Brevard County wants to present itself as a “family-oriented community” and improve the way the city looks. To do this, a new ordinance has been approved … banning saggy pants!
This ordinance “prohibits any person in public view from wearing pants or skirts three inches below the top of the waistline, exposing undergarments or skin.”
This isn’t just to clean up the town; this ordinance is also to prevent stereotyping, because, according to the article, saggy pants may label you as a criminal. Who knew?
If you don’t want to pay the fine, which ranges from $25 to $100 per offense, you can choose community service instead.
Are you wondering how police officers will know which offenders deserve tickets, versus those who deserve a mere warning? Fear not – the officers are receiving pant patrol training.
Well, I cannot begin to tell you how relieved I am. It’s about time police officers took the time to learn how to properly patrol saggy pants.
What do you think? Banning sagging pants: Good idea or bad?
I'm all for the ban....can't stand it when you see lads walking around with their pants defying gravity, just look a total mess and uncomfortable. Not interested what brand of undies they are wearing !!
The knuckle dragging idiots who walk round with their pants heading south should be taken around the back for "re-education". A neck shot solves the problem within a millisecond !
Who, where, when???
