These days it is a rare person that will stand up to the system as fear factors are in play to keep people complacent and under control. The Garden of Eden had eight adults on the property at the time of the raid. Instead of terrorizing helpless "hippies" (as they called us), they attempted to intimidate and terrorize intelligent empowered people who were in the know of what is really going on in the system--people who stood together and rallied world-wide support--people who stood up and continue to stand up for truth and don't back down. As a greater community we can share these stories and spread the word of the change that is possible. I am grateful the Garden of Eden exists and that there are others joining in on the stand for change. I believe Steemit will further the ability to reach others about these important matters.
