NY State Senator Sick and Tired of Sagging Pants

ban-the-sag.jpg

New York State Senator Eric Adams has his own issue with pants on the ground and rather than put it to ridiculous song, he’s using $2,000 of his own campaign funds to put up six 22-foot billboards throughout his native Brooklyn to help “Stop the Sag.”

In a statement, Adams, a former NYPD captain, says, “This sagging pants culture represents an immature disregard for the basic civility, courtesy, and responsibility that our young men should display.” After the jump, you can watch Adams explaining his anti-sag effort, which includes the message that “young people must have pride.”
