Georgia mayor to sign baggy pants ban (baggy skirts too, oh my)
http://www.cnn.com/2010/CRIME/09/07/georgia.baggy.pants...
The mayor of Dublin, Georgia, is expected to sign an ordinance Tuesday that prohibits the wearing of saggy pants. Violators face fines up to $200.
-snip-
It bans the wearing of pants or skirts "more than three inches below the top of the hips exposing the skin or undergarments."
"We've gotten several complaints from citizens saying the folks with britches down below their buttocks was offensive, and wasn't there something we could do about it," Best said.
-snip-
Dublin is not alone in its pull-up-the-pants campaign. Riviera Beach, Florida, and Flint, Michigan, passed bans against sagging pants in recent years, but the Riviera Beach legislation later was declared unconstitutional after a court challenge.
-snip-
--------------------
they got 'several complaints'. no, really, they did.

1. What are they going to do when the repairman shows up?
Will they wait until after Mr. Asscrack fixes the damned thing before they call the cops on him, or will they sacrifice expedience to propriety and call them first to monitor his arse when he stoops down?
Does that turn you on, warpy?

No, it isn't. There are just as many white punks doing this as there are blacks.

9. many people just don't understand
the hatred and spite that old geezer rednecks feel when they see a couple AA youths walking down the street with low rise pants, baseball hats and a Jersey on... it's like an allergy.
AA = Affirmative Action? That's racist to call them that.

Everything is racist. Wouldn't it be exhausting going through life like that? I'll tell you what will put a stop to these draggy drawers. Everybody who's a dad wear them for just one day. You'll never see them again.

How utterly stupid is that. You have to walk, holding your pants up. I swear, I wish I had a big ole loud air horn, and something else, so when I saw those jack asses, I would blow it, and they would take off running, then their pants would slide down, and they would trip and fall. That would be pretty cool.

I just laugh at them..eventually they will get how stupid they look.

Those people in Georgia = :racist: lol ::)
Whites and blacks both wear their pants like this. It makes them look "gangsta"!!! I look at them a laugh to myself right in thier face actually, when I see stuff like that.

Actually .... it makes them look gay (or a 'punk' in prison terminology). They don't realize it and you can't convince them of it but this all started in the prisons. The 'punks' would wear their pants low like that to let the other convicts know they were 'available'.

You are correct. I knew about that. I wasn't sure if that was the reason or if the reason was, they got handed whatever clothes they had and had to make due with it.
-
Actually, there are probably more white kids walking around with their pants falling down than black, since blacks only make up ten percent of the population at best.

He's racist and wants to stop the young white boys from doing that.

Keep it in the hood huh? :lmao:
His day job is as a Middle School teacher. He'd as D as can be. My opinion is that the day job is what's motivating him on this subject. I could be wrong though.

And you know this how? :-)
I like the news articles where the cops are chasing some punk with his pants like that and then the pants fall down while they are running and they fall and bust their ass and the cops catch them.

Heh. I had to pay regular price but one just like her went on sale not a week later. I KNEW I should have waited!

You know, it always seems to work out that way, doesn't it?

I always tell 'em to "Pull your damn pants up stooooopid! Ya look like ya can't afford to buy clothes that fit!"
They never do. Just look at me like an overbearing parent. Too bad there isn't one in their lives! My kid ever do that, and I'd slap 'im up side the head!
Biggest thing wrong in the country right now is parents have taken a back seat!

Goldurnit! You let the secret out. Moles working for law enforcement have encouraged the LED sneakers fad (failed), firing handguns sideways (people who can't hit anything 'cept by chance become worse shots), and oversize baggy pants that fall down, making suspects easier to catch.
Don't be telling secrets...
(do I really need a sarcasm tag here?)

How very true man. Very true.
Discipline has gone out the window, unfortunately.
