Required Action Initiative Stopping Sagging Pants Effort

Posted By: Patrick Parker on July 18, 2008 petition overview | letter Required Action Initiative Stopping Sagging Pants EffortTarget: A national standard of decency petainining to sagging pants in AmericaSponsored by: Pastor Patrick Parker FIRE Ministries of DeSoto, TexasThere are laws and sub-laws that govern every segment of American society, from the upper echelons of the federal government ,through the control of pan-handling and the homeless initiative. We as a body of believers, and people who perceive the challenge have inherently failed to transpond that crucial but delicate message of ethics and responsibility to those whom are most often victimized and subjected to the degradation of such blatant inefficacies as providing a nationwide standard of relating to youth who choose to participate in the sub-culture phenomena of wearing sagging pants and the malefacting manufacturers who in-turn propagate the continuation of this behavior (now sub-culture) which has permeated the very fabric of our society. The true crime is that there has not been some concerted or valid attempt of the established government to curtail, effectively deter, or eradicate this negative mentality which has evidently transcended racial, and cultural social barriers. The residual affect is immeasurable, the stereo-types, cultural de-valution of various groups and members of our future generations, who receive no sense of responsibility to adhere to the law or any societal norms. The apathy of numerous religious, community and other social groups to effectively place demands on the government whom we,ve elected to acknowledge that there is a conscious effort to eliminate a vital portion of our society by ignoring and promoting utter and blatant disregard for societal norms (which promotes criminal and other negative values and behavioral stigma). In essence the ensuing behavior is causing a declination of self-esteem, respect, and antipathy towards themselves and others. Therefore, I have been so moved to solicit the immediate move to action to petition the Congress of the United States to hear the voice of the people of the United States of America and expeditiously address this concern with an effective remedy at the request of the 1,000,000 signatures submitted this day. Please return to this site upon the effective receipt of each 1000 sinatures Please send and forward this to every pastor, evangelist, apostle, minister and concerned parent in the the country. I pray you will take on the burden and responsibility for the effectieveness of dispersion to at least the next 100 people that you know.

AMEN!!! Glad to see others speak out against a issue I have been speaking out against for years in my dealings with youth. I just made a comment to a blog: "Do you Believe America uses HIP-HOP AS A scape Goat to elude Personal issues."; and I commented about "sagging pants". Keep up the great work, I was aware of a movement against the use of the "N" word, but not a movement that you mention in this blog. Keep up the great work and glad to see others are taking a stance against, speaking out, being bold and courageous, etc. There is nothing like seeing "sagging pants" at Church???
