BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) - A Baton Rouge Metro Council member wants
the parish to boost a public awareness campaign against men who
wear their pants so low that their boxer shorts show.
Councilwoman C. Denise Marcelle has a slogan for the campaign:
"Low pants, no chance."
The Advocate reports that her resolution is up for discussion on
Wednesday's agenda.
Councilman Rodney "Smokie" Bourgeois and Councilwomen Donna
Collins-Lewis and Ronnie Edwards say they support Mercelle's
proposal.
However, Councilman Scott Wilson questions whether young people
would pay any attention to the campaign. He also says proper dress
is something that should be dealt with at home, rather than by the
council.
