Exactly. While seeing a young man's pants practically at his knees makes me want to beat him with my belt then make him wear it, to make it illegal is going overboard. The land of the free can't make you pay because your pants are sitting too many inches below your waist. That's just too much. And as far as racial profiling, I can't really speak on that. I'm from an extremely diverse area, so this is not something associated with Black teens to me--all boys wear their pants like this, no matter what they are. *shrug* But I can see how it can be construed as a racial attack (and rightfully so) in a not-so-diverse place like Atlanta, so I'll let others debate it out.
