O.K. I think it is fair to say that the whole creepy clown things may be getting a little out of hand. Even Stephen King has come out in support of many nice clowns in the world.  I am guessing these were not any of those.

An Auburn woman was sitting on her porch around 5:30 in the evening in a neighborhood where families were out and about when an SUV pulled up in front of her house filled with...you guessed it, a Creepy clowns.

No big deal right? She described him,

"He had a red Afro wig on and a red nose," she said. "The smile was creepy — the painted-on one." He was wearing a "clown-looking shirt/costume," and his neck was white. She added, "I say, 'I'm not afraid of clowns,'" the woman said. "I started laughing. It's almost Halloween, so I didn't think too much about it." Until the clown formed a gun shape with his fingers, the woman said, and mouthed the word 'bang.'

Well he had messed with the wrong chicky cause this one happens to be licensed to carry and carry she does. She said:

"I picked up my 9 mm — I didn't point it at him directly," the woman said, "and said, 'Back at ya, clown.'"

The driver of the SUV decided was no longer the place for hijinks.

Yup, just like mom said it's all fun and games until somebody gets hurt.  Let's hope that's not coming.
