I must first say that I don't personally wear sagging pants. However, I believe that if I wanted to wear sagging pants, I should have the right to. Yes, it looks ignorant to me.However, this is a "slippery slope" of a situation. If we accept this law, what else is under the radar?
Do we then make laws against wearing "wave caps" a certain way?
Do we then put restrictions on how small or big one's clothes have to be?
(Some could argue that this is yet another way to target young black men for arrest or for police intimidation)
Imagine a law stating that women or men cannot wear shirts or pants more than two sizes too big or one size to small.
Would we then have "fashion police" measuring people and fining people for wearing a size 14 dress when they are really a size 10?
Ridiculous? Yes, it is. But, I think you get the point.
People should have the "right" to dress how they want to....regardless of how ignorant it looks. It is called personal expression. Once we allow the government to dictate how clothes should fit us, other personal expressions will start to be regulated as well.
What do you think?
