"DROOPY DRAWERS" IS NOT A CARTOON CHARACTER
A couple of thoughts.
1. Leaving aside whether you consider "droopy drawers" an inappropriate or obnoxious fashion statement, one has to ask how this legislation fits within the governmental "police power" (i.e., the power to pass laws for the general health, welfare, and protection of the population). I've got it: they expect it'll prevent kids from tripping and breaking their necks when their pants fall down.
2. I recognize that Virginia's racial makeup may be different than that of many states. But the baggy pants look has been embraced by the "white" culture as well, and I think it is ridiculous for opponents of the legislation to try to characterize this as a racist law as opposed to simply what it is: a stupid one.
