The hip-hop group hopes to revive a lawsuit alleging its fans suffered harassment and discrimination after being painted as a criminal gang in a government report. 
  
 On Tuesday, the Insane Clown Posse and four of their "Juggalo" fans asked the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to review a judge's ruling late last month rejecting the hip-hop group's lawsuit against the Justice Department.

 The dispute emanated from a 2011 gang threat assessment issued by the National Gang Intelligence Center. The report was intended to examine emerging trends and threats posed by criminal gangs throughout the United States. In a section on "non-traditional gangs," the authors flagged some Juggalos as "forming more organized subsets and engaging in more gang-like criminal activity, such as felony assaults, thefts, robberies, and drug sales." 
  
 The report eventually led to a lawsuit from Insane Clown Posse members Joseph Bruce (aka Violent J) and Joseph Utsler (aka Shaggy 2 Dope), along with four fans who reported various forms of harassment. One Juggalo, for instance, was stopped by a state trooper and asked whether he had any axes, hatchets or other chopping instruments in his truck. Another visited a U.S. Army recruiting station and was told that he would have to remove or permanently cover his tattoos in order for his application to be considered. 
  
 The ACLU represented the band and its fans and alleged in Michigan federal court that the DOJ and FBI had committed constitutional violations under the Administrative Procedure Act. Specifically, the plaintiffs identified the First Amendment's freedom of association and freedom of expression as well as the Fifth Amendment's right of due process.

 But in a ruling dismissing the lawsuit on June 30, U.S. District Judge Robert Cleland identified the failings of the claims. "Five of the six Plaintiffs complain of independent actions by third-parties who are not currently before the court," wrote the judge. 
  
 Judge Cleland added that there wasn't any indication that either the FBI or DOJ directed state police to detain and question the plaintiff-juggalos nor participated in the U.S. Army's treatment of the applicant-juggalo. 
  
 And as for Bruce and Utsler, who attempted to allege injury on the basis that a Royal Oak, Mich., concert was canceled at the local police department's request, they too failed for lack of any allegation that federal authorities had directed the cancelation. "The court’s review of the NGTA illustrates the voluntary nature of this conduct by independent actors," concluded the judge. 
  
 Here's the judge's full opinion, which will now have juggalos in attendance at a federal appeals court at a to-be-determined date. 
  
 Twitter: @eriqgardner ||||| DETROIT, MI -- U.S. District Judge Robert Cleland last week dismissed a lawsuit filed by the Insane Clown Posse against the FBI, and the Detroit music duo on Tuesday filed notice of intention to appeal the decision. 
  
 ICP, known for explicit lyrics, face paint and a diehard following that created the "Juggalo" subculture, claimed a 2011 FBI report caused their fans to be detained, questioned and harassed by law enforcement agencies across the country. (View the complaint here.) 
  
 The American Civil Liberties Union filed the lawsuit in January on behalf of performers Violent J and Shaggy 2 Dope -- whose real names are Joseph Bruce and Joseph Utsler -- along with four ICP fans. 
  
 After hearing arguments from either sides in June, Cleland last week granted the government's motion to dismiss the case. (View the full ruling here.) 
  
 The lawsuit claimed violations of "First Amendment rights to express their identity as Juggalos." 
  
 Plaintiff Scott Gandy was forced to turn his Juggalo tattoo into a fish in order to apply to join the Army, "compelled to say 'I like fish,' instead of 'I like ICP,'" his lawyer Saura Sahu said in a June hearing, 
  
 The FBI's 2011 National Gang Threat Assessment report described Juggalos as "a loosely-organized hybrid gang" that was "rapidly expanding into many US communities." (View that full document here.) 
  
 U.S. Justice Department attorney Amy Powell argued that the report did not compel or condone any action by any agency, and did not label all Juggalos as gang members. 
  
 She argued that the police agencies who stopped, detained, searched or questioned Juggalos acted independently, and Cleland agreed. 
  
 "Because any adjudication on the merits would involve speculation about the decisions of these independent actors, the court finds that Plaintiffs have not properly alleged constitutional standing to bring their claims before the court," the judge ruled. 
  
 He also noted that a new 2013 FBI report on emerging trends, published two months after the lawsuit was filed, does not mention Juggalos. 
  
 "An injunction mandating the retraction of the 2011 NGTA, even if warranted, would not compel or enjoin any action by the various independent actors who allegedly caused Plaintiffs’ injuries, and who are not parties to this action," Cleland wrote. 
  
 "The court finds that it is 'merely speculative' to assert that Plaintiffs’ alleged injury 
  
 would be redressed by a decision in their favor." 
  
 The case will move on to the U.S. 6th Circuit Court of Appeals. ||||| DETROIT (AP) — The federal government can't be blamed for any fallout from a 2011 FBI report that put a gang tag on fans of the music group Insane Clown Posse, a judge said. 
  
 U.S. District Judge Robert Cleland dismissed a lawsuit by the rap-metal duo and fans, known as Juggalos, who said they've been targeted by police because they have jewelry or tattoos with the group's symbol, a man running with a hatchet. 
  
 Cleland said the U.S. Justice Department is not responsible for how authorities use a national report on gangs. 
  
 The report "does not recommend any particular course of action for local law enforcement to follow, and instead operates as a descriptive, rather than prescriptive, assessment of nationwide gang trends," Cleland said in a 14-page opinion last week. 
  
 The American Civil Liberties Union of Michigan filed a lawsuit on behalf of Juggalos and the group, claiming their constitutional rights to free speech and due process were violated by the report. 
  
 The FBI report labeled the Juggalos as a "loosely organized hybrid gang." It said those who identify as Juggalos have committed assaults and vandalism, and a "small number" of them have engaged in more serious crimes. There is no mention of them in the latest report. 
  
 The ACLU said it will appeal Cleland's decision. 
  
 "This is not the end. We'll keep fighting to clear the Juggalo family name," Insane Clown Posse member Joseph Bruce, known as Violent J, said in a statement released by the ACLU. 
  
 "While it is easy to fear what one does not understand, discrimination and bigotry against any group of people is just plain wrong and un-American," he said.

The Juggalos took on The Man, and The Man won, at least this round. A federal judge has rejected a lawsuit brought by Insane Clown Posse and the ACLU against the FBI over the official designation of the group's fans as gang members, reports mlive.com. The band argued that the 2011 designation has subjected Juggalos to extra scrutiny by police and is discriminatory. No dice, said US District Judge Robert Cleland, who ruled that the designation is "descriptive," not "prescriptive," and thus does not dictate any specific police response, reports AP. "This is not the end," said Insane Clown Posse member Joseph Bruce, known as Violent J. "We'll keep fighting to clear the Juggalo family name." He and fellow band member Joseph Utsler, aka Shaggy 2 Dope, along with four fans, today asked the 6th Circuit Court of Appeals to review the ruling, reports the Hollywood Reporter. "While it is easy to fear what one does not understand, discrimination and bigotry against any group of people is just plain wrong and un-American," said Bruce.
