prohibits students from exposing “underwear or body parts in an indecent manner that disrupts the learning environment.”A law for this? Really?
OK, I'm guilty of poking fun at the way kids dress, and think saggy pants are silly. I also think sweatpants and Uggs look bad on a girl (or guy, for that matter). But in my day, we wore blue jeans with all kinds of holes in them -- the more holes you had, the cooler they were. How dumb was that?
This is just another case of picking on what is thought of as "thugs." Guys who were saggy pants are stereotyped, and now we're bullying them with laws.
The best part of this actually was Tennessee Gov. Bill Haslam taking the media to task for focusing on some of these silly laws instead of more "substantive" issues. But if it's worthy of spending time debating a passing a law, isn't it substantive.
The GOP is the Great Wizard of TN....pay no attention to the man behind the green curtain.
