ABC's Nightline Looks At Insane Clown Posse, Juggalo Crime

Insane Clown Posse

Most of you Insane Clown Posse fans probably don't go around beating people to death with hammers and suffocating people with duct tape because you heard Violent J and Shaggy 2 Dope rap about it. [You just have fantasies about it.]

But those of you who do have prompted ABC to make a Nightline documentary about Insane Clown Posse, Juggalos and whether the rap duo are responsible for Juggalo-related acts of violent crime.

Nightline host Martin Bashir, who was responsible for that infamous Michael Jackson documentary, Living With Michael Jackson, narrates the spot and also talks to Shaggy 2 Dope and Violent J about it.

The cops in this documentary seem to genuinely believe that Juggalos are responsible for increasing amounts of violent crime, and the documentary actually suggests one of the police officers believes the duo need to be "more careful" with their lyrics. Juggalos are classified as a gang in a few U.S. states.

I'm surprised Violent J didn't get up and dump Faygo all over Bashir when he got peeved off at his questions. In any case, there's a lot of inadvertent humour in this doc:

You can see Insane Clown Posse on March 20 at Philadelphia's Electric Factory and on April 6 at Pontiac, Mich.'s Crofoot Ballroom.
