baggy pants crackdown

[Trigg]

Thought this story was funny. I think the baggy pants look ridiculous and I think it's funny to watch them try to walk while holding on to the front of the pants so they don't fall down. But, seriously don't the cops have better things to do, or are they just looking for revenue??

Watched a car chase on FOX this afternoon. The guy jumped out of the car and was running away. Had to use one hand to hold his pants up. Funny stuff. Clown dressing is what I call it.

Retarded. Why does the government think they can govern what kind of pants people wear?

It's not indecent exposure. It's not a safety issue.

Sigh.

Apprehension by law enforcement is WAAAAYYYYY up due to these slick looking garments. When the young democrats try to run away ...they get caught! Where's the problem?

The way some of these guys dress should be a crime. I guess it would be like making a law for being stupid and advertising it.

Whoa. I really do not understand the desire to wear clothing like this and present youself like this. However I do believe it isn't something that law enforcement should be spending time on. This would be something for a community organizer to tackle.

Yes, that style of dress is for mental midgets.

As far as I know, its not a crime to be an idiot.
