I live in the edge of the woods, southern US. Woke up last night to get a drink and piss, saw one walking down the road.

I think the scariest part of scary clowns is that under all that makeup, they're actually just people. It's people doing these things.

you know that they would make one of those bizarre movies like cabin in the woods with whats happening in usa

If you're in London, there's aliens almost every Christmas! I learned that from watching Dr. Who.

I'v only heard stories; people beating & shooting clowns, and some times attacking women with too much makeup. I guess America hates clowns?
ARandomHelljumper
It's more the fact that they are carrying legitimate knives and guns and specifically threatening children with death outside schools.
NoNoNoPlsNo
Yeah. I was just kinda pointing out what image news on the other side of Atlantic give on the subject.

Dumbass kids are pretending to be scary clowns and cry when we arrest them for disorderly conduct. Oh and one got shot by an old man.
CanUweldOil
K figured an old man would be first to draw blood. Is it kids just doing it cause they think it's funny, or is it more related to a cult

I'm pretty sure all of this Clown drama is to increase the hype of the new IT movie coming out
Vockstar
Yeah I was just commenting on someone else's comment here that I think that it's crazy hype campaign turned bad
acerkake
The movie studio behind IT has stated that they are " absolutely not involved in the rash of clown sightings." Scary as fuck imo.
guccistains
People think those were the original clown sightings but it has inspired all these copy cats. The studio and King also deny any involvement
CookingBaconDrunkAndNaked
Maybe initially, but one person was killed and several confirmed attempts at kidnapping. It's real now.
guccistains
Yea that's what i meant by the original sightings, first few were for the movie, but then the media got ahold if it and que copy cats.
Rhulain
I'm sorry, the new WHAT!? They're remaking the movie that created Coulrophobia?

Multiple schools in my area have been put on lock down because of this. Bay area is under clown attack.

In a county near where I live, the clowns have made kidnapping/death threats to teachers and students through FB.

CookingBaconDrunkAndNaked
A kid really did get stabbed by one in Pennsylvania. They are dangerous. I, for one, will shoot one if it comes at me.
WhiskeyDe
You for one might get incarcerated
BigDaddysMeatWagon
actually that's unlikely. Wearing masks is illegal in the U.S. and being aggressive while wearing one... yeah, self defence will hold.

Thank you for that. It will, especially because I live in NV.

I've also heard that some guy shot a clown because it charged at his car or something. Apparently they like to charge at cars at night
