From: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6948910/ RICHMOND, Va. - Virginia lawmakers dropped their droopy-pants bill Thursday after the whole thing became just too embarrassing. The bill, which would have slapped a $50 fine on people who wear their pants so low that their underwear is visible in "a lewd or indecent manner," passed the state House on Tuesday but was killed by a Senate committee two days later in a unanimous vote. Republican Sen. Thomas K. Norment said news reports implied that lawmakers were preoccupied with droopy pants.
