Saggers are always causing problems. My city's population is 50% saggers. I just wish those lazy saggers would stop doing drugs and knocking up their bitches. I know how we could fix the problem too.ColCarnage wrote:

Nope, I say we start with responsible parenting. I say we take account of our actions and our choices on a personal level. How about we just start there and see where society goes? Those that do stand a good chance of a quality life, those that do not, well, shall reap their rewards as well.Narupug wrote:

Give it a rest will you, the way people dress is protected by the by the First Amendment. There are some exceptions to the rule such as schools, racist or discriminatory clothing, Defamation, Fighting Words, Incitement of Crime, or my favorite Establishment of Religion.
This choice is the will of the people, however
It is the decline of morality in our society that I speak of, what we are doing to ourselves, the govt. has nothing to do with it. Our personal choices and what we are will to accept or not is what defines our society. As it is it is falling not rising.
Would you not agree?

Also, I am still waiting on my lesson regarding the right that protects me from being offended. You still have not addressed this in the lesson you were going to teach me.

Organized crime recruits because of the promise of easy money.
although that might help a little I do not agree
I kinda agree with lowing
In DC at least, kids who wear saggy/ratty clothing are usually boisterous, loud and stupid
Kids who dress normally aren't
Seriously, just come to DC's Chinatown some time. The folks who dress in saggy pants (or any other 'counterculture' fashion really) are usually the ones acting like idiots in public. Yelling, fighting, just being stupid. The folks who dress normally (and please don't try turning this into a thing of race; this applies to any and all), well, act normally.

I would agree that you can't legislate morality. Parenting is a large part of the problem. So is a lack of education.lowing wrote:

Aussie, where are ya? I guess you are still digging through the Bill of Rights finding my right to not be offended.
Yes I would hire a sagger lowing ...lowing wrote:
No I do not pay for sagging directly, of course not, and for you all to not see beyond the words to what actually does happen and what the tax payers do pay for, is a complete lack of denial on your part.
Let me ask you all something, lets say you owned a business, ( that wasn't a tattoo parlor or a urban clothing store), would you hire someone who dressed like a sagger or someone full of face piercings to represent you and your company? If you say yes it does not matter, you are liar, if you say no, now you know what the problem is and why the taxpayers eventually support this life style.
But as much as his identity is sagging he can do that as much as he likes when he's not working for me ... we have a set of rules at work when it comes to clothing and as long as he is willing to follow them just as anyone else he could get a job working for me ...

Yup, I do not want to legislate morality, rather to self govern in a more contrustive and positive way. I choose to, apparently so do you. We should reap the rewards of our efforts. Those that chose otherwise, should like wise reap the rewards of their efforts and no one elses.Turquoise wrote:

I see, so if a sagger comes in, SAGGING, you will hire him. I promise I will not bother buying stock in your company as it will not be around long enough to make me any money.Varegg wrote:

If you do not have a problem with it, why not let him do it at work if it is acceptable dress and behavior for you?

Organized Crime eg Gangs has to do with it in that the image is associated with them with them. I was reffering to the parenting not the the personal responsibility which I ignored because it is obviously neccessary. I don't ge how we got to taking responsibility for your actions on a personal level from sagging, but maybe I'm just tired.

Hmmmmm, my kids have a choice between "big money" in gangs, and a responsible existence, yet they are choosing a legit existence, and oyu think I as a parent have nothing to do with that? Yup, you just might be part of the problem

and I do not believe that. Good parenting doesn't fix anything. good parenting is a preventative.

Most work places have some kind of dress code ... and atleast my company doesn't hire people right off the street, we have an application process with a written part and later we have interviews ...
So your scenario with a sagger coming in sagging asking for work simply doesn't happen, and as mentioned before if he choses to sag on his own spare time that's okay with me ... when representing the company it's not okay unless I was running a business were dress code doesn't matter ...
