"Many Rainbow Gathering participants believe they can police themselves and law enforcement personnel are not needed within the Gathering. However, the statistics gathered during the event proved otherwise; as of July 9, there were 26 arrests and 264 written violation notices issued by Forest Service law enforcement officers to gathering participants."
264 tickets, a bunch of them for dogs off leashes, nudity, and other petty crap. I don't think using Federal LEOs as animal control officers and tittie police proves that the Village can't police itself.
