The worst circus experience ever - Guaranteed
BBC NEWS | Americas | Colombia clowns killed on stage
Evidently this is becoming a trend as a similar situation happend earlier in the year... I'll pass on Columbian circuses...

Murder itself is a terrible, unspeakable thing, but to do it in front of all those children is pretty savage. One can only wonder what the motive was.

That article is from February 2007; probably the same incident you're thinking of, Jolly.

Ah sorry - My post was unclear.
Within the post it mentions that "Last year, a prominent circus clown, known as Pepe, was also shot dead by a unknown assailant in Cucuta." In addition to the 2 shot at the time of the circus. I can't imagine it being a conspiracy to kill clowns in South America so much as a more mundane explanation of it being in Columbia where people are shot all the time...

It was only a matter of time before somebody tried to kill clowns. I think George Carlin hit the nail on the head, when he spoke of anti-clown/anti-comedian bias.
"What's the first thing that a bank robber says? 'Don't try anything funny. First one to try something funny is going to get it.' I wait until he isn't looking, and then I go [funny noise and gestures.]"

He was a little crude and a lot controversial - but I'll miss the comedy of George Carlin.

Who runs to the rescue of entertaining the audience and saving the show when someone kills the clowns?
