Would you support a law, which has been proposed in an increasing number of cities, that would make the wearing of saggy or low-slung pants indecent exposure?

“No. But I think how you dress impacts how people view you.”

— Frank Billar - Boston

“There should be limits. I have seen [an instance] where a person should have been arrested for indecent exposure because he was indecently exposed — it was beyond saggy. A little sag, a little underwear, I don’t see that as a problem, but showing your butt is a problem.”

— Ken Mathews - Billerica

“I would be in favor of [such a law]. It’s more than just because I don’t like how it looks; it’s a statement — a rude statement, at the very least. I work in construction, and it is not something that would ever be allowed at a construction site for safety reasons. As a social statement, I don’t want anyone looking at America from any distance and thinking that’s what we are.”

— Pete Burnett - Seekonk

“I definitely would not support that [law]. You should be allowed to wear what you want to wear; it is an expression of yourself. As long as you’re not showing anything inappropriate, I don’t think [such a law should be enacted].”

— Hilary Stinnett - Boston
