Default Military style police checkpoints going into Horning's Hideout

This is absolutely terrifying.

Beaverton Police are profiling all vehicles going into Horning's Hideout as a threat to society and public safety. Everyone is guilty before proven innocent and subject to K9 searches.

What's really funny is that the writer of the column (link above) needs to take some grammar classes or at least learn how to use spell check lol...

All around it's not a very classy article.

Horing's Hideout is a wonderful compliment to our other Oregon courses and although this article doesn't target disc golfers in particular, it is clear that this destination has been targeted as attracting problem people.

The accident described in the video is unfortunate but to label everyone who goes there as a threat to society is a little extreme.

There is clearly a war being waged against people who don't behave like corporations and government would like people to behave. Corporations and government want people divided, isolated and spiraling into debt. They just can't stand people gathering together to enjoy music. One would think that after Enron and Bernie Madoff there would be more controls set up to prevent corporate corruption but criminal organizations like Goldman Sachs are having a free for all and do whatever they want.

Where are the military K9 checkpoints for corporate criminals?

What I gathered from what I read was they were targetting a specific concert and not so much the venue.

this unfortunately is not uncommon for hippie jam band festivals nationwide.
