What juggalos and insane clown posse do to youth – son was brainwashed by insane clown posse


heres a parents comments about their son being a juggalo – it breaks my heart how a good kid can now go on a bad path by following the crowed and becoming a juggalo .

I have a 13 year old son who attends school here on the reservation (no its not a forgien country). These “juggalos” are a huge problem here as well. The Canyon Day junior High School had to take action to completely ban, any type of association with this band/group, “ICP”.
My own child was getting caught up in the situation, he was making self tattoos on his body, wearing the clothing under his uniform, and had his ipod on 24-7. Its almost like he was being ‘brainwashed‘. His grades droped dramatically in school, his entire attitude was negative. I honestly believe listening to this music had a lot to do with it.
As a parent I took responsibility and sat down with my son and listened to the music, from what I could hear and understand the music ‘defies authority’, encourages ‘self mutilation’, and was singing about ‘God’. Ok i don’t think it was gospel music, and don’t think it was our lord and savior ‘God’, that they were singing about.
I have since taken his ipod away and have erased the memory off of our computer. In hopes that this will keep him from listening to the music. 13 years old is a hard age and my son did not need this negative type of influence. As a parents we need to be more aware of what our children are listening to. I did know but did not make an effort to listen, until it got out of hand.

  1. Wow, i’ve heard people talk about horrorcore like this before but real talk you took it to the max. I’m so sick of people like you acting like they actually know what they are talking about. I can completely understand if you don’t want your son listening to icp but in absolutely no way did they or any other artist have anything to do with his behavior. Music is not the cause of any persons behavior & i’m a bit angery your tryna but the blame off on them like that. I’m a fifteen year old girl from chatt town tennessee & i’ve proudly been a juggalette for three years, i make a’s & b’s for the most part..maybe my parents should thank Shaggy & Violent J for my good grades huh? Obviously you do not approve of this genre of music, & honestly i respect that. Think about it though, what kind of music do you listen to? …i’m guessing country, i may be wrong but it’s just an example, country is so depressing & monotone, it’s always about getting drunk & losing your ole lady? But i dont see you blaming these redneck drunks for anyones behavior? ..i’m just tryna point somethings out respectfuly, i hope you really give it some thought.
    Thank you for your time:),
    Holly.

  2. dead carni child

    ok the music isnt the problem. you guys always talk down on juggalos and lettes ok but wat about the mainstream music? all this rap most ppl listen to like slim anus etc. talk bout killin n shit but u wont blame dem for the murder in the streets yet u wanna diss the hatchet fam callin us a gang and shit? u make no sense. the music doesnt “brainwash” ppl u haters do u make ppl wanna believe wat u do. and i can understand the parents concearn but u need to let ur kids be who they r. ive been down for 8 yrs now.. ever since i was 9 and i aint all that bad.

    • You are a direct example of what ICP does to people. They are not like Eminem at all, so I suggest you not relate them to him. ICP tells people to do cult-like shit, unlike Eminem and other mainstream artists who just rap/sing about it and actually advise AGAINST it. You are just an ignorant juggafag, so shut the fuck up.

  3. u know holly now a days people turn to were they feel at home with them self or feel connected to something. u cant blame juggalos for the way your son lashes out, kids lash out when they are trying to open there parents eyes. juggalos for so long have been put down cause of a few people, juggalo or not has done things to make the whole world form this very messed up hate for juggalos i have seen so much good come from juggalos an give people something to be apart of a family that cares.yes there are some juggalos that mess it up for the rest of us but people are people every morning they get up an they make that choice to do that an its wrong to hate some one u dont know just for the cloths they were or the music they lisson to.now this other stuff i heard about those three juggalos got poisoned those were three kids, people that some one hurt an there fighting for there lives thats wrong people do messed up things to people an calling it some thing else to say they had a reason cause they hate juggalos i say be who u are live how u want to live god said love thy neighbor.

  4. Lol Who ever the mom is it isnt the music its ur kid and ur mothering skills icp is a religious group thay talk about mas murder but only the the ppls who deserve the Rapist like aparently these guys here on this sight. Pedos. and abousers. The 6 jokers cards are all refrenses to god. Thay always refer to god. The juggalos out there who cant see this arnt really juggalos and thay dont see the msg and take it the wrong way as ur son did. And its ur mothering skills at fault if u couldn’t teach ur son from wright and wrong for him to determine between the two how do u expect him to reat when hes faced with a sitation were he as to do so?

  5. OMG ALL OF YOU PEOPLE POSTING COMMENTS ON HERE ARE FUCKING RETARDED.

  6. this website is a joke i think us juggalos and juggalettes spend more time on here than everybody else just to see wat the world has brought upon us.. we dont give a fuck if u hate we just keep out middle fingers high and say fuck the world.. just show ur damn face and let us see who u are instead of hiding behind a fucking computer screen u bitch ass fucker..we dont give a fuck how people think of us the world is against us we arent against the world. SOOO wat if the parent lets there 13 year old sun get icp tattoos and if parents dont want there kids to listen to icp then so be it im in college and i been a juggalo for 11 years

    WHATS WRONG IS A PARENT IS BRANDING A 13 YEAR OLD AS A FUCK HEAD JUGGALO
    FINE IF THEY WAIT TILL THEY ARE 18 AND DO IT TO THEMSELVES BUT THE PARENT SHOULD BE ASHAMED AND WILL BE BAILING THE KID OUT OF JAIL IN THE NEXT FEW YEARS

  10. Juggalos are fucking gay!!!!

    A jugaloos is a fat smelly kid who worships clowns but the clowns are just making all the fat smelly kids money oh and the fat smelly kid with greasy hair that never takes a shower is a fucking loooooser get a life jugaloos you alll are fucking loosers and are ruining society dumb fucking jugaloos go fuck some farm animals! hahaha

  11. Is there anyone intelligent out there with something to say about this? I have been watching youtube videos of interviews with the band, and from kids who want to be a juggalo, and I just feel sorry for these young kids who are looking for something good and true in the world. I believe that many of the juggalos/ettes do represent goodness and truth, and love, and that they are seeking their own “chosen” family. But I am not hearing any intelligent conversation around the content of the lyrics, or the attitude of the band. I hear a lot of defending and justifying, saying that it is the parents job, or lack of doing a good job parenting, that leads kids into crime and violence, and that it is not song lyrics that make people do bad things. I am hearing that there are just some bad apples in the bunch, etc, etc. OK, I get it. But, seriously, why, if you are all about family and love, do you sing about hate and violence? Why do so many crazy people identify with this group? When I saw the band members in the interviews, and their attitudes around the record companies, portraying the record execs as evil for making money off of things (like ICP albums)they think are wrong, I thought to myself, “these guys (band ) are just as bad……making a buck (actually, a shit ton of money!) off of kids that want something to believe in”. That is sad. If you want to make the world a better place, do good deeds in the world. If you want to make the world just a better place just for YOU and your juggalo friends, well, that is a tad selfish and sad. I hope you grow out of it. Soon.

  12. Anyone who says music has no effect on a persons behavior is either blind to their surroundings or a liar. For some reason rap has the biggest negative effect on the population. 90% of your average criminals listen to rap almost exclusively and about a quarter of them are die hard juggalos. I have never met a person who has graduated college or anyone in a successful business practice who was ever a juggalo. I’m sure a few exist but they probably make up 1% of the juggalo population. The fact is over 70% of juggalos are habitual drug users and self mutilators and about 35% of them are also violent law breakers, be it murderers or armed robbers.
    They let this music run their lives much like an organized religion. In some ways they are worse than Muslims.

    In a video interview of ICP Shaggy 2dope said that getting women to have sex with you is more important than math science. If that is the kind of role models kids have today then I fear for this world.

    • Get real. I own a very successful renovation and restoration company and am opening another business enture on the side. I graduated high school and college(several different areas including business,graphic design and even a sterilization and safety techniques course). I am an avid volunteer with special needs families, I am a card carrying First Responder, a devoted husband and a loving(and very loved) father of four amazing kids. Guess what!!!!! I AM A JUGGALO!! Whoop Whoop. MMFWCL.

  13. Ohhhh Hell!! If you think that ICP Brainwashes people then you don’t know the Christain religion very well! This is NOT a cult, this does NOT do with childerens behavior (the parents are the ones to blame in the first place if the child KILLS someone… obviously they were messed up anyway) and if you don’t like this type of music your child is listen to then YOU’RE the freakin parent! TAKE it away from them if you feel so compelled to…

    It really isn’t the responsibility of an artist to control how their creation is understood and interpreted by their audience. It is up to parents to teach their children about how the world operates in a way that lets them choose their own way.

    My kids will know who ICP is and while they may like their music, they will know that they are a creation of corporate america just like almost any other band. Seriously, when it comes to hypocrisy over “selling out”, only Linkin Park is more of a sell out than ICP.

    At the end of the day most at risk kids are looking for two things, a group to belong to, and people to support their failures. Fellow Juggalos and Juggalettes are great for telling you how much they hate being a part of the system, but fail to ever come up with a way to move out of their parent’s basement before age 35.

    Personally, my favorite song is Lets Go All The Way. I listen to it, enjoy it, but I leave it in the car when I go to work. Everyone should have multiple identities for different environments.

  15. Every person here showing support for ICP are clearly of very low intellegence. Unhappy people are drawn to this crap you call music! Rather than taking on a positive attitude about life and people or getting help for your issues, you turn to this crap to justify your anger (based on your feelibgs of unacceptance and inferiority in the world). In turn, the tone and lyrics of ICP intensify your anger and turn it to pure hatred. Disrespect is the basis of ICP…the “f— everyone and everything” mentality IS indeed harmful to a young and impressionable mind!! How about focusung on improving yourself and work on having a healthy, happy and productive life rather than getting all wrapped up in this foolishness!! Yes, that’s what it is…messed up foolishness!!! ICP are idiots and those that follow are weak and think violence and hatred will make people see them as strong!! You’re all kidding yourselves and lowering yourself by supporting anything about ICP!! LOSERS!!!

  16. WOW….im 13 not a juggalet but wont 2 be someday…..dont be blamin shit on icp u dont no nothin about them or the juggalos………and juggalos rnt bad. i had a fuckd up life in my passd i had bad grades bad family didnt talk much 2 my mom and dad…….my dad almost killd him self i saw the hole thing when i was 12….after that i got into the juggalo/juggalet stuff and i have had good grades ive hung out more with the family but now i have a awsome family and im glad 2 fuckin share it with the juggalos…..so just cuz u haters call us a gang….dosnt mean we r fuckin bad look at it 4 me it made my life better………..so dont be talkin shit about the juggalos…u dont no shit about us u just no what u think…..we r a family that has echuthas backs unlike u hatters…….let ur son be a teen if he fucks up o well everyone dose sometime in there life will maybe its his time…….and i think hes makin a good chosie…just let him be…..i no that ur a mom and care and worrie about ur son ya thats how my mom was and still is…………but just dont get on here talkin shit about my family thats fucked up like u……..u ant nothin but ur son will be somethin if u let him do what the fuck he wonts………..HATTER……….

    Tip of the day: Type up your post in word so you can spell check it. Then copy/paste it onto the internet. This adds a little credibility to your post and the artist will appreciate the extra effort.

  20. Mcl whoop whoop

  21. Im just going to say that ICP isnt the problem, but kids that need community and family flock to like minded kids. The problem comes in when ultimately the child chooses to follow the crowd into crime instead of standing up for what is moral and right. Not every child who is a Juggalo or Juggalette comes from a broken home or poor parents… but a significant amount of them have either a difficult or dissatisfying home life. My daughter is struggling to get out of the lifestyle – whether its a gang, cult, family or community….you are ultimately responsible for your own chokces.

  22. Listen, People like you said the same things during the Columbine killings. Everyone wanted to blame Marilyn Manson. In an interveiw, he(manson) stated that if you really want to point the finger, stand in Times Square blid-folded, spin around 5 times and point. You will most assuredly be pointing at one of the people responsible.The blame falls on all of our shoulders as a collective society.I am a Juggalo and even I can point some of the blame for violent or negative behavior at the Juggalo lifestyle. But before you call me a sellout, consider this. Out of the entire Juggalo/lette population, how many have taken the messages wrong and turned down the wrong path, citing ICP’s messages as the reason? Ok. How many of the worlds population have murdered numerous people on a killing spree, citing God’s message as the reason? How many priest’s are getting caught up in molest hearings or scandals? I don’t say this to offend catholics or priest’s and certainly not my Ninja’z or Ninjettes out there, but don’t you people think that condemning an entire group for the actions of a percentage is a little to reminiscent of the holocaust or the long history of racism toward african-americans? The jews were hated by one man. He gathered some sheep into his flock and they brought about an insane campaign to wipe out(or in your case ban and criminalize) an entire race(culture.) It truly is views like these that destroy kids minds.Teaching people, especially children, to hate and reject someone because of race, religion, lifstyle/cultural differences or any other prejudicial/racial/sexist reason is morally reprehensible. If you wanna preach the word of God than you must preach the meanings of free will, acceptance and understanding.Otherwise, you are the cult, forcing your uni-lateral views onto society.

  23. mmfwcl its you christan dumbass mother fuckas thats causing any kid to kill him/her self wat the fuck a person does is based soley on thet fuckers mind we aint no cult and read this Christian & Muslims have the highest Suicide rates in the world .
