Really J. Edgar?!

More interesting is a Wired profile of ICP referred to in the above article: http://www.wired.com/magazine/2010/11/ff_icp/. I'm not a fan of the product, but you have to admire their DIY business approach. Reminds me of another DIY label we've come to know and love.
One in my city recently cut a girl to pieces and put her in a duffel bag.
That wired article was pretty interesting. I'd see the juggalo thing useful to be able to hide in plain sight for some. For all the juggalos cutting up people stuffing them up in duffel bags, there's probably 200 non-juggalos doing the same thing

I agree completely it is just funny how they all say they are family and then one cuts up another one.

So is it a good or bad thing that TMR is now associated with them?

Why do people think of TMR as being "associated" with ICP? They did one single. How frequently do you think of TMR as being "associated" with Transit or Chris Thile?

If they are named in an article with juggalos, they have been associated. Just because you don't normally, doesn't mean that they can't be

They've been associated by the publisher of that article. People who read the article should be able to make up their own minds. But we all know that doesn't happen nearly as often as it should.

Though how much attention is that article really getting? We happen to all be aware of it because we follow news about Jack, but this whole brouhaha has died down surprisingly quickly. I have trouble imagining this bringing it back up, unless people fixate on it.

my thoughts on this center around the basic understanding of what makes a juggalo part of the 'fam'

its not like TMR is some loose knit association of carni's that go around throwing up gang signs or hosting jello wrestling contests

the associations formed by TMR are not drug-based, theivery-based or generally established through the brotherhood of clown lore

generally speaking Jack does not seem to be the free-roaming rogue who casts the dice at the lowest common denominator

I guess in the end (without listening to the actual single - the only thing that TMR advocating by that single was tossing the salad
