FBI classifies Juggalos (ICP fans) as a gang

#25
Sad thing is that this kind of publicity will do nothing but bring more idiots out of the woodwork. There's alot of kids out there looking for a way to rebel. All they need is a direction. Here it is kids, paint your face, act like a moron. You're an outlaw!

Probably the best publicity ICP could've asked for.

I mean don't you have to be some sort of dangerous deviant to like ICP anyway?

I dunno. I was experimentally listening to some of their stuff and though the content is certainly brainless, it's slick product with a bit more sophisticated production than the typical "Urban" stuff. Taken out of its wigger-Kultur context it was professional effort.

[We've reached the sociology-to-music tip point that means this prolly needs to be moved to Miscellaneous...:hmm:]

Look what you're missing out on.

Are Juggalos the offspring of carnies or the results of prison conjugal visits?

This is a fascinating video. The scene is just about what I expected from the folks I've met who are into ICP in some form or another. Around here it's 'kids' in the rural small town that at one time would have been metalheads, now bastardized into a pseudo hip-hop/metal thang. In many ways it's a scene that you'll get at almost any phish/dead/jam-festival type setting, but maybe with less decorum (yes, that's a loaded statement). I find it interesting that more than a couple believe that they're quite together, while discussing how utterly messed up they are.

Exactly, that's what's so perplexing about it. They gloat over their aberration as if it's an accepted norm and not a cause of physical or psychological concern. Also, it's not a loaded statement if it's true.

"its about true ****** true... true ******* ninjahood."


I think the good `ol USAF should accidently drop some daisy cutters.

If the land mines accidently placed by the army dont work.

I was taken to a party once... I wasnt driving. We ended up at a juggalo party. Really wasnt to bad, other than the ridiculous juggalo whoop whoops it was alright. Couple kegs, cute girls making bad decisions, decent conversations about cars...

Then I put my foot up on the bumper of the homeowners jeep to tie my shoe... "Hey homie, you know who's ride you be leanin' on, mother&&&&&&&&&?"

Apparently I was about to get jumped, but my friend who knew a few people their stopped it. Then we left.

Juggalos are lame. Only thing worse is a bro juggalo hybrid.... the juggabro.

Here is my take on this. Not every person that listens too or likes ICP is a gang member but many if not most are. I work in as a Corrections Officer in my State and have seen specific gang activity from ICP people. I can't go into specifics of what I have seen because all of the stuff I find gets turned over to our department that handles all of that stuff but I have seen some very concrete evidence of their activities to label them as a STG.

I despise the "music" of ICP.. Ugh.. but anyway, I have seen a lot of "Juggalos" as they seem to be everywhere these days, and I've seen a lot of talk but no actual fighting. The worst they do is act like idiots and spray people with pop. That's not to say that they don't act like a gang however, and I feel that they have the mentality of one.
