11 Nabbed for Baggy Pants in Florida

Convince me that this is not a racist ordinance:
While most of the busts occurred without incident, a few of the arrestees appeared bewildered that they were being arrested for a trouser-related offense. One of the juveniles, in fact, cursed out Officer J. Thornton and said, according to one affidavit, "Your a cracker and ain't got shit better to do." First-time violators of ordinance 12-3043 face a fine of up to $150. Repeat offenders could be sentenced to a maximum of 30 days in jail.

Apparently, keeping society safe from youngsters in baggy pants is far more important than keeping us safe from drugs, violent crime, and a host of other social ills that plague us. America's priorities are all f**ked up. I'd be laughing my ass of if it all weren't so damned stupid.
