Yesterday, the Florida House of Representatives’ K-20 Education Innovation Subcommittee unanimously passed a legislative bill targeting sagging pants.
“This pro-family, pro-education, pro-jobs bill provides each school district … adopt a student dress code of conduct, a policy that explains to each student their responsibility,” said Rep. Hazelle Rogers, who introduced the bill. “This would make for a better school district and more productive students.”
The bill prohibits students from wearing clothing that “exposes the underwear or body parts in an indecent or vulgar manner.”
This is not the first time that sagging pants have become a legal issue. In 2008 Riveria Beach in Florida passed a by-law that said anyone caught with sagging pants would be subject to a $150 fine or community service, and habitual offenders faced the possibility of jail time. The law was later abolished when it was deemed unconstitutional, this came after a teenager spent a night in jail for wearing his pants too low.
….Money goes to someone else pocket….that’s $150 for that pimpin….
Yea because those tight ass faggot ass super skinny pantyhose looking jeans are better. They just wanna ban anything niggas started from the nineties. This country is getting worse and worse. Hurry up 2012 so this nightmare can end for everyone!!
Blacks in the 90,s did not start this you fucking moron…IT started in jail in the early 80’s because inmates were not allowed belts at the time… Dumb ass
@Anonymous: Preach.
yo florida is mad wack. its fashion. fags
Anybody who wears their pants as low as the guy in the picture deserves to go to jail anyway. I have no problem with this law.
sunglasses on a brick head should be illegal too. it causes discomfort for me to look at. is your nickname Brock or Bif?
LMAO!!!!! Cosign Eddie murphy
That’s just fucking terrible that shit is ridiculous all Governments are the same tryna control people “exposes the underwear or body parts in an indecent or vulgar manner” you know what that means they gotta ban tight queer jeans because it shows off a fags package or tight ass.
CUNTS I SAY CUNTS!
thank you i speak in agreement with most of you fellows on this page when i say skinny jeans are ten times more vulgar than sagging pants. fuck off. i cant wait til this generation that is still scared stiff by their fathers gets the fuck out of power and dies. you know the difference between our generations you old fucks, we weren’t scared to hit our fathers back. win or lose (mostly lose lol-its tough to try and beat yo’ daddy’s ass)
Yall need to stop! their is nothing VULGAR about how tight your pants are. But seeing undergarments IS. What niggas don’t get, is that it is a POINTLESS gesture. You actually IMPEDE yourself. Plus it stems for gay dudes in jail. If you can’t just pull them up, then you are a FAIL in life.
This is good! I mean what kinda idiot is walking like this???? This is not hiphop but dumbshit to wear you pants like this!!!
GOOD JOB! That ish is embarrassing! Who are you rebelling against if you do something that actually IMPEDES you while at the same time paying homage to gay men in jail (the ORIGIN of sagging your pants)? Now we SAG our pants, but wearing your pants BELOW your azz is NOT sagging. Thats GAY! If you are black and think this is racist, then you are a CASUALTY! You’re saying that we CAN’T do any better.
man that saggin/baggy shit played out
loose fit straight leg levis allday
GOOD JOB! That ish is embarrassing! Who are you rebelling against if you do something that actually IMPEDES you while at the same time paying homage to gay men in jail (the ORIGIN of sagging your pants)?

I don’t mind if a guy is walkin’ around with no shirt when he has abs for it but the sagging pants thing don’t look good to me. The waist of the undershorts, maybe, but not all the way down, only gays like that stuff, one said so on this jailhouse show ‘behind bars’ or something like that. He said, “oh they think its cool to come in here (jail) with their pants saggin’ but we love to see that shhh.” You can’t run from the police when your pants are droppin off and then you get arrested and go to jail only for some diva gay man to be watchin what you got in your saggin’ pants you still tryin’ to pull up every two seconds, you just made yourself and easy target.
spend those government dollars on something important….like catching criminals
This is the gayest photo of a “thug” I have ever seen. The sad thing is that young niggas actually think this is “hard.”
cant people see we losing our rights little by little first ny with that smoking law now this bs. its all an excuse just trying to bad about our god giving rights i bet you half of them dont care about thems kids future all they hate is sagging pants and loud rap music
Since when did God give a shit about people sagging their pants? The kids in this country today are retarded as fuck.
the fact that they gotta pass a LAW to mae kids stop dressing like assholes says alot.
It says a lot about the sorry ass parents who allow their kids to dress like that. I don’t wear tight jeans…I think a post on here already said it…”Straight leg loose fit Levi’s is all you need”…
This doesnt matter to most people these days…dudes are wearing tight ass girl pants now
thats the dumbest thing ive ever heard why do they waste time on stupid stuff like that when we way more important things we need to take care of in this nation shows you how ignorant and numb the people we have passing bills in this country are stop wasting are money on this crap
waste some more money you dumb tards
I would love to see a dog get behind these clowns who wear their jeans/pants like that…or have to put them hands up to fight…That shit would be a sight….LOL…
Cool, I live in Florida and I don’t wanna see dude walking around with their asses hanging out. That is the gayest shit ever.
waste of time on the law…but come on homie your dick is out…hate it when people embrace a stereotype and think its cool
They should ban fat cunts with little beards too.
So with it comes that women can’t wear skimpy clothes neither?
How Is Someone Gonna Tell You How To Dress And Wear Your Clothes?
Who The Fuck Cares…?
Next Their Gonna Outlaw walking Barefooted Cuz No One Wants To See Your Nasty Feet…
Instead Of Outlawing Dumb Shit Why Not Do Something Good For That Makes Fucking Since.
People Can Walk Around In A Fuckin Speedo But I Cant Wear My Pants Baggy… Sounds Like A Doubled Standard.
And Some Straight Up Communist Shit…
Fuck All These Dumbass Law Makers That Are Just Old And Bitter Towards Everything.
We Have Freedom Of Owning Guns But You Cant Sagg Your Pants Or Dress However We Want. Shits Fucking Rediculous. I Mean We Have Dudes Dressed Like Women That doesnt mean we should outlaw everything we think is wrong to us…….
ITS A FREE FUCKING COUNTRY AND SHOULD STAY THAT WAY.
lmfao….wow…reallyy?
Passing a law to try to get people to pull their pants up is silly…on the other hand, walkin around with your ass poppin out of your jeans is silly, messy, immature, lewd, hilarious, and flamboyantly homo-erotic. I’ve heard all of the stories of how saggin pants originated, I don’t need anyone giving me a history lesson; it’s wack, and it needs to be permanently retired. I’m not into skinny jeans either, but atleast they cover your ass, crotch, and nasty, bunched up boxers.
Kind of ironic that the most homosexual dress style is associated with the most homophobic genre of music.
DATS GOOD NEWS. ALL THEM NIGGAZ ZAGGING THEIR PANTS LOOK LIKE COMPLETE DOUCHEBAGS. HOWEVER, THERES ALOT OF BUTT HUGGIN JEAN WEARING NIGGAZ THESE DAYS SO ITS NOT MUCH OF A IMPACT. WHAT THEY SHOULD ALSO BAN IS FAKE NIGGAZ CUS THERES MANY OF THEM OUT THERE WHO FALSIFY THEIR LIFESTYLE. TAKE OFF THAT FAKE JESUS PIECE MADE IN CHINA AND THEM CHINESE JORDANS WOULD YA?!?!?!
because we all know that legislators pants only sag in the front….. when they getting blown
all others sag in the back…… cuz they ready to get f*cked
na, what aggravates me is that they actally wasted time and money even discussing legislature on “sagging” pants. orlando and miami both have 2 of the highest murder rates in the country, yet the government is worried about sagging
I personally don’t see a problem with sagging pants. I myself sag my pants slightly. It’s not about appearance, it’s about comfort; I don’t want my ball-sack getting crushed… Is that a crime?
waste of time but in philly that style has been out for many years.
First of all who the fuck sags anymore? Second make the kids wear uniforms to school that’s a REAL solution that doesn’t infringe on a persons personal time and freedoms.
Next it’ll be cornrolls, backward caps, tats, rap music period.
It’s one thing to wear loose-fitting/baggy pants and it’s another thing to have your pants falling off your ass and lookin like a douchebag. I’m in favor of this law, but there should also have a law against the skinnyjean-wearing assholes out there.
Ban skinny jeans next!
LOL “Pro-Education Pro-Jobs Bill”
What the fuck has that got to do with anything? Florida is fast becoming the new Texas.
who the fuck cares, honestly. i sag my pants a bit, but i deffinetly do think its fucken ridiculous when it gets too low, but i really dont get why there spending days debating this shit, and to actually make a law against it is fucken dumb
They should come out with a law that says you cannot wear skinny jeans and sag with a extra medium shirt and a fohawk.
lol with all the problems going on and this is what they are worried about in florida…smh, no wonder nothing gets done. Honestly who gives a fuck if some moron wants to wear his pants by his knees. Id rather see a ban against skinny jeans
dude in the picture should be locked up ! that’s some gay shit .
All the more easy to pull down those boxer shorts and start slobbing that knob!
yeahh
Ban sagging every where that’s some gay. Shit grow up!!
GLAD I LIVE IN CANADA, WHERE U CAN SAG UR PANTS FREELY!! AMERICA IS FUCKED, TSA TRYIN TO RUB ALL ON MY BODY N SHIT, NOW I TAKE DIRECT FLIGHTS TO OTHER COUNTRIES, NO STOPPING IN THE STATES!!
ahahaha i can dig that shit
I hear that, I try to avoid traveling through the U.S, cuz of the TSA Gestappos
I think it’s a good idea. Just because this is a ‘free’ country doesn’t mean it’s okay for everyone to be as ignorant as possible. I used to think this was fucked up, until they started making school kids in NY wear uniforms, and it really made a difference. Not only in the way the kids act but also in the way the kids are treated. It looks so much better to see kids waiting for the bus in slacks and shirts than pants hanging off their ass with their dirty draws showin’ and hoodies and shit. At some point, this young generation of kids has to learn some kind of civility. The Hip-Hop culture can’t govern the Hip-Hop generation anymore ’cause HIP-HOP IS DEAD. So now, the government is gonna fill that void.
They should band the saggy pants from public
wear.
This is da STUPIDEST SHIT I EVER HEARD
Hahaha land of tha free at its best again. Shiiiieeeet, like that dude from the wire would have said.
This is some other funny laws the us got that i found on the net. I havent double checked it but its too stupid not to be true, just like this you cant wear your pants like you want to law.
Alaska
Fairbanks: No moose is allowed to have sex on city streets.
California
Blythe: A person must own at least two cows before he is permitted to wear cowboy boots in public.
Hollywood: It is illegal to drive more than 2000 sheep down Hollywood Bouleward simultanously.
L.A.: A man can legally beat his wife with a leather strap, as long as it is less than two inches wide, or she gives him permission to use a wider strap, preferably in advance.
Ventura County: Cats and dogs are not allowed to have sex without a permit.
Connecticut
Hartford: Illegal to educate dogs.
Florida
You’re not allowed to break more than three dishes a day, or chip the edge off more than four cups and/or saucers.
A special law prohibits unmarried women from parachuting on Sunday or she shall risk arrest, fine, and/or jailing.
Having sexual relations with a porcupine is illegal.
When having sex, only the missionary position is legal.
And so it goes on and on way beyond even belivable (if even this was?). Google and find out for yourselfs how completely laughable shit is.
GOAT nation of the world hahahahaha
They should ban this shit everywhere. Along with XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXL shirts on a dude who wears a medium at best. I really do not understand why people want to wear clothes that are so large they could fit they whole family in them. You do not look good, or thug, you look like a complete idiot and you become the butt of jokes as people drive/walk by. I live in Charlotte and see it all the time, dudes walking down the street holding their nuts just so they jeans dont fall…moving at snails pace. Keep it real homie?
LOL so true!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
G shit…. I live in Orlando and Ive seen 3 grown ass men getting arrested for this shit already…. At the fucking movies…. With their children there….. Fuck this… They take it to serious.,,, this is not cool. Sorry not everybody a fucking hype faggot with skinny jeans n a boyfriend
