With all the ills in society today, brave state rep Derrick Shepherd has struck a blow for all the suffering workers in the belt industry. He's introduced legislation banning low-slung pants because, apparently, the state house of representatives exists solely to advance his personal agenda...
"I'm sick of seeing it," said Shepherd, a first-term legislator. "The community's outraged. And if parents can't do their job, if parents can't regulate what their children wear, then there should be a law."
Aestheticallly, I sympathize, I really do. But come ON...
Oh, BTW, the fine would be $500. I'd hate to be the first officer to try to hand out THAT ticket...
