Juggalos Like to Smoke Weed, Too

Posted by on Mon, Sep 14, 2009 at 1:33 PM

Post by news intern Alexander P. Brown

Seattle police arrested another member of the Juggalo family last week, after officers found about half an ounce of weed on a jaywalking Juggalo.

According to a police report, on September 10th, officers were on foot patrol at 7th and Pine when a group of group of five men and women crossed the street in front of them against the traffic light. After stopping the group and running their ID’s, police discovered one of the men had an outstanding warrant.

Police searched the young man and found nineteen individually packaged bags of marijuana weighing seventeen grams, a pipe, and a makeshift club, made out of three padlocks attached to a chain, one of which appeared to have some blood on it.

The teen told officers he bought the weed on 3rd and Pine St. and that it was all for personal consumption.
According to the report, the young man had tattoos that identify him as a Juggalo, including, a left arm design incorporating the Letters “ICP”, a Hatchet Man on his upper back, and a neck tattoo reading “420 Goon Squad.”

The teen identified himself as a member of the 420 Goon Squad but also stated that he “is trying to distance himself from them because they are getting into trouble and getting arrested.”

The police report identifies the teen as a member of a street gang, but does not specify whether police believe the 420 Goon Squad or the Juggalos are a gang.

You know I actually found a GAY juggalo. I didn't think they existed, but they do!

Being attracted to someone of the same gender doesn't mean you can't have horrible taste. Look at the Log Cabin Repubs.

Not a proponent of Juggaloism or anything but these kids got searched for crossing a street against the signal at 4:30am? That sounds like some bull shit to me.

@6: 'tards who are far too into Insane Clown Posse. The fact that you didn't know that speaks volumes, all of it good. :)

It sounds like the guy was arrested after they found an outstanding warrant on him. Then, while arresting him, they found 19 dime bags. Kind of odd that the outstanding warrant gets underplayed in the post.

Well, not really that odd.

@10 - they used to do that to everyone, way back when - the lax enforcement today makes it stand out now.

I'd be more concerned with the makeshift club spotted with blood.

@14 seriously?

Anyone over the age of 14 that listens to ICP should be beaten with a stick.

Did you see the article about evolution Dan posted today?

"It is clear that lifelong same-sex orientation is unlikely to evolve"

@17:
Way to -
1) post in the wrong comments section,
2) have apparently stopped reading the article after that sentence,
3) failed to understand that "unlikely" doesn't mean "impossible." In fact, "unlikely" means that something _is_ possible (and in this case, actually occurs! That's the point of the article, in case you missed it),
4) managed to get me to reply to an anonymous troll on the internet. Bravo, sir.

@19: I'm pretty sure that it's a type of cured and smoked pork.
