The Juggalos respond
Area Juggalos (fans of Detroit Rap duo Insane Clown Posse) object to a local prosecutor’s characterization of some Juggalos as gangstas.
“We’re not a gang,” says Jeremiah Parker, 17, who goes by the ICP name Ringmaster.
Ringmaster paints his face wicked clown style, dons a Wraith (ICP’s grim reaper) t-shirt and fingerless gloves. But he denounced anybody who translates ICP’s violent lyrics into action.
“We’re just a family – mostly a fan-based family,” he said. “We love to listen to our music. We love to hang out with our family members.”
Hatchet Man and Lil Que also called. They concur.
