Here’s the thing about the great institution of Small Town Middle America: it can never just be, its always got to in a huff about something, positioning its white picket battlements against a perceived harbinger that supposedly threatens it’s very Small Town Middle Americanness. Music, Guatemalan immigrants, gay marriage – you name it, some small town somewhere is getting up a fight against it.
Down in Struthers, they’re spittin’ mad about sagging – at least that’s what the kids call it on the internets, really it’s just letting your butt hang out for all to see, damn rap music. Now what type of goofhead would want everyone to see his underwear? No one wants to see that, or at least that’s what the Mahoning County town’s safety-services director is trying to tell city council. Ed Wiles wants an ordinance on the books that says your pants have to be sensibly placed when you’re in the city building, according to the Vindicator.
To make his case, Wildes actually said this in a council meeting:

Well, I’ll say go for it, white kids looks extra stupid in sagging pants…
This display of showing your butt has been around for sometime. From what I was told it started in jails where guys would push their pants down and walk around to let other guys know that they are searching for a “hookup”. You know, some butt bumping. So I guess everyone who walks around like that wants to be butt f_cked!!!!
So what’s your point, Kyle? What did Safety Services Director Wiles say that isn’t sensible? Am I to assume that you’re okay with this lude practice because you or your children do it? I already assume that you must be a flamin’ leftist liberal since you’re so outraged by decent people being offended by such a mindless fashion trend. I, also, don’t care to see which underwear a dude is wearing that particular day. And I suspect this community is suddenly looking attractive to civilized people who agree with me!
Oh Edward Vullo, You are so very angry about some kids walking around with their underwear showing…You know how kids are? If they know a guy like you is offended they will just drop trou altogether for you..What then? Shoot them? They may just drive by and give you the old ‘pressed hams’ for your feedback. Did you grow up around here? You sound really stiff. Are you from a repubichair family? Do you hate us libtards? Guys like you are the most fun to moon, you know. I’m too old for that kind of thing unless I get too many Bud-Ices in me, then my old libtard ass is libel to do anything. I hope you don’t carry (pack) like so many of you repubichair, Heston wanna-bees are doing now. Sounds like you have too many mental issues to be packing any heat out in public. Just go to an OWS protest and fling some shit with the rest of us and relax..life’s too short to spend it so tight-assed.
@Edward, I just think we’ve got more pressing things to worry about than sagging . . . not sure how that’s partisan . . .
And, I’m sagging right now.
