Let me start out by saying I think extremely low-rise jeans with g-strings hanging out the back are extremely tacky and in poor taste. Ditto with gang-banger looking pants with boxers sticking out.
That said, I think this is one of the most ridiculous wastes of taxpayer money I've ever heard.
When I first heard about this being presented to the Louisiana legislature a couple of weeks ago, I figured this guy would be laughed at. Now it appears this is actually going to the next level, having been approved by the Louisiana Criminal Justice Committee.
Passing laws that restrict what clothing people can wear is a violation of civil rights. Its downright scary to me that something like this is even being considered.
While their taste in clothing may be questionable, it is not obscene. These kids don't need some lawmaker telling them they can't wear what they want. What they need is some good old fashioned family values.
That or a visit from the Fab 5.
