No.
You aren’t gonna need them after Halloween.
Tennessee, Missouri, Texas.
I am surrounded by clowns.
Clowns to the left of me, jokers to the right,
Here I am, stuck in the middle with you
The slow March west continues.
Don’t worry – you’ll blend in? 
Everybody loves a clown, so why can’t you.
A clown has feelings too.
This is definitely one of the weirder mass panics.
I like how in the Louisiana grocery store incident the manager made the clowns leave. But clowns have to eat too!
The police in my area have been posting reminders that it’s a felony to wear a mask in a business.
So now we have actual crimes being committed - an attempt to break into a car and a bank robbery. I hope the idiot pranksters get the message that they are now, rightly or wrongly, being associated with dangerous criminals and that they are playing a dangerous game.
This is one bizarre phenomenon. My guess it will only end after Halloween.
Clowns? Good grief.
My vacation ends in a couple of days and someone else will have to take up the job of searching the Internet for clowns.
But until then:
Not necessarily. It may all have been precipitated by ICP releasing all 6 Jokers Cards in a box set.
I was jokingly acting concerned in that post, but now I am seriously wondering if I should consider a different costume.
