I don't understand why some adults are creeped out by them. Kids, maybe.

Depends on the clown, actually. I find most of the current clowns in government to be hysterical.

Clowns are funny. I just don-t understand fear of clowns.

Used to like them but they've been creepier in more recent years. Gives them all a bad rap.

They used to be fun but have turned to the dark side - it makes me sad that my grandchildren will not know the fun I grew up with-

They have scared me since I was a kid at the circus. I don`t know why someone would think that people in white with a ball for a nose, weird painted HUGE lips and orange hair would make a child laugh

Clown makeup is a mask where you can't determine who is really behind that mask.
