so I guess my previous examples are salient...
looks like the the person wearing a swimsuit that is exposed over sweatpants is breaking the law untill they remove the sweatpants.
And a woman wearing a towel around her that exposes her bikini bottoms is breaking the law, untill she removes the towel, exposing more.. then she's ok. Stupid
THats not a twisting, that appears to be the law ( I couldn't find the text anywhere... great news reporting...)
Seems like its alot of old jackasses that supported this one...

Quote:
if your underwear are hanging out of your underwear and they are visible, it is punishable by fine first and second offense, and i believe the third time you can be arrested.
I would start wearing an extra pair of boxers outside my pants and see where things go. It amazes me the extent idiots will go to legislate their moral values upon others. I am no less offended by the concept of this law than they would be at a law that requires people to show their underwear in public. Why should their moral value of no underwear seen in public be any more valid than my moral value of underwear must be seen in public (to prove that it is being worn, of course).
The unintended consequence of this law... people will stop wearing underwear 'cause you cant be arrested for showing underwear if you aren't wearing any.
On a side note, I wonder how these morons function walking through a department store seeing mannequins displaying the stores selection of clothes, including... *gasp* underwear.

Exactly! Wear a pair of briefs as underwear, then a pair of boxers to hang out, with jeans over those. Are the boxers underwear, or a form of expression with respect to this stupid law?

I wish they had a glossary that defined what the terms mean. What does "left in transportation" mean? Someone left the bill in the subway? Someone sent it to the transportation committee? The trans. Com. lost it? who knows. Real informative website.

This goes back to my claim that lawmakers have too much time on their hands. They need to feel important in order to justify the huge salaries they have given themselves, thus they spend their time passing stupid laws. We need to change it so that all laws expire after a few years. This would give the lawmakers some busy work so that they feel important while the rest of us can get on with living our lives.

That's the best idea I've heard in a long time. However they'd just end up passing an omnibus bill (everything in one bill) of the same laws plus they'd tack on and slip in a bunch of new ones, plus some pork-barrel shit too. No lawmaker could ever risk voting against the omnibus+pork bill or they'd be accused of being anarchists.

The bill clearly refers to representations of "human genitalia" several times. If it were to pass a fun thing to do would be to attach something that is clearly an animal penis (ie, a dog's "red-rocket" penis) to the testicles. If I lived in Virginia I would for sure do this.

Why wouldn't you?
I think it's pretty funny myself. I like Ziggen's idea... Just make them representations of animal genitalia. In fact the sheer size of them should show that they are representations of large animal genitalia. You could make and package them as a "new version" "fully legal to display" "donkey balls", etc..
