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.
