​Evil clown outbreak leads French town to ban them for Halloween

Evil Clowns. Won't someone *Please* think of the Children?...

A French town has decided to ban clowns this Halloween after a wave of incidents involving freakish, terrorizing and sometimes violent clowns swept across the country.
Vendargues, a town of 6,000 residents in southern France, said it wants to temporarily outlaw clown costumes for the year's biggest time of costume parties to "avoid any disruption" during the festivities, Mayor Pierre Dudieuzere said.
"It's about protecting children by preventing any ill-intentioned clowns from mixing with residents," the town hall explained.
The ban applies to all people aged over 13 and will be in force in all public spaces on October 31 and November 1, an order published on the town's city hall website says.
