I don't really know what they accomplished except to further the stereotype of "crunchy hippies" squatting in the woods. Get organized, protest peacefully (not jumping on a car and ending up in the hospital.

Wow this was funny more than anything. People are crazy...get a job and do something worth while in society!

I can understand what they're trying to do, but I agree with surfallday. The sit in should be a last resort. It would be better to get cleaned up and do something about it on a higher level.

Why is it that the younger people all looked pretty clean, but that one older guy was just nasty!? He was spitting while he talked, was dirty and had drool running down his face.

And to the kid who got hurt after jumping on the car...

... well what did you expect? It's a moving vehicle.

Fantastic pod! Good work!

Yea, I agree with you squidteeth, some of those people were pretty nuts.

Check out this pod. http://current.com/items/88793092_going_green_without_spending_green

Though they do not claim to be anarchists, they are essentially living the same way these people were while still being part of society. Constructing their home, getting their food from the local markets' dump, etc. This is more towards the "normal" equivalent of the "Living with Anarchists" pod.

I'd like to see more video if possible. The end of the story, where the eviction happens and they're forced to leave (the most exciting part) is just skimmed over.

I agree with what these people are doing, and I really like the way they are living and the way they're devoting all of this time and effort for a cause they really believe in...

But again, i have to say... That one guy seemed really gross and messed up. He's the type of stereotypical "crusty hippy" that grosses people out and it's really too bad that the pod took much focus on him. The other characters in the story seem much more normal and i'd have liked to hear more from them.

i want to see more video or maybe another installment

this was a really great pod

i would love to not have to pay for food. i live right by a supermarket but i'd be scared of crazy bums.

Whoa, whoa. Those people aren't extreme environmentalists. Those clothes had to have come from a natural source like cotton maybe. Leave the trees alone man. Now Nudists, they are extremely extreme.

Please, I need to see more on this pod! When I first logged onto Current / watch it on T.V, these were the kind of stories I hoped I'd be exposed to . . . well done!

What an interesting story. Imagine meeting those same people if they had taken the "road more traveled" and just spent their time and energy in more traditional roles. They could just as soon be your friends or neighbors and instead they're chaining themselves to trees and attacking cars like animals. I'm not so sure their protest and behavior is that well thought out in the grand scheme of things, but I do somewhat evny the freedom and adventure their lifestyle has (even if it doesn't include regular showers).
