Juggalos Are the Targets of Clownish Discrimination and Police Harassment

Juggalos, the intense Insane Clown Posse fanbase, have long been targeted by police, including in a dubious federal investigation under the legacy of a Red Scare law. The group’s crime, it seems, is its very existence as a visible working-class counterculture.

    Juggalos used to come to independent wrestling shows I frequented in the early 2000s. I’m sure it’s just a bad bunch, but they were assholes.

      It’s like the police. Sure there’s a few solid honest ones, but you know what they’re like in large groups…

      You’re not obliged to like these people but given the facts laid out in the article, the American authorities come out looking more clownish.

      Sorry, I know this will be an unpopular opinion- but I just can’t take them seriously at all. I’m sure they’re nice, but I can’t see them in any other way than cringy clowns.

      Not any different than Rocky Horror Picture show goers or anyother campy sub culture.

    The only way to save the juggalo is with some sort of captive breeding program
