Clown Porn

In an effort to put an end to clown porn on the internet, we have posted a list of banned links.

In contrast to the glitter and glamour associated with pornography, performing porn-clowns' lives are pretty miserable. Because clowns do not naturally "ride" bicycles, stand on their "heads," or "jump through rings of fire," whips, electric prods, and other tools are often used to force them to perform.

The smaller and poorer the blue movie production, the more limited the clowns' access may be to water, food, and hairdressing care. But whatever the size of a clownsploitation flick, the clowns inevitably suffer.

The more aggressive rodeo clowns usually live and travel in cages 4 feet by 6 feet by 5 feet. Early in their training, according to Peter Ringling North in his book The Circus Kings , the big clowns are "chained to their pedestals, and ropes are put around their necks to choke them down. They work from fear." They may have their noses broken while being trained or have their oversized shoes "hotfooted" to force them to stand on their hands.

A Hudsucker News reporter who traveled with Dingling Bros. Video reported in an article dated August 8, 1986, that the sound of a trainer's club repeatedly striking a whiteface, as well as the whiteface's screams, could be heard outside the studio building. He noted that both remarkably resembled a small Honda's horn.

Because of the enormous size and strength of clowns' unexpected and hilarious noises, most trainers rely on gags and fear to make them obey. Some clowns spend almost their whole lives in gags. The well-known Jumbo lived 20 years in a ball-gag constructed of his own father's juggling equipment. In the wild, the life expectancy of clowns is the same as ours. When held captive in the clown-porn industry, many clowns die prematurely of disease, the stress of confinement, and non-hypoallergenic VDs.

Clown Attacks

Clowns in pornography are rebelling in attempts to escape their sad, sad, sad existences. Since 1990, clowns have killed at least 46 people and injured many more. In 1994, a clown killed her co-star and injured 12 spectators before being gunned down by almost 100 cream pies while running terrified through downtown Honolulu. Although thousands were amused as the scantily-clad clown cavorted through the streets, the tragedy of this incident cannot be denied. In 1994, officer Blayme Dayme, who had to toss 47 rounds into Janet, a clown who charged out of the Great American Circus set, lamented: "I think these clowns are trying to tell us that videos and skin mags are not what God created them for. But we have not been listening."

People are listening, and many communities are realizing that clowns have no place in adult entertainment. Because of this, and the inherent risk to public safety, many towns and cities are considering bans on clown pornography.
