A forty-eight hour lock up is the sentence for two seniors at Bolivar Central High School in Bolivar, Tennessee, who were busted for wearing saggy pants on several occasions. The two high school students will spend the weekend in the Hardeman County Jail, after being reprimanded many times for “wearing saggy pants in violation of the school dress code which stated “low slung, baggy seat, baggy legged or bell bottom pants are not permitted.”
This is not a stand alone incident, but rather stems from an situation back in early November of 2015, when four students were charged with indecent exposure. The school seems to be making a strong statement to the student body, that they are serious about the dress code and they will enforce it.
The question is does the crime fit the punishment. Read more on the next page on how the community and student body are responding.
It seems schools across the country have cited dress codes as reason to excuse the offenders, but failed many times when courts have intervened ? Jt.
I asked a kid .Do you sage to make a point to the world that they can kiss your @….Dumb @ said it is just fashion.
Good. Nobody wants to see your jailhouse$#%&!@*
Those cons will love kids with their pants down.
It is called indecent behavior and offensive to people who view it….I would not want my daughters around morons who can’t or won’t keep their pants up and then grab their crouches to keep their pants from falling to the floor….guaranteed you that these idiots are low on the academic scale….wanna bet???
GOOD!!!!!!!!
John Cook Listen you idiot….they have been told and told. It’s about time this was done. If a student can be arrested and suspended for wearing a NRA shirt to school then yes, it’s appropriate. If a 6 year old can be suspended for eating a pop tart in the shape of a gun and a honor student suspended for saying bless you to a friend for sneezing, the they can be arrested for indecent exposure. That is what wear pants down around the$#%&!@*is.
Im sure females in that school break dresscode on the daily, and nothin happens..
Good !!!
society has rules and laws…that make it a society…these morons apparently think their rude and offensive hehavior is their right or their freedom….what about everybody else…all the little fgirls and women etc. don’t they have any rights not to be subjected to these low lifes who can’t keep their pants up…..
