Quote From: annieruck1This is dead in the water, Why? Because even though this dress style is worn by whites, blacks, hispanics etc.. because the authorities want to try to protect the american public, it gets turned into a racial issue. The contention will be that all the other people stole thier clothing idea and because of it, it gives them a "license" to profile.. That the "man" is opressing them once more with One more thing to add to thier list.
Poppy cock!!!!!! as a White, working class FEMALE, I am 2x more likely to be discriminated against in this country. I am of Scotch/Irish decent and cannot take pride in my heritage, If I do I am thrown in with biggots and idiotic hood wearing fools, and am called a racist for doing so. The Double standard has got to go. Trying to be fair across the board is being thrown out the window, because a select few want to feel persecuted as their ancesters were so that they can preserve the special treeatment they so often get in this country for throwing out the race card. Its rediculous! Wake up.
Well, ma'am, I'm afraid you failed to convey your feelings toward the actuall debate about baggy pants, here, but since you mentioned protecting the American public, and called out the people wearing baggy pants as biggots, and "idiotic hood wearing fools" [a.k.a. "hoodlums" =P.] I'm going to go out on a limb here and asume you think the government should stop peope from whereing baggy pants. Forgive me if I misinturpreted you.
Now, I agree with the fact that this is most definetly not a racial issue. Blacks, whites, hispanics, asians, indians, and just about every mix of the lot have some one who shares there race whom, simultainiously, wore baggy pants. I also agree with the fact that double standarts are proposterous! Either everyone an do it, or no one can. That's how it should work. But, hey, If you don't like double standarts, you shouldn't say it's bad for us to wear pants revealing our boxers, but it's okay or you to wear things like tubetops, or really skimpy dresses. Dx. Women reveal more than just their underwhere many times through shirts that are blatantly either too tight or cut too low. Why would anyone consider it indecent exposure if a man wears jeans that are bellow his buttox, revealing boxer shorts, but is not the case when women do the very same, only with there undergarments? That's a bit hipocritical on your part, aint it?
We don't need thegovernment to step in and tell us how to dress. Can't we handle that ourselves? If someone is sagging, can't you look the othe way? When does personal resposibility become an issue? Who defines what's decent and what's not? We shoud be careful of what we let the goverment have control over. Haven't we given up enough of our civil liberties already? Listen, I don't take part in this fad, but people- it's just a fad. It was bound to be in style for a few years, and sooner or later, it'l stop. That's the nature of these types of things. Just leave it alone.
