American academic, Paul Carlos, recently beclowned himself by claiming, in effect, that nations that sought to defend themselves from terrorist attacks by killing those responsible for planning the attacks or building weapons for the attacks, including nuclear weapons, were guilty of murder. He needed serious declowning to overcome this statement. With the help of negative publicity and online lashings he was able to declown himself. Or simply, "Come on Mofo. Don't make me come up there and declown your ass."
