I'm on my phone and can't figure out how to share, but it's on the Slab City Info FB page, if someone wants to copy paste the info.
 
Yeah saw reference to this via links from there to a group on facebook, warrents as Matt stated. Didn't see any outcomes to this either.
 
I googled "slab city news" and didn't see anything noteworthy.

Er...it probably was noteworthy to whoever was served though;)
 
That's because people who live in the fringe tend to not follow all the laws, I suppose. Not that everyone isn't a criminal of some sort, really.

I don't know if they don't tend to, but it seems like that would be one of the luxuries of being on the fringes.
 
Warrant check???!!! Ecchhh Disgusting. On so many levels. Those people go out there specifically so they don't have to deal with petty shit.

Doesn't the spirit of the 4th amendment kind of go against a bunch of idiot cops going out to a community of people minding their own business? I guess they have to establish sovereignty somehow. That, sovereignty, is the spirit of the Constitution, not ''freedom''. [Spits]

Suppose a person committed a serious crime and decided to assimilate and conform to community standards and try to avoid answering to their earlier crime(s). Would you want this person in your midst if they did not declare themselves?

Ever hear of this?

What's key is to behave in a community you want to be in. Most communities will ostracize people who make themselves obnoxious. Yeah, I've heard of Pashtunwali.
Dangerous people are a bad deal. No one wants them. But I just feel bad for people who go out far away from the bullshit and then it comes out following them and asserts itself.
 
I had some blm volunteer guy come up on me in a remote campground once and demand ID. Asked him why and he said "do you know what an amber alert is? We need to know who has been here in case there is one". Give me a fucking break.

The Pathan tribes are always engaged in private or public war. Every man is a warrior, a politician and a theologian. Every large house is a real feudal fortress....Every family cultivates its vendetta; every clan, its feud.... Nothing is ever forgotten and very few debts are left unpaid. - Winston Churchill

Wow... Did anyone here every read Huckleberry Finn?

Strikes me how similar the ethics are to the blood feuds between plantation owning families in the south. There was one that Huck Finn got caught up in in that book. Did not end well I believe... been a while since I read it. What an author Mark Twain.

Very interesting and useful link there on the Pashtunwali @7xMichael

Actually it appears there is, Odin. They were raided about this time last year too. That means they've gotten big enough to attract attention in the first place.
For what it's worth, as far as I'm concerned, they've staked a claim to that land. Period end of question.

On topic... wonder if there is an annual pattern to the raid. :p

There is a pattern pretty much throughout the country of law enforcement flushing homeless people from their camps during the spring and just before winter hits.
