Kemper County Sups outlaw clowns

Kemper County outlaws clowns through Halloween

While many were focused on this week’s presidential debate, Kemper County’s board of supervisors was tackling a real issue: clowns.

Specifically, the board made it illegal for clowns to appear in public until the day after Halloween, as reported by the Kemper County Messenger.

County officials deemed the recent clown-scares sweeping the nation as justification for dashing the dreams of residents who already purchased their evil clown garb and were counting down the days until they could freak their friends out.
