Underwear Police? Virginians May Be Fined For Low-Cut Pants
People Would Face $50 Fine

I hear that people wear droopy drawers around Buffworks.

Quote:
RICHMOND, Va. -- A Norfolk, Va., legislator says the droopy-drawers bill may be his legacy.

The Virginia House of Delegates has tentatively approved a bill to crack down on people who wear low-riding pants.

Freshman Norfolk Delegate Algie Howell Jr. introduced the bill at the urging of constituents who are offended by the exposed underwear.

Howell said, "That's why they're called undergarments. They're supposed to be worn under something else."

Delegates approved a measure that would allow police to assess a $50 fine on anyone who exposes their below-waist underpants in a "lewd or indecent manner."

Howell said that since he introduced it last month, he's been deluged with calls and e-mails about the issue, mostly positive.

Howell told The Virginian-Pilot that he kept hearing from customers in his barber shop that something needed to be done about young people who wear their pants around their knees, exposing their underwear.

When a House subcommittee took up the matter, the response was sympathetic yet skeptical because of legal issues.

It's going to the House floor for a vote.

Thumbs down

I don't suppose he could change the bill just to include guys and fat chicks.

I see nothing wrong with hot chicks exposing their underwear in a lewd and indecent manner.

Guess I will have another reason to leave Virginia for somewhere better (Arizona or Texas being my current states of choice).

Edited for spelling!!!

I'll be, it passed. The Daily Press ran a series of articles about sex related legislation pending in the Commonwealth and this one was in it. No way did I think it would pass.

Luckily, the droopy drawers around buffworks are from the head guy being funny shaped rather than some weak attempt to be cool.

How is this enforcable? Is there some kind of rule in the law which states that 'no underwear will be shown at any time'? Will there now be lowride underwear to get around this?

talking with some people at work, it seems you could get a fine if your pants are too low, but none if you wear nothing but the underpants
