I've decided to keep up with this blog. So let's go.
I am returning to reading the news and what greeted me let me know why I stopped. There is a new law in Flint, MI. If your jeans are sagging then you get a ticket. Cops are coming down on that law. I find this to be a waste of time and an infringement on the personal rights of dumbasses who decide to wear their jeans below the waist. This resulted in a lengthy discussion with my sister who finds the style offensive and believes booty shorts should also be banned ( I think they are in Flint as well). She actually makes valid old school points about it being disrespectful to themselves and to everyone that sees them on the street. If I see your ass hanging out, I'm going to laugh and call my friends. I understand her point and I do feel that this generation (my generation?) isn't as respectful and mindful of our elders as we used to be. I almost got a kid at my church yesterday. I'm not your mama but you ain't bout to be rude to me.
In any case, my pastor (older black man) was against this Flint law and spoke out but no one joined him. I have a feeling that the family will have this debate over the next dinner and much like the Gay Marriage issue, I will be all alone.
Here is the article when you click these words
Personally, I believe that there are bigger issues and pulling up your pants doesn't always mean you'll straighten out your life.
