A pamphlet I keep next on my desk is entitled "Rethink Your Priorities". It's an eight-page document detailing the reflections of Dr. Arthur Caliandro of Marble Collegiate Church in New York City, where I once attended. Principally discussing the idea of self-discipline as a fundamental key to personal success, it always reminds me to ensure that I'm putting the most important things in my life first.
Methinks I should copy it and send a copy to Flint, Michigan.
The above is a guideline for how the city is planning to, ahem, crack down on the sag. Seriously. 93 days to a year in jail for not pulling up your pants? (Plumbers all over Flint are nervous.)
Did I mention Flint was rated the third most dangerous city in America late last year, trailing only St. Louis and its downstate neighbor, the D?
Though I too think the sag is unintelligent in ways that words can't fully describe, is this really the best use of city law enforcement time and money?
MAYBE NOT. Jemele doesn't care - she's glad that the law's telling thise idiots to pull their damned pants up. But she also touches on why these fools sag - it's a trend that started in prison. Which, in our backwards America, makes perfect sense as to why it's now popular. Sigh.
