Well, that tears it, I have to run for political office now. My platform? I want to pass a law making it illegal for moronic politicians to introduce or attempt to pass stupid laws about things that belong in the public discourse, and have no business being regulated, law-ified, or otherwise tainted by the stinky hand of government interference.

I’m with you Rick.
I sometimes think that the biggest problem with politicians isn’t that they’re greedy or corrupt. Its that by the time they reach the upper tiers of the political food chain they’ve been telling other people what to do for so long that they’re completely convinced that the average person can’t live their lives properly unless there is a law or policy for every little thing.

There is dangerous thinking in his statement.
And if parents can’t do their job, if parents can’t regulate what their children wear, then there should be a law.
What he is saying, is that it is ultimately the goverment’s job to raise children, and that parents are only allowed to do it just so long as they don’t piss off a grouchy old Congressman.

I wear low pants! So arrest me why dont you? I think this is ridiculous and his children are probably made fun of since it seriously is the “thing” to do. I remember one time my sister saw a boy with low pants at the shopping center and she went up behind him and pulled them down to his ankles! If their that low...just pull them to were its acceptable.

My question is why are these politicians getting paid for this nonsense?!? They gripe about not being able to pay teachers, not being to build more homeless shelters, not being to do this and do that...Well then quit wasting our time and money to debate complete nonsense. Look the other way, and in given time the fad will go away.

You’re right. It isn’t the government’s job to legislate fashion trends.
Rob - 02:05pm on 05/10/2004
How could you possibly enforce a law that applys to everyone wearing a certain style? The government should worry about more importanat things than the fashion trend of 2004.

Doesn’t matter.

Low rider jeans are soooo hardkore (with a backwards “K"). I usually wear mine around my knees just to show off my boxers. Thats hornets. I will continue to do so when I visit Luisiana this summer. I plan on marching to town hall wearing nothing at all. And hot chicks should do the same. And when they are’t marching to town hall they should be wearing super low jeans. That would be cool.

I’m beginning to think that the people in gov’t have nothing better to do, so they come up with ridiculous things like banning low rise jeans. If you don’t like it look away. They are just making a fool of themselves by trying to control what teenagers and even many young adults wear. We are in a war at the moment and Louisiana is worried about seeing boy’s boxers and girl’s G-strings? This is the stupidest bill I’ve ever heard
