Louisiana's war on ass cracks continues unabated

Mayor Of Cajun Town Bans Baggy Pants

DELCAMBRE, La. -- The Delcambre Town Council said overly saggy britches are obscene, and so does Mayor Carol Broussard, who said he will sign an anti-sag ordinance passed unanimously this week.

The addition to the Cajun-country town's indecent exposure ordinance carries penalties of up to six months in jail and a $500 fine for being caught in pants that show undergarments or, in the mayor's view, "private parts."

Broussard said he has nothing against saggy pants but thinks people who wear them should use discretion.

Low-hanging, baggy pants have become a fashion fad, mostly for young men in the hip-hop culture.

Broussard denied the ordinance is racially motivated.


Another local pol known for his tough-on-ass-crack stance is Marrero's own Derrick Shepherd who may just end up the next U.S. Congressman from Louisiana's 2nd District.. thanks to some "strategic" campaigning by "subtly minded" local conservatives.
