How can anyone with a functioning brain use the word culture in the same sentence with the words hip hop? Or even consider hip hop as music. Worse still, some media sources describe many of the more revolting hip hop screamers as artists. Mozart was an artist. Rembrandt was an artist. Enrico Caruso was an artist. Ella Fitzgerald was an artist. Sammy Davis was an artist. Frank Sinatra was an artist. The untalented slobs of hip hop are not artists, and certainly not cultured in their rantings and revolting lifestyles in any way.

The shameful hip hop movement is peopled by school drop-out sociopaths who hate everything, especially women and cops. Their so-called singing is merely yelling out their grammatically stupid and angry gutter words along with annoying beats that sound like trash cans banging together. Along with the beat, there's often screaming that sounds as if an alley cat's tail was caught in the middle.

Of course, together with all the ear-damaging noises, the hip hop screamers need to constantly be certain that everyone needs to notice them. They pierce many parts of their anatomy and hang jewelry from the holes. They color their hair garishly and wear outlandish clothing and headgear, so that everyone is certain to know they closely resemble the distorted mental and physical images of clownish fools that used to amuse kings in the Middle Ages.

As for banning baggy, saggy pants on teens who feel the need to show the world they're just as foolish as the hip hop clowns they worship, personal opinion could possibly diverge a bit. When governments make any kind of laws that interfere with our freedoms, it can be the first step of something that can lead to politicians next telling us how to live, speak, love, work, play or gather together. Or seek our own choices of healthcare.

Another danger can be that authorities should know that when anything is banned, especially for teens, such as booze, cigarettes, pot, crack, and idiotic looking trousers, it can't stop it. It only encourages the most foolish among them to do even more outrageously rebellious versions of the same. On the other hand, for many sane adults with some hope left that decent music will return, if banning saggy pants will kill the hip hop plague, it may be worth a prayer or two that it will happen.

Hey, if our music, clothing, music or anything else we're into offends our teachers and parents, we must be doing something right!
