Anti-Crack Bill

Most mornings, I have the news on as the kids are getting ready for school. Sorta half watching it, half keeping them on tasks, only partially paying attention to anything but the weather. But this caught my eye....

They are trying to pass a law here in Tennessee that it is illegal to 'sag' your pants. It would be a misdemeanor offense, that could have a fine of up to $1,000 and up to 160 hours of community service. Seriously! I just don't see how they can do this. I don't want to see some guy's ass hanging out of his jeans either. BUT, at the same time, it doesn't say anything about girl's wearing low rise jeans that show their crack when they sit either. So, isn't that discriminating against the men? Shouldn't it also say something about your pants not being large enough to cover your crack as well as just wearing them down too low?

Here are the links to some of the articles about this bill:
