Annoying the Neighbors

I love how she reads the letter! She seems to take notes from strange people as well as I do.

Loose Interpretation of Gang Members

The A.V. Club has an article Strange Times at the 2012 Gathering of the Juggalos by Nathan Rabin that was posted yesterday. I have heard of Insane Clown Posse and have heard of The Gathering which is their annual festival, but I can't say I have ever listened to any of there music.  The most interesting part of the article for me was when they mentioned that several states and some law enforcement agencies are loosely considering Juggalos (ICP fans) a gang! I then felt the need to watch the video that was shown in the article which was a few years old and talked about some of the violent crimes that fans had committed. Because some of the weapons were similar to what was mentioned in the songs now law enforcement officials think the band's music is reponsible. The interview is pretty funny because one of the band members totally calls the interviewer out for sounding all "smart as a ..."! These guys don't sound stupid and obviously they are smart enough to continue making money after decades. The band members point out the ridiculousness of saying these crimes were committed because of there music.  The interview almost sounds like at one point that he is saying that fans are just trying to commit the same crimes as the band members. I do not really keep up with this band but I think I would have heard if they had killed people with hatchets! To imply that fans of there music are gang members because some have committed crimes would be like saying all Christians are gang members because a few have blown up abortion clinics or committed horrible crimes!
