I had no idea things were so tough in the clown business.
Perhaps we could make up some kind of stimulus package for the circuses?

And another clown phobia arises

"One employee said, “No,” according to Huntley, and the suspect then pulled out a pistol, pointed it at them and said, “Please.”
He DID say 'Please'.
Still shoulda shot him, just for dressing up like a clown.

You know a reporter, possibly Vanessa Miller, was the one that asked the cops if there was a connection between the two robberies. Even though there are no simularities in the two crimes..in times, place or suspect description.
She's the kind that asks parents: "How do you feel?"..right after their kids are killed.

Did he have one of those clown guns that pops out a "Bang!" sign when you pull the trigger?
