I was working in Miami last week and saw this “style” all over Miami-Dade County, even in Homestead and had to laugh out loud several times at how idiotic these kids look. They could barely walk with their belts tied tightly around their legs below their butts to keep their pants from falling to their ankles. Some even appeared to be in their early twenties. But making a law to stop this silliness is the worst kind of tyrannical reaction. The sad part is that (so far) the on-line poll is indicating that 71% of the people voting support the idea.
What about shame? This crazy style can’t last too long. I think laughing at them is punishment enough with no need for police action. The police should be happy that these fellows can’t outrun them with their pants down to their knees.
