Sagging Pants Now A Criminal Offense
The police chief of Flint, Michigan decided he’d had enough of the fashion style known as “sagging”. If you haven’t guessed by now, it’s when you wear your pants really, really low below your waistline. Or even lower, at your knees maybe. Not really a functional look; it’s got to be difficult to walk like that -but it is popular.
Police officers can now arrest anyone in Flint that wears sagging pants, slapping them with up to a $500 fine and a year in jail! They have also declared that the style gives probable cause for an officer to search you.
Thankfully the American Civil Liberties Union is stepping in to oppose this laughable law, that they say is racist and illegal.
