Memo to Britney: Lose the low-slungs La. lawmakers weigh banning belly-baring, bottom-peeking pants
By Bethany Thomas Reporter NBC News Updated: 8:22 a.m. ET May 13, 2004
DALLAS - Memo to Britney Spears: Make sure to forget those low-rise jeans next time you fly home to Louisiana.
And Ludacris, why don’t you pull up your pants and cinch them with a belt before you take the stage in Baton Rouge.
Otherwise, you might both get a ticket.
That’s what the Louisiana House Criminal Justice Committee approved last week. The new proposed bill would crack down on anyone who wears low-slinging, pants-sagging, belly-baring, underwear-peeking pants. It faces the full State House sometime within the next two months.

Well, that's the Louisiana legislature at work!!!
I think this is plain dumb.
As if trying to legislate morality wasn't hard enough...

They've gone about this all wrong. They should have banned Brittany from the state.
To: El Conservador
It's going to be hard as hell to find a plumber in Louisiana after this goes into effect.

Legislating good taste, of which Brittney and her ilk have none.

You see, if we still had the "privileges and immunities" clause, state laws like this might well be unconstitutional.
Come to think of it, the Slaughterhouse Cases which gutted that clause originated from Louisiana too.

hip-hugger pants - BAD
casinos at every corner - GOOD
pot holes on every street - GOOD
corrupt polititians - GOOD
lowest ranking state in every positive category - GOOD
highest ranking state in every negative category - GOOD
Just keep those hip-huggers away and don't spill my gumbo and can of budweiser.

Two bits says the legislators behind this have teenie-bopper daughters and can't get them to stop wearing low-rise jeans. So they want to pass a law. Funny!@

This gives Britney an excuse to cover up the new Tats with the Typos in them.
How can anyone that stupid live?
