[false] Burning Man organizer plans 30 days of 'anarchy' next to Bundy ranch

[green73]

An organizer for the annual Burning Man festival in Nevada has decided to take the party to Cliven Bundy’s ranch for a 30-day, rules-free “Bundyfest.”

Liberal activist Sean Shealy said the festival will be held across the road from Mr. Bundy’s ranch in Bunkerville for 30 days beginning Sept. 5 and will feature more than 250 bands, Raw Story first reported.

The event appears to blatantly mock the defiant rancher, who has engaged in a long-term battle with the Bureau of Land Management over unpaid federal grazing fees.

“For years, we paid permitting fees to hold Burning Man on the beautiful Playa in Northern Nevada,” reads the Bundyfest Facebook page. “But now, Cliven Bundy has shown us a NEW WAY! ABSOLUTE FREEDOM! Bundy has declared the entire area surrounding Bundy Ranch as a TOTALLY RULES-FREE ZONE! ANYTHING GOES! WOO-HOO!!!”

The page also proudly states that Bundyfest is a “gay friendly atmosphere” that permits “full nudity.”

Looks like the media failed to fact check on this one.

Am I the only one who wants to go to both events? (Or all three actually - Bundy's party, Burning Man and the post Burning Man Bundy party)

That will be an interesting "decompression" as they like to call it.

So, a sycophant of the state wants to make an example of Bundy to not go against the will of God, Government? hmmmm. Can never support.

Burning Man may pay fees, but it traditionally was an anarchist communal centered event with little to no law enforcement presence. However these days I have heard there are quite a few undercover officers at burning man looking to bust people for drugs.

There are hundreds of festivals around the country that are smaller scale, more music oriented versions of burning man. What the organizers of THESE events have found is that it is far superior to hold them on PRIVATE land as opposed to public land because on private land law enforcement generally cannot just come in without the owner's permission. They have also found there are a lot less hoops to jump through.

You just want to show off why they call you "Two-Gun CaseyJones."

AS long as it's not on his private property, I don't see how the Bundy's can complain about this. It would be hilarious to me though to see a bunch of BLM agents point some guns at these guys over turtles. Maybe then, they will recognize the seriousness of all this.

It's a sad day when hippies snark on behalf of the Establishment.

I'd be down with that.

Sure you may be trying to feed people but you get guns stuck in your face; but we are partying our ass off and demand we be left alone because we paid our "fee's" so fuck you hamburger man

They've always been useful idiots.

I didn't realize that opposition to civil disobedience was a cause to rally around within anarchy...

It's a sad day when liberal statists claim to understand the definition of anarchy.

No they understand it perfectly. Anarchy is the tool of socialists used to usher in more statism.

I want a "give the land back to Mexico and the natives" fest. I wonder how many Bundy supporters would show up to that one.

The mask slips... I always thought that "burning man" seemed to symbolize a neo-pagan ritual that was really meant just to further demoralize western civilization... hedonistic anarchy and all that... the fact that these stupid hippies are so hostile towards a conservative that wants to exercise Constitutional freedom really comes as no surprise... still, I somehow doubt that many of these stupid hippies are really going to be able to get very enthusiastic about this deeply cynical event... deep down inside they know how ugly they are actually behaving... no amount of ecstasy is going to cover that up for them... hopefully they start hacking each other's limbs off in some drug fueled frenzy... I think I'm going to go and post a lot of shit-talking on their facebook page now...

That's what I thought as well. I thought Burning Man was about No Boundaries, unless of course you're a classical liberal.

Put those pits the feds dug to good use and pit roast a few head.....
