Saggy pants law unconstitutional

[comemonday]

I, personally, think the look is ridiculous...

but the law against it, I think, is even more ridiculous. ..geeeez...there are bigger issues out there.

YUP and YUP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well said KK!!!!!

Agreed. I work at a university; I find myself staring and wondering how the hell they walk w/out their jeans falling down.... I mean, seriously, they're well below their butts!

meh....I don't mind. Good for a laugh. Makes it efficient to identify who to avoid and who not to be standing next to when they go off.

High school/ Junior High kids who do this would equal about 1% of 1% of people in this country if not less (like I said) . . . and I am in Boston right now thank you very much . . .

depends on which end of Boston you're in!!....i'd say the percentages are a lot higher here....sad but true!!

for the entire nation I bet my estimate is close . . . this is such a stupid issue that does not matter to over 99% of people - - - IMO. Of all the things to focus on, clothes are at the bottom of my list of important issues. They do not define who we are and what we are.

Then why are you here answering to this thread????

I was wondering the same thing. For the life of me I don't understand why people post in threads that are no interest to them. I often wonder if it's just to start trouble.

I obviously have much interest in this thread. What I don't have interest in is the clothes other people choose to wear. My interest lies in the fact that people actually feel the need for Constitutional Intervention over clothes when there are so many other issues that are actually important. They are just clothes. My exact quote above is "clothes are at the bottom of my list of important issues" and that I don't think "clothes define who are what we are" . . . it is amazing to me that people actually find this a "Constitutional" Related issue - that is where my interest lies and I thought that is what this thread is about.

that is what this thread is about I guess I was confused by your interest because of your initial post which read.

I can't think of anything more boring then talking about clothes. Like they matter . . . they don't.

My apologies for confusion as I thought you originally statement indicated you had no interest to begin with

Unfortunately there are at least 8 states that have either cities or counties that have enacted such a ban. I don't agree with a city or county telling someone what to wear however I do believe that a school does have the right to impose dress codes in it's classrooms. I also believe that an employer has the right to define what is acceptable to wear while at work.

Oh yeah . . . all that is fine. But when some one or many someones feel the need to enact constitutional intervention over what people wear I find that a bit much. Cloth and thread to keep us warm and covered should not have such power or influence.

Now that I know it annoys people, I'm going to do it.

I just threw up in my mouth a little - again

I hate seeing a guy wearing pants halfway down their butts. It's really stupid and makes them look like fools.

Now when the ladies wear their pants with half of their butts showing, that's another story...

Whale tail!

I think that guy was in my office today.........

I see that a few times a week.

And you know that they know..... there has to be at least a draft on their a$$.

I dont know if the pants falling off with the sideways hat walking like they have a limp is more obnoxious, or the guy who doesnt realize that crack kills...............


has anyone seen the Onion Movie??

[alaura1974]

ok, I know that it is rediculus to have a law against falling down pants......... but.......... did you know that in Alaska it is illegal to look at a Moose from an airplane??

So, if the worst we have is asking someone to pull up their obnoxious pants, then that isnt so bad!!!
