President Obama Committed To Hip-Hop Generation Dress Code
Plantation High School in South Florida took then Barack Obama’s word to heart when he said "brothers should pull up their pants” and just celebrated "Pull Up Your Pants Day" this past week. According to school officials it was a success saying, …the atmosphere was so positive, the kids were on their best behavior, there were no incidents..”
Another teacher gave the kids some history of pants saggin’ saying, "If your pants are saggin' and you want to adopt a jailhouse mentality, that will show in your attitude toward everything. We're not trying to take their individuality away, but there's a time and a place for everything."
Some of the kids are actually asking for “Pull Up Your Pants” Fridays! Not sure why they need a day to actually pull up their pants but it’s one more step in the right direction. Now if only they can help them actually attend and pay attention in class!!

I guess it's okay but i thought this was America.....What happened to FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION??? Why the “brothers” gotta pull their pants up? White boys do it too. I didn't sag like Bow Wow and i damn sure didn't sag like Soulja Boy in that picture but if it isn't affecting their grades then who cares?

im all for expression, but that sagging shit white or black looks foolish. and like or not, how u look or present yourself represents who u are and how u are perceived and thats important. the main problem is the whole "hip hop generation" BS. we shouldnt be associated so much with our music. to me "hip hop generation" means we are obsessed with our money or status and can give a fuck bout anybody else. and as a young black man i dont want that reflected on my whole generation.

The real question is why do they want to sag their pants. Do we all need to see the crack of your ass? That shit is just gay and the style does originate in jail. Ignorant MF's.

The freedom excuse is overrated. It is so disgusting to see guys walk around with there pants beneath their ass. I don't see how they can expect people to respected.

"Freedom of expression" or any "freedom", for that matter, is very much like Jesus Christ if you think about it. They are both sacred, but imaginary.

Any American who supports this targeted policy which will lead to the jailing of more black youth need to have their head examined. I am ashamed a black man would support this. Our ancestors marched and died for us to have equal rights in everything. Separate policies for blacks IS A JIM CROWN MENTALITY. Sagging pants arent costing anyone anything, but all these tattoos that white kids started and now black boys mimic is DETRIMENTAL TO YOUR HEALTH, BUT THAT IS OK TO OBAMA BECAUSE HE BELIEVES IN JIM CROW, AND HE IS GOING TO RETURN US TO SLAVERY.
