But how will we see the stupid coming?

Are we about to have to add a WTF is wrong with Louisiana tag, too?

A Lafayette lawmaker is reviving a failed bill that would make it illegal for people to wear low-riding pants that expose underwear.

Democratic Rep. Rickey Hardy has proposed the bill for the legislative session that begins later this month. The measure would outlaw sagging pants or any other clothing style that "intentionally exposes undergarments" or more.

Violators would be fined up to $500 for a first offense and ordered to perform 40 hours of community service.

Although not mentioned in this article, the local news broadcast today said that you could face jailtime by your third offense.

The biggest problem I'm having with this is I don't know which joke to go with.  Do I go for a stupid fashion police dig?  Go for the, But if we make'em put on normal pants, we won't know who to profile as dumb gangsta kids?  Plus, think of all the whores and their thongs - Britney Spears won't be able to come back to her hometown!  Sadly, this has all ready made it to law form in a few Cajun towns here in the bayou.  A few others shot it down, and, of course, the state shot it down 2 years ago.

If at first you don't succeed, fail, fail again!
