Slab City has no laws. The people there are quite friendly, and most are artists. It's only if you step out of line that they shoot you, one man said (he may have been joking). Slab City is an abandoned military base.

A few months ago we went to visit the incredible abandoned city called Slab City. It used to be a military base but hundreds of squatters came and made it their home. We went with our friend Justin Escalona and truly had a fascinating experience. We thought the place would be hostile and dangerous when in fact it was inviting and beautiful (in it's own way).
