Look at the picture again! Idiots! Anyone who doesn’t have a problem with people(yes, mostly black people)walking around like this need to ask themselves why. Look at the picture again! Idiots!

Baggy pants?...get a life. Your wardrobe is probably as limited as your ability to argue a point. Baggy pants?…get a life.

And YES, most of the dopes with the sagging pants and unwashed boxers are BLACK! Yup I dun said it. The few misguided whites that have adopted this dresscode are from the trailer park and need to be slapped. My wife and I like to call them BOBBLE HEADS. If you watch them walk down the street you will see them bobble as they try to walk when their pants start to fall. Kudos to anyone that can legislate this stupid trend out of our Country. If hot girls can't wear THONGS on the beach, gangster wannabee's shouldn't be allowed this crap. I guess the cops like the sagging pants, makes it harder for them to run! :) I think it’s called gang’sta wear and I think it’s retarded looking.

Here, the vast majority of "kids /young people", "male AND female", "MULIT-racial" young'ns are walking around with one hand on the cellphone, and the other usually holding the pants up. I'm 50 something, and my youth wore hip hugging bellbottoms and torn jeans and toobig bib overalls, and tiedye stirts and we were obnoxious too. We all made our statement, we all did OUR OWN THING, (just like everyone else). Every generation does it. I personally think it looks just silly to walk around grabbing your pants every minute or two to keep them froom falling down. Just like my Pop thought we looked funny wearing bellbottoms that were long enough for someone half a foot taller than us. One difference I see, is that the origins of todays droopy pants is a thug thing. Coming from inmate wear that had no belts and hung low due to gravity. Young people seem to want to emulate power images, and thugs from prisons seem to be a powerful image for them. So they wear them low to look tough. It's hard not to make this sound racial, but I'll bet you that if you ask the average white kid why he's doing it,....he's clueless. He just looks stooopit. I see young people all the time talking like they have a third grade education, and come from the ghetto. Perhaps some do. BUT the point is, everyone wants to be taken seriously,and you can't do that when you embarrass yourself. Walk like you respect yourself, talk like you respect yourself, act like you respect yourself. Respect yourself and others will respect you. Colin Powell doesn't walk with a swagger in his step, his pants don't hang off his hips, and he speaks like a citizen of the world at large. Not white, not black, not even American, he speaks like a worldly, educated, respectful person,.....PERIOD. As you said, "I got stuff to complain about" too.
