Here’s a liberal leaning page that pretty much describes the trend completely.

What’s missing, however, is any realization that this represents a pathology. This is just some fashion statement according the writer; whatever.

When someone first enters prison as an inmate, their belt, suspenders, and shoelaces are taken from them to prevent any “problems”. Often this requires the inmate to hold their pants up with one hand and walk with a shuffling gate because of their untied shoes.

“Seasoned” inmates know instantly who the n00bies are, and it is often a catalyst for “predatory” behavior, if you catch my drift.

Young men adopted the fashion to look as though they have done time, thinking it made them look tough or experienced. It seemed to say “I have street creds”, or some weird notion like that.

They seem to forget that it was the PREY that dressed like that, not the Predator.

Anyway...that is the legendary origin of the fashion, but most kids just think it looks cool, and have no idea what it means.

You screwed up by being outraged. You simply examine nutritional information on a can until the asshole’s head is turned and then bump into him, causing him to crash into the merchandise he’s stocking, and say, mmm scuze me.

Plumbers don’t serve food.

Absolutely correct, Plumbers always work with food after it's been served!

Caplock has it’s place sometimes you just have to get loud to MAKE A POINT. You are almost as bad as the spelling cops.

None of that compares to exposing one’s underwear and risking losing one’s trousers.

Actually, the examples you cite—I remember them—and they were cool and distinctive.

But the 50s greasers weren’t making a mockery of their own clothing by wearing in the style of a mentally retarded person.

Whereas, some teen styles are cool or rebellious, these kids are just looking like degenerates.

Let's see....
They cant’ talk without sounding like complete fools.
They can't spell, read or write.
They can't do any but the simplest arithmetic.
They can't stay sober.
They don't know how to dress like decent human beings.
They can't solve any problems without violence.
They don't ever tip a waiter or waitress because they have never learned even the simplest form of class.
They have no sense of common courtesy to others.

So what's not to like?

Pathology—I like that term describing this.

I was amazed at much of the Baltimore riot footage. Most of the active rioters had the pants up.

Even the stupid eventually learn that you can't run fast with your pants around your ankles.

Man, that’s strange.

I visit a prison once a month for church services—they evidently don’t allow that here.

It started as glorification of Prison status. Prisoners don’t get belts lest they hang themselves or use them as whips or to strangle guards or other prisoners. It has become like dreadlocks, a statement that one is useless to society and society best get used to it.

“Sagging pants is the new long hair...”

LOL!

Sagging pants is a prison sex thing. Long hair was just ... long hair.

It’s hard to run with your pants down around your knees, which is where they will be if you run.

Hopefully you didn’t eat the food he served you and you demanded your money back from the managers.

That gets their attention and could have gotten that dumbass fool fired. Which he deserves.

Prison status.

I guess every form of refuge has its price.

I believe there is a hierarchy in prison—I confess I do not know what it might be.

No. Not so much.

You are almost as bad as the spelling cops.

Write like a retard and I'll jump on that too.

It's a gangster thing. In prison inmates aren't allowed belts for obvious reasons, (suicide, homicide, etc.) and their pants fall down.

I thought they were just advertising their availability.

no, I didnt pay for the food, I left it at the customer service area and told them I wouldn’t eat it or pay for it. She understood
