What is a Juggalo you ask? Depending on who you ask the answer will very. Some (in the family) may start spouting vulgar language at you in a friendly manner.

The true answer is that they are just a fan base of an obscure rap group based in Detroit. They are the same as Justin Beiber's Beliebers, Beyonce Beyhive, or the Kiss Army from back in the day. The only difference is that the FBI classified the "Juggalos" as a gang in 2011.

This reclassification is the whole reason of the Juggalo March. Over the past 6 years fans have been harassed by law inforcment, lost employment, had children taken by CPS, and the list goes on and on. The fans are not the only ones that have felt the effect of this. The band itself have ran into issues with merchandise sales, and concert venues canceling last minute.

So over the weekend Juggalos from all over the world descended on the Lincoln Memorial (The same place that Martin Luther King jr made his iconic I Have A Dream Speech.) in Washington DC to address their grievances against the FBI for violating their first amendment.

I am extremely thankful that i was able to attend, not only to help protect the first amendment, but more importantly to stand with my family.

WOOP WOOP!!!

Damn, I had no knowledge of the march, would have been awesome to experience a Fam gathering that large, 2nd only to the yearly Gathering of the Juggalos

It was amazing, and for it to happen right on the Mall was astonishing. They then has a free concert right there. I never expected to hear Neden Game live . . . That close to the Whitehouse

HAHA! WOOP WOOP!

Whoop Whoop! Thanks fam!

The unity between the left and right that day on the Mall was something that I have not felt for a very long time.

The time of awakening and ascension is upon us. one day we will all be united as one race of love instead of hate and the enemies will become family.. we are in the end times.. but it is the end of hate, Hang in there Fam. Keep spreading the word of love and keep on Steeming.
