For several nights last month, a group of thugs with black hooded sweat shirts pulled tight over their heads, including at least one in "angry" clown makeup, terrorized visitors to Pierce County's Fort Steilacoom Park, police say.
The group cried "woo, woo, Juggalo" as they assaulted park visitors with a machete and fists. They stole cellphones, cash and wallets and even threatened to cut their victims' heads off, according to court documents.
Prosecutors say the suspects claim to be "Juggalos," a subculture that has developed among the fan base of the rap/metal group Insane Clown Posse.

I never was before, but yeah....I'm with ya on that!

White face paint makes an excellent target at night.
Better not sing the score from Pagliacci around either the park visitors or THIS guy.
"According to a statement on the Web site whatisajuggalo.com, the subculture preaches racial tolerance and belief in a religion."
Oh yeah, just what I'd expect from a bunch of clowns called juggalos. I wonder just what type of "a religion" these clowns profess a belief in.
Dem utes out there need to get a life, and maybe a real job too!
For several nights? Real good police work.
Guttu said the park, which closes at 9 p.m., had become a popular hangout for Juggalos to drink and smoke marijuana. He advises park visitors to visit the park only when it is open.
I'd advise Lt. Guttu to clean up the damn park. I'd advise visitors to exercise their right to carry concealed weapons.
These are all the idiots who are into Insane Clown Posse. Just when you thought gangsta rap was about as far as the envelope could be pushed, you get these dolts pretending to be homosidal clowns. And there fan base, obviously, ain't too sharp either.
You missed John Wayne Gacy.
Just viseted (very, very briefly) whatisajuggalo.com website, below is the very first thing I encountered:
"Notice: We are aware of the recent incident infolving a so called "Juggalo" and a Gay Bar in the news recently. The producers of WhatIsAJuggalo.com want to state that we never condone this person's actions and views. To us, he represents everything a Juggalo is not. I'm sure if he actually did listen to the message in the music, instead of just painting his face and posting Juggalo sh!t on his myspace, this would be a different situation. You can't be a bigot like this and be a Juggalo as well.
If someone goes out and kills someone because of our music, they were going to do it...anyways..."
-Violent J"
For an outfit whose symbol is a clown carrying a machete or hachet they sound like such a peaceful, unassuming bunch. I especially like the moniker "Violent J".
What the Hell is going on up there?!!?
Catch 'em, fix 'em, fry 'em...
How dare these juggalos call what they have music!Its all crap just like they are and they all should be put in concentration camps!
I'm just a juggalo and everywhere I go
People know the part I'm playing
Hand over all your bread or I'll decapitate your head
Yep, every night you see the part I'm playing
Just a juggalo with face as white as snow
Dressed in black when I go preying
I carry my machete to shred tourists to spaghetti
Yep, every night you see the part I'm playing
I'm just a juggalo

I assume none of the victims were armed. That's unfortunate. I suspect it would have ended attacks like this.
Shoot clown ..... repeatedly.
Shoot, shovel, shut-up.
