For those that are not keeping up with what is going. The Juggalos are fans of the Detroit rap duo Insane Clown Posse.

In fun recently I posted a video from the Insane Clown Posse as a band that Rufus would need while running for president. :mrgreen:

In 2011, the FBI’s National Gang Intelligence Center designated Juggalos, who say they are simply fans of a band, as a “loosely organized hybrid gang,” saying a subset of the group is involved in criminal activity. The agency sent out briefing materials to all law enforcement offices around the country listing Juggalos as a gang alongside Crips, Bloods and MS-13. They pointed out particular signs to look for to see if a person was a Juggalo, like the “hatchet man” symbol of the Insane Clown Posse.

The result was that people who counted themselves fans of Insane Clown Posse have been fired from their jobs, lost children in custody battles and were targeted and harassed by police.

Juggalos have been the subject of conversation here in the past...

Based on the criteria that the FBI used, almost any group of fans of many bands would gain the same label. Probably could use that to label fans of some college football teams as well...... Some food for thought as to just what the FBI might be able to do.

I can see that being possible for a few reasons that exist within my range of paranoia, but those numbers of people exceed the ability to watch - there has to be other criteria involved.

This is the type that will get you on a watch list. It can be used for making meth, steroids and anthrax.
