Let's be honest

        Juggalo's are a society in which family and prosperity are pushed heavily. Let's be honest over the years the younger generations have turned us upside down. A team based group whom has been given a bad wrap from day one don't just produce evil murderous teen's into society. There are police, officials, family, and more whom follow the Juggalo culture. As a whole people are judged by their affiliation to the music group but truth be told not every LO or Lette is a gang member. Over 1/4 of the graduate college, 33% never even get as much as a speeding ticket. So why were they classified as gang members by the FBI? Because a small percentage of Juggalo's committed crimes in the name of the family. This along with the violence created by a younger crowed of young followers has set the image of our culture of that of a gang. We blame the FBI, or the police. It's not their fault. Yes the FBI was wrong in classifying us as a gang. But in the same respect we have young members of our family killing, raping and hurting others for no reason. This will put a bad glow on any group no matter the nature.


         Instead of playing the blame game, or pointing fingers, let's make a real difference. Show the younger community what family is all about. Let's not resort to violence first, instead act like reasonable people of whom have common seance. Once we begin to make a change in our community, maby, just maby then people will lay off a little. If we preach stability, while still
enjoying our shows, music, and lives then we win.
