Juggalos & the Criminalization of Fans

In 2011, the FBI classified Juggalos - dedicated fans of horror rap group Insane Clown Posse - as a gang.  This led to Juggalos being profiled, harassed, and charged by law enforcement, and shows being canceled.  The band and several Juggalos teamed up with the ACLU to sue the FBI and the justice department.  This week, the CrimeJuicy gang picks this all the way apart - from human rights, freedom of speech, and freedom of assembly, to our favorite ICP songs and Faygo flavors, to insight into the mysterious and widely misunderstood subculture of the Juggalos.
