Va. Bill Sets Fine for Low-Riding Pants

Can we get a referendum for a "Three Stupid Laws and You're Out" measure? The first time someone gets fined under this (proposed) law, the state is going to be hit by a lawsuit and spend tens of thousands of dollars defending it in a losing effort. Is this even going to help the re-election campaign of the delegates sponsoring it? "Vote for me. I'm tough on pants."

Pantaloony, I tell you. It still needs to pass Virginia's Senate and be signed by the governor. Let's see if the other leg of the legislature goes along with this.
