El Salvador Clowns Protest Over Criminal Impostors
You just can’t make this stuff up,
More than 100 clowns have taken to the streets in El Salvador to protest against the murder of a bus passenger killed by two “impostor clowns”.
Apparently in San Salvador, clowns regularly perform on public buses, picking up tips from passengers — that must be how public transportation works in hell, too. In early June 2010 a couple of thugs dressed up as clowns, boarded a bus, and shot a man who refused to give them money.
The clowns responded by organizing a protest to point out that, hey, clowns are people too. Carlos Vasquez, who was described in press reports as the clown union leader [insert joke about union leaders as clowns here] told the Associated Press and Sky News that the union was working on a plan to issue ID cards to real clowns.
The only thing that would have made this story more surreal is if they had referred to one of the killers as the Clown Prince of Crime.
