attendees began hurling rocks and sticks at law enforcement officers, U.S. Forest Service officials said.
The incident happened at about 11 a.m. and involved Forest Service officers who were manning the checkpoint set up to issue citations to anyone attempting to enter the gathering. Citations were being issued because Rainbow Family members had not signed a free Forest Service special-use permit, which is required for gatherings of 75 or more people.
No arrests were made, and the officers left the scene because they did not want to escalate the situation, Ritschard said. No officers were injured.
"The Forest Service is very serious about the safety of our officers and cooperators," Ritschard said. (Might I suggest a fire hose?)
Also Tuesday, an incomplete special-use permit application was submitted to the Forest Service, Ritschard said. She said the application contained profanity where the applicant was supposed to write the location of the gathering. The application can't be accepted as submitted, Ritschard said.

Hope they get off their pansy @$$3$ and throw the insurgents and trespassers out.
You'd have to do an environmental report first
