The fact these clowns are so elusive is another indication of the sparsity of cops, “when you need them.” Consider the number of cop/clown contacts so far (1) with the number of citizen/clown contacts (many) and apply this same ratio to criminals. This is why concealed carry is a good thing.

I'm not sure how you can derive that. Are you equating contacts with arrests? There may have been lot's of cop/clown contacts, only one resulted in arrest. I read about this story days ago and the police reported that the clowns weren't breaking any laws or doing anything untoward.

Sounds like the one arrest that did occur was a kid who took it a little bit too far.

IMO this is more or less a bit of that "guerilla marketing" we've seen in the past. I wouldn't be surprised to see some sort of movie ad come out before this is all said and done.
