Saggy pants laws----WRONG!

[VileZambonie]

So a new neighbor moves in down the street, you see him getting the mail, he has his baggy pants on and his cap sideways. He listens to rap with the loudness booming. You go over to his house to tell him to shut his crappy music off and pull his pants up and to call him a thug right to his punk face when you realize the crappy music is coming from his truck while his boxers are showing as he's leaning over the fender of his 73 Chevy Blazer giving it a tune up. Maybe that's when you realize this is just a person much like you but just doesn't look like you or act like you. When you were a teen did your momma dress you? Did everyone approve of what you looked like/dressed like? If everyone acted the same and looked the same we'd be in Hitler's dream world.

I call the cops and they cite him for noise level violations (Community standards set in law) and indecent exposure (Community standards set in law).  
That is what the law is for, to protect the quality of life the community has. If he wants to wear his pants around his knees, and show off his  in boxers, he can live elsewhere.  That is what EVERY community has the RIGHT to do.....



Doesn't matter if he's white, black or purple. It has to do with the fact I have a right to participate in a community where standards are set, and where a lifestyle of MY choosing is supported in law.

I guess you'd find it OK to let a person live next to you that walked [edited for language, you guys know better -admin] he has the right to free speech and freedom to express himself..  I bet in that case you'd have an issue as it goes against YOUR standards....

Yeah, because someone wearing saggy pants is the same as someone verbally assaulting a child

i know what he was trying to say.  If one is for not passing laws and limiting 'freedom' for scumbags because they aren't like 'us', then not passing laws against cursing in public and freedom of speech and such can easily cause the migration to cursing at children since no laws will be there limiting that activity.
But, there are catch-all laws on the books like disorderly or harrassment or public nuissance, whatever.  Whether it holds up in court or not is a different matter.  There could also be protective (restraining) orders against those individuals and the judge will enforce that.

Regardless of all this, this is America.  This is a land made of different people.  This is land founded on liberty.  With liberty comes responsibilities. It's just some are less responsible than others because everyone is different. Some like to express their differences in many ways.

It's frustrating that the age old rule of survival of the fittest no longer exists.  Everyone exists no matter what now, whether they deserve to or not and pass their genes on to even more ignorant generations in the future. Gotta take the good with the bad.  It sure would be nice to be able to do something about this, but, the days of the wild west is over.

This is getting out of hand.  Drop the subject and let's get back to trucks.  Someone should have reported this.....   

LOCKED, don't start another thread...
