well, here we go again. A regional family has a right to do anything
it wants. anarchy is for everyone. There is no national authority
that has the right to impose on, or land on, or blockade anyone's
council, if they've been uninvited. Some of the more agressive Region
16 attempted to do that two weeks prior
to a Katuah Thanksgiving council I hosted on private land, and I
would not allow it. However, attendance at the council was open,
during the dates of the council. (as long as there was no alchohol!)
It could be that these folks are trying to avoid the landing upon
their decision making process of known consensus blockers, drinkers,
arguers, whatever... drainbows, as it were. They have a right to
choose. And no-one has a right to say anything is or is not rainbow.
It cuts both ways, folks, if we don't want an organization, and we
say that everyone is rainbow, then hey, everyone who so chooses can
have any kind of gathering they want, and call it whatever they want.
Loving ya'll,
and our Freedom, and lack of Authority!
