The troupe members often travel in costume, and worry that, if someone notices a van full of clowns and calls the police, they could end up in legal trouble."

People do dress up like clowns. There have not been any predators.

You have nothing to fear from creepy people wearing costumes.

As if on cue, I just went to the grocery store. The young cashier was talking aboout the “killer clowns” spotted in the next town over. I winked & laughed, but she got mad. She was serious. “Two killer clowns were photographed. It’s real!”

Me: “Did they do anything bad?”

“They attack CHILDREN!”

We have come so far since Salem! /sarc
