More than 1,000 diehard fans of rap group Insane Clown Posse gathered in Washington DC on Saturday to protest the FBI’s classification of them as a gang.

The band’s followers, called Juggalos, rallied in front of the Lincoln Memorial in a show of strength and unity. ICP is suing the Department of Justice to lift the FBI’s designation of Juggalos as a hybrid gang similar to the Crips.

The protesters listened to a series of speakers and musicians amid clouds of marijuana smoke. They chanted “Clown the Police State” and an obscenity about the FBI.

The Juggalos claim to be a nonviolent community subject to largely class-based discrimination by law enforcement.

Nearby, on the National Mall, about 500 Trump supporters assembled for a separate all-day demonstration and concert, though organizers predicted that number would grow as the day progressed.

Tweeted one smart alec: “#JuggaloMarch and Trump supporters both marching. One is a group of people who worship an insane clown, the other is a group of Juggalos.”
