Reports of “killer clowns” have emerged in three new states, as Virginia, Florida and Colorado struggle with Internet rumors and reported sightings that have left several towns shaken.

Residents and authorities in Palm Bay, Fla., have been on high alert since a resident reported seeing two “creepy clowns” staring at her from across a road as she walked her dog. And in Marion County, Fla., deputies are concerned after it emerged that a Facebook viral video, depicting a clown standing silently on the side of the road in the dark, had been filmed along a main thoroughfare in the area.

The video has more than a million views on Facebook.

In Henrico County, Va., a mother and daughter captured a “creepy clown” leering at them from another car during rush hour.

Clownpocalypse

It's the darndest thing anyone ever heard of.

Do these people even know that there was no such thing as a clown phobia until Steven King made his B movie?

Do they not know how foolish they look?

And, lastly, did anyone know that in Colorado it's a FELONY to impersonate a clown for nefarious purposes?

Punishable by 18months in state prison.

Three people in Kentucky have already been arrested and charged with "making terroristic threats" for dressing up as clowns and waving at people from the edge of the woods.

Much easier to shoot clowns on sight than muzzies.

I say: do it.

They have always creeped me out.

I saw Bozo live at the studio during his hey day in the 60s on WGN. Was a different and more friendly attitude towards clowns back then, which changed forever when John Wayne Gary terrorized the Chicago area in the 70s/80s

Going to see Bozo was a BIG DEAL when I was a kid.

And didn't he also have his own kids show for a while?

It’s interesting that the TV Bozo was a “franchise” - that is, each market had it’s own local guy plating Bozo. Usually some announcer, weekend weather guy or the like.

Same with “Romper Room”, each market has it’s own “Miss” Whoever as the teacher.

Kid’s show were great back in the day!
