    I am what you call a Happy person when I overindulge in any mind altering drug,it's when I have to be around Unhappy people,that's when I have a problem. This is when I move on down the road,if I feel I can't bring a happy solution to the problem.
    It's just like when I'm watching some show that doesn't make sense to me and that's not just at A camp, I have trouble at times with the High Holies.
    I rather be in Heaven then Hell,so that's what I search for.

    shithead, i hope i can answer your question constructively
    1st off i really love ya all and respect the work ya do
    and have no hate for anyone
    but some things i've witnessed has saddened me..and i cant say its 1 person or another from a camp, or just drunk local troublemakers, but when i come into a gathering (like wv) and at front gate is 10 kids all with black eyes...then further down the trail run into a drunk kid whos on a mission to get someone to hit him...and further down the trail run into another drunk kid beligerently tryinmg to get some poor suster to let him watch her take a piss...
    its stuff like this that makes ppl not like alcahol being there..also when u go back to your vehicle to find the window smashed..or hear stories of a campers forcibly yanking ppl out of theyre cars for not givin up spange..
    its not any people..just certain stories of rather uncool behaviors that affect ppl's attitudes
    and like someone else said..i live in a drug and alcahol destroyed neighbourhood..when i goto rainbow i go to get away from all that and restore my sence of peace and sanity
    and the last thing i wanna see is some drunk 16 yr old pushin ppl around tryin to make em hit him....and when i arrive i'm looking forward to hugs and smiles..not bloody beatten up black eyed kids welcoming me with a scowl..
    i guess what ppl hate about a camp is that we need an a camp in the 1syt place.. we hate that inviting the world..also invites the worlds problems...

    but i've never been 1 to ever have any probs with anyone at a-camp
    but..i dont spend time there ..i dont hang at jesus camp if i dont wanna be preached at..and dont hang at a camp if i dont wanna get stumbled over spit on and have to potentialy deal with a fight startin..nothing personal against anyone in particular ppl just go where the vibe calls em....theres a place for everyone in rainbow wether its peace and qui#et u seek or loud and roudy

    like i dont goto yoga meadow to get all crazy..i wouldnt go to a-camp to just chill and relax (since i dont drink)
    but i will go to front gate on rare occassions to help out if needed

    i do give ya all alotta respect..ya work some long hours and do a great job..but u gottsa also recognize the 1st impression ya give alotta new rainbows..and i've talked to quite a few who never really even made it into the main site cuz they never made it past a camp either cause they were turned away, scared away, or just hung out with ya and missed out on the full rainbow experience (well only heard that twice and both were just day trippers weekend warrior types who could only be there for a day)..
    i guess i wasnt too good at answering the question since i rambled a bit..but i guess the biggest concern is the 1st impression iu giive to new arrivals
    ya really shouldnt feel a bit of hate..only love..but theres definately concern mixed in..but doesnt it take love to be concerned?
    its the same concern we feel when a bro or sis admits to shooting up..theres no less love, just concern for them,
    so yea we love a camp, but i think alotta ppl wish ya wouldnt drink so much..for your own sakes..ya ook much happier without black eyes and all that

    lovin ya brother
    sorry i was just tryin to be honnesst as possible
    and i'm pretty sure i know u dont i?

    To Shithead and other A-campers:
    Many props to all of you A-campers that help make the gathering work, dealing with car chaos, the man, and shuttling people etc. Many of you guys really do bust ass and take care of the shitty jobs like trash that many try to avoid.

    I also wish you would stop hating yourselves by drinking shitloads of alcohol, we need you guys so please don't fuck up your liver! This hits pretty close to home for me becasue alcohol use is responsible for killing both of my uncles.

    We love you guys please take care of yourself!
