And it wasn't even in USA Today.
Droopy drawers laws are back again, this time in Flint, Michigan. Apparently cops have nothing better to do in that city than inspect waistlines for fashion faux-pas. (I have been following this pathetic trend since legislation was introduced in Virginia to criminalize saggy pants in 2005. Sigh.) But here's the good news: the droopy drawers crack down - pun somewhat intended - led to this great graphic in the Detroit Free Press:
Left:A Class C offense, exposing a portion of the undergarment but no skin, will result in a warning.
Center: A Class B offense involves a sag below the gluteal curve, but one that similarly exposes only the undergarment.
Right:Class A violations are those in which the sag of pants and/or undergarment results in any exposure of the rear cleavage.
Both the latter offenses could result in a year in jail. Good Lord!
Grateful hat tip to Lowering the Bar.
