What course, and what kind of questions?

I took his interview.

how old are you

how old were you when you got into the group

what are the goals of the group

what made you join the juggalos?

how do you view nonjuggalos?

are there any juggalos with more authority than others?

dude sounds like he’s either trying to prove we’re a gang, or just operating under the assumption we are one. I don’t like it, and reiterated that several times.

Hey! Thanks for replying. 

Here are some questions.

 

How old are you?

 

How old were you when you got involved in this group?

 

What would you say is the main purpose or goal for being a Juggalo?

 

What made you join the group?

 

How do you view people that are not Juggalos?

 

Are there some Juggalos that have more authority than others?

 

 

 

Thanks again! 

 

 

 

I’m 19

I was 17 when I first started identifying myself within the juggalo culture.

There isn’t a purpose, or goal, of being a juggalo. Juggalos are juggalos, everyone hates us, no one understands us, and we all kinda came together for that reason. We’re hated for the same reasons, and we like all the same shit. that’s all there really is to it, and that’s why we love each other.

You don’t “join” juggalos, we’re not a gang, we’re not a team, or a business–just people who have common interests and come together based on those interests. That being said, I was compelled to go out and by Insane Clown Posse’s upcoming album, The Mighty Death Pop, in 2012 after I stumbled upon their music on youtube. After buying that album, I was hooked and knew I had found where I belonged.

I view non-juggalos the same way you view non-juggalos. They’re just people. Probably assholes, maybe nice, etc. I don’t treat them any better or worse than I did before I considered myself a juggalo.

No, there are not any juggalos with more authority than others. I repeat, we are not a gang, we are not a team, a social club, or a business. Just a group of people with the same interests and who happen to fall under one name.

 

 And then

Thank you! This is very helpful.

What was your life like before being a Juggalo?

In a sense, the same as it is now. I was never popular, yet I’m very out going. People either love me or hate me, and typically lean toward the latter. I’ve never been a loner–i love people, but I’ve never had any sense of belonging prior to discovering the juggalo world. The only true difference between before and after I began identifying myself within the juggalo culture is that now I have a group of people outside blood relatives that I relate with and feel that I belong in. Juggalos, for the most part, are great people and I’m proud to call myself one.

thoughtful, and way more diplomatic than i tend to be.  you can be my spokesperson any time, ltb.  

  

i still wanna know exactly what ‘course’ requires you to interview a juggalo.  

  

I hope when the time comes that I am called to action in this capacity that I rise to the occassion. And on the topic of courses that have less than believable assignments, I wanna know what college wouldn’t shit can a professor for demanding students denounce the existence of God lest they be ridiculed or dropped from the course. (There’s a movie in theaters titled, God’s Not Dead in which this is the plot. The devoutly christian protagonist must compile hard evidence of the existence of God and then engage the professor in a debate and win or he will be failed.)

Well I’m pretty sure it’s supposed to be based on a true story

I agree. The phrasing of these questions sound suspect. The usage of the word ‘juggalo’ seems too much like it’s meant to imply a singular entity like a gang or organization of some sort. Beware.
