Re: Killer clown prankster gets punched & gun drawn on him
My wife works as a consultant for schools in Houston, and she tells me that this is causing a major headache at a lot of her campuses. I told her they should arm a few teachers and put a stop to it. Then again, I'm not nearly as patient as she is.

Do people think the clown suit grants its wearer magical powers or something? An attacker in a really obvious "pay attention to me" outfit is a heck of a lot less dangerous than one who blends in and gets within arm's reach before you recognize a threat.

Kinda hard to sneak up on someone in a clown mask and suit. One of these idiots will end up getting hurt or killed.

I just heard on the radio that the police are telling people do not shoot clowns. I agree unless the clown is doing what some of them on youtube videos are doing and chasing people with a sledge hammer, chain saw, or ax, one of them will end up getting shot.
In certain extreme situations, the law is inadequate. In order to shame its inadequacy, it is necessary to act outside the law to pursue a natural justice.

Yeah, if they want to be a clown they need to join a circus. I have never felt the need to shoot any clowns at Barnum and Bailey.

Or they could run for public office. We see plenty of clowns every couple years on debate stages. There was one wearing a red tie last night.Jusme wrote:jason812 wrote:Pawpaw wrote:Once the air gets let out of a few of them, it will stop.

Or a rodeo. Not sure what caliber it takes to put down a guy who mixes it up with bulls voluntarily, but I'm betting it takes a big vehicle to tow.Jusme wrote:Yeah, if they want to be a clown they need to join a circus.

IMHO, rodeo clowns are real men with exciting and dangerous jobs; while these pranksters are just clowns in a lack of maturity way.KD5NRH wrote:Or a rodeo.

One of the news stations in DFW had a story on these idiots the other night, which set me off on a rant that greatly amused my wife.

Clown suit, bear suit, members of YMCA suits, birthday suits - don't matter if they are coming at me with a deadly weapon - probably gonna get drawn on and ordered to stop.jason812 wrote:Pawpaw wrote:Once the air gets let out of a few of them, it will stop.

Clown in my neighborhood (like street next over) was chasing kids with a baseball bat. He has been apprehended by police.
Some people in the neighborhood said he had mental problems. Hope he gets the help he needs now.
Found an article for it.

They are here in San Antonio as well. My brother saw one yesterday.
Of course the media has reported on them already. I'm sure that is what they want.
