Um, what do furries have to do with Juggalos?

[ironbite]

Nothing.

Ironbite-cept for the fact that both groups hate one another.

[junastarrider]

Ah, I was under the assumption they are both groups everyone loves to hate, along with Twilight, Justin Bieber, and Nickleback fans.

[Art Vandelay]

Why does everyone hate Nickleback so much? Granted, I haven't listened to much of their music but what I have heard sounds very middle-of-the-road. It's definitely bland but certainly not universally rage worthy.

[gyeonghwa]

Was wondering that myself. Granted Nickleback isn't a good band, but it isn't that terrible either.

I dunno :V

[itachirumon]

that's something I've never understood either - I like Nickleback, maybe not all their songs but their hits. Like Photograph, it's a legitimately awesome song.

The FBI has classified fans of the Detroit-based hip-hop band Insane Clown Posse--who call themselves Juggalos and paint their faces like their heroes--as a violent, fast-growing "gang" worth monitoring. News of the bureau's move first came courtesy of Wired reporter Spencer Ackerman.

The Juggalos are highlighted in the bureau's 2011 National Gang Threat Assessment report as a "non-traditional gangs" alongside the traditional ethnic-based Asian, East African and Caribbean gangs; the report classifies Juggalos among "hybrid gangs" such as the Latin Kings.

According to information from the National Gang Intelligence Center cited in the report, the Juggalos "are rapidly expanding into many U.S. communities" and "engage in criminal activity and violence."

Law enforcement officials in at least 21 states "have identified criminal Juggalo sub-sets," according to the NGIC.

Dodero thinks the recent "gang" classification is "ludicrous."

"It's like classifying New York Giants fans as a gang because people have committed crimes while wearing New York Giants hats," Dodero told The Cutline. "This whole gang thing is an allegation Juggalos have been dealing with for years. It's just strange the FBI has decided now to add them to their roster, when Juggalos have actually been getting the best (least outright and spiteful) press in the last 18 months than ever before."

So what do you know, a bunch of clowns monitoring a group of clowns.

I recall when the sheriff of Independence Missouri said he needed lots and lots of money to curb gangs of "Goths" where murdering and robbing and being all criminal like.

Turned out he just made the charges up. But since he was atatcking weirdos, who cares, right?

So while I find ICP stupid, color me unconvinced.
