Pull Em' Up!!






The Government is getting a bit to comfortable with thier power! I've been hearing through the grape vine that law enforcement is going to start giving out tickets to dudes wearing baggy pants. Do you think the government should be allowed to keep someone from wearing something others may find offensive? Now I, myself is not a fan of a man with baggy pants on, but who the hell am I to say what they shouldnt wear. I cant stand ladies who have panty lines showing through thier pants but I have to deal with it or chunky girls wearing baby tee's LOL but hell I cant tell them to change. The argument with the issue is "indecent exposure" and "Is Hip Hop Responsible" The debate is gaining attention across the country: Should baggy pants be banned? Twelve states have taken action and created ordinances — some with $500 fines and jail time — Shit if Blacks never voted a day in thier lives they'll dam sure vote on no fines for baggy pants! LOL ... My personal opinion; I think they are unfairly targeting African-Americans because its a style worn mostly in the black community. Also Hip Hop shouldn't be the blame because this didnt start when hip hop came about this has been going on for forever! Hip Hop has major influence on the community but so does television shows and the actions that are going on in our enviornment. Issues from the war in Iraq, discontent with parenting, to people in the hood without heat. Why is Hip Hop always to blame? I believe that hip hop is an expression of thoughts and experiences. Let me know what you guys think!
