Saggy Pants Arrest at California Airport Creates Dissent, Charges Dropped!

Thursday, July 14, 2011 , Posted by JED at 11:44:00 PM


Saggy pants wearers may now live in peace knowing the sagginess of their pants is not a crime in the United States of America.

They can now be saggy in the airport, or a plane, mall, or perhaps any other location.

Charges against Deshon Marman, a college football player from San Francisco, have been dropped. Marman was initially accused of resisting arrest after a June 15th incident aboard a US Airways flight- an incident that stemmed from the bagginess of Marman’s pants.

The 20-year-old was arrested and charged with trespassing, resisting arrest and suspicion of battery on a police officer at San Francisco International Airport following a flight attendant’s request the young man- who has a full scholarship, football and academic, at the University of New Mexico- pull up the pajama pants he was wearing. Marman told crew members he would adjust the saggy pants as soon as he got to his seat, as his hands were full.

San Mateo County District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe said Wednesday that prosecutors “do not believe that criminal charges are warranted in light of all of the circumstances surrounding the incident.” The decision followed a protest at City Hall Wednesday in which 200 people gathered to demand charges against Marman be dropped.

Protesters complained Marman was targeted because he is young and black. One dramatically stated:
You say you want the pants pulled up,” the Rev. Amos Brown said from the podium. “We say, pull up justice in America.”
A spokesman for US Airways said the airline is “in open communication” with Brown and the NAACP over the incident, but did not provide further details. The company also said it was trying to help Marman keep his scholarship.

    I have to say, I have no comment on whether Marman was racially targeted. What I can say is the bottom line is, it is unconstitutional to tell a citizen of this country to pull his pants up because it is "unsightly". What if the airport security worker wore his pants like that when not working? Then it is more likely then not, that security would tell him to pull his pants up.
    Secondly, if safety was in question, as in suspicious activity because the pants were oversized, than he should've been asked to drop his luggage and go threw proper security measures.
    Bottom line is, it is rediculous to think that the preference size of someones pants could land someone in jail.
    Not to mention, look at the kid's credentials. He's good kid. Glad this ended up in his favor.

    Playing the race card again. Yawn.......But since it was brought up, it was the black population that started & perpetuates this stupid "fashion" trend. But just to be inclusive, I don't wanna see any Latina's "big curves" (fat ass or gi-condous boobs); or any white person's muffin top spilling over into my seat area on the plane. Nor the see-thru stretch pants with the thong underneath. Gross. Whatever happened to Modesty? Decorum? Professionalism? Pride in Appearance? Classiness? and I would never board an airplane dressed like a pig like that. When airlines allowed it to happen (when it became less of an experience to fly & more of a bus in the sky), they ruined it for all.
    Perhaps a dress code should be enforced to board aircraft. Those that do not like it can board other carriers & behave & look like swine. Then those of us who understand decorum can be left in peace.

    The saggy pants (typically revealing boxer shorts) look is utterly ridiculous ... And those who do it do tend to be of a particular race (and age group)... Do you ever wonder why they've chosen this look? It's not flattering and does nothing but scream "hoodlum" ...What I'm waiting to see is one of them trip and fall b/c their pants fell down too far!

    The man wasn't arrested for wearing saggy pants. He was arrested for refusing to comply with the wishes of the plane crew and later the police. It may be unconstitutional to tell a citizen to pull up his pants ( I can just imagine our founders connecting the Constitution to low riding pants that reveal underwear and butt cracks)but it is NOT unwarranted for a private company to tell patrons what they can or cannot wear on private property. I am not morally offended by women who dress like hookers and men who dress like, I don't know what - but I do feel DISRESPECTED when their "right" to dress like this conflicts with my right to be FREE of the sight of them in certain situations.

    People have no more of a "right" to bare their breasts and butts in most public places than they do to blast the neighbors at night with loud music or urinate on their lawns. And there are of course people who DO think they have the right to do all of these things. Self centered morons. All about them. Pathetic too that a black minister equates a request to "pull up your pants" with injustice.

    As I was leaving my bank with a money bag in my hand an 18 year old, 6'4", 185 lb. person of that color grabbed my money bag and bolted down the street. I (a 60 year old man) took off after him and chased him 2 blocks till a policeman saw what was happening and stopped him. How did I keep up with him for 2 blocks? His pants were down around his knees and he finally tripped in the middle of the street when the police were after him. There is an advantage to this fashion statement, and the ignorance of those that think it is cool.

    I am so tired of people playing the race card! It's not acceptable for anyone to walk around in public with the pants half way (or more) down their butt. He doesn't have a "right" to ride. So, pull your pants up or get off! End of story.

    It's not illegal to wear saggy pants or pajamas pants and all of you who say it looks stupid need to look away if you don't want to see. Everywhere there people are dressed inappropriately and you need to just mind your own business and get a life so you won't need to care what others are wearing. As far as the airline goes in making a fuss about this situation, the airline needs to make a dresscode if they don't want people to dress like that. Otherwise, as long as people aren't intentionally exposing themselves, they are not expected to dress a certain way. You want to tell them how to dress? Make a DRESS CODE. They probably won't ride your airline again but at least it won't be an issue will it!!!??
    Sick of people trying to tell others how to dress and look! GET A LIFE!!

    The saddest thing about this - saggy pants or no - are the racist comments I'm seeing. Wow. I've seen people of all colors who wear inappropriate clothing, who are felons, who are ignorant. But also people of all colors who are educated, resourceful, and pleasant. That is humanity. Those of you making sarcastic comments about "pulling the race card" have not experienced the hell and frustration of descrimination. Just rules put in place for the protection of the public should be enforced, but can only be enforced justly when people separate law from personal hatred and unhapiness. When you rant about the "race card" and use the "n" word (do people REALLY still say that!!?), you just reveal your own issues.

    I hate saggy pants! Absolutely hate them!

    But, on the other hand, arresting someone for wearing them is insane and shows how far our country has slipped into a police state. It does not matter who the President is (Obama, Bush, Clinton) they are all the same.

    I thought under Obama we would see a restoration of personal liberties (stupid me). Things have actually gotten worse under the brown shirt tactics of Janet Napolitano and John Pistole (TSA). By the way I did not like Bush either.

    Hope people take a serious look at Ron Paul in 2012.

    Leigh, you said it best. Extremely eloquent and true. To all the racists that posted, I wish it were as simple as telling you to f**k off and turn your head if you don't want to see, but it's already painfully obvious that your "stiff necked-ness" prevents that. I'll also bet anything that the same ones spewing this same-old same-old, are the 1st ones to claim "they have black friends." To the guy that said he doesn't want to see a curvy mexican woman's body, they have an altar up in Mass and now New York, just for you. I love boobs. I'll take em...and fiesta with them all!!! And to the guy that said he's seen more "black ass-crack than china has rice", I guess we all know now what team you play for as well. Go join the "man" that's afraid of mexican lady boobs.

    Sooooo typical of some of the "anonymous" posters. Bigoted and yell "stop playing the race card!" then deny they're bigoted. How do you know why the guy was targeted? YOU DON'T. You weren't there so stop speculating. If he felt he was targeted due to race (a bit like Angry White Males thinking they're "discriminated" against) then let the guy have his opinion.

    Sure baggy pants are stupid. Sure they're unsightly but really, that's about it. They make him look like a moron.

    To the ignorant joker who believes he has a right to not see this guys baggy pants and boxers and that it amounts to indecent exposure: Indecent exposure is *NOT* in the U.S. Constitution. Indecent exposure laws vary municipality to municipality. I hope you don't go to beaches or lakes because what people ware there amounts to underwear. I hope like hell you never go where topless sunbathing is allowed. You'll have a heart attack and wither away from free range boobies.

    The "oh playing the race card again) people: Grow a pair of stones and tell us how you *really* feel since you think you're soooo not PC. We know what you think and we're sick of you hiding behind your "but I have #-here black friends!"

    You people make me ill. Stop hiding your bigotry because I for one want to know exactly who you are. Go hang out with Stormfront or some other neo-Nazi organization. They will welcome you with open arms.

    I cannot believe so many people from the U.S. have grown to be so stupid. Try critical thinking sometimes because you lot make our entire country look like a bunch of backwards hicks. Morons.

    the ironic thing about this was that Marman was charged with a crime for something as senseless as a baggy pair of pants when the reason he was coming back home was to visit the funeral of a high school friend and teammate who was murdered from a senseless act of violence. Which story got more notoriety?

  1. Nick H. says:

    So it's public indecency when a Black man "sags" his pants, but it's cool when a white girl wears low-rides and her thong, as well as half her skinny ass is showing? Or it's really cool to have her silicone filled breasts pouring out of her X/S blouse? Would I wear pajamas outside of the house? No. Does he have the right? Yes. Read the article...he had an ACADEMIC full ride as well...yes it's a style created in jail and it looks kinda silly when it's overdone, but I think if you don't like what you see...stop looking.

This started in prison to let others know they like it in the backdoor. Young black men should learn how to show respect for others. And Rev you need to learn not to keep making excuses for ypung black men when they screw up. The justice system is screwed up but sometimes its the young man who thinks the world owes him something.

    Now by ALL means tell me exactly how this kid's baggy sleep pants were "indecent". Go right ahead.

    The football player was wearing sleep pants that were baggy. You people DO know the difference between "pajama's sag" and "intentional sag" don't you? Please say you're not this stupid? Either way, saggy pants or baggy sleep pants or track pants are IMO, tacky but the way some of you are interpreting this is just incredibly stupid.

    Ans FYI, this college student is on an academic scholarship. You know what this means right? It means he does well in his studies OFF the field)and got a merit based scholarship.

    Again-again-again: Look up the story about this. The guy was wearing pajama bottoms and his hands were full. But I guess you're perfectly ok with the man who boarded with the same airline mere days later wearing nothing except a bra, panties and a shrug .

    This is not about saggy pants but about pants hanging down so low as to see half or more of your boxers or briefs. I dont care what the race, it is retarded and inconsiderate of other people and I believe it SHOULD be outlawned nationally just as its not ok to walk down a street nude. Its not proper, it shows low moral standards and "profiles" you as a young stupid thug that is dealing drugs or into at least some illegal activity. Why is this? Because its what we SEE in the news of those commiting all the crimes.....so yeah when I drive my truck with custom adjustable air ride suspension down the road I do so knowing that I am being profiled by everyone around me as some ignorant teenage punk but at least I do not display low moral standards and present myself as crude and inconsiderate of others and I accept that I might get hassled by police or others for no reason at all.

I don't know about you but personally i don't like the seem of my fucking pants going up my ass thus i pull them down a little. Does that make me a "lower" or "hoodlum"? FUCK NO! Just because you don't like the style of something doesn't mean you have to put everyone down because of it, that just makes you an intolerant asshole who think his way is the only way. Like fucking Christian!

    Just keep in mind that "saggy" pants indicate the wearer is "ready & available" for some same gender action. It's their signal, not something I would want to advertise, but...

    Only one comment was of interest to me: One writer indicated that saggy pants was a "thug" look. Is that meant to say that no thugs existed before the era of these pants? Think about that, if you are capable. I am against these saggy pants. I think they look idiotic, but if people want to wear them, they have a right. Whites do it too as well as some lesbians (black and white). As far as the "race card", that is the card I was dealt. Many do use race as an excuse but there are still too many racially motivated acts to warrant outlawing the "race card". This is a racist society and any one denying that is a goddam, stupid fool!

    You people are too damn worried about the police putting young guys in jail for sagging. Maybe they would rather spend their money on him going to college than him being locked away. People get away with killing children and raping, but you wanna see a kid go away for something as small as sagging? I hate sagging pants but I have a perfectly working neck and if I dont want to see it, I turn my head. Its sad that people are still calling blacks the n word, while I sit back and shake my head. All of you people are probably up in age and should know better. You putting your two sense in and being racist is so old school!! You want to be racist then do that and try not doing it on the worldwide web. I am a young black female woman and as I read comments, I see why our country is on the fast road to failing and ITS NOT BECAUSE OF OBAMA. I wish people would stop blaming him too because he was put in office after the country was messed up already.So if you thought he was going to be able to snap his fingers and make everything go away, he isnt a magician. He is trying to clean up Bush's mess so grow the hell up. Maybe racist people should go to jail and each one should share a cell with a guy that sags, say it to his face and call him a nigger then!Bet that wont happen. Simple minded people!

His scholarship would NEVER have been in jeopardy in the first place if the captain and stewardess would have let things be and not made such an issue of this. It seems they are possibly racist or just ignorant to other cultures or their own. I don't know. What a tragic waste of time and news space and was a negative and black mark it is on society that we even make things like this an issue. Shame on you all. You are a disgrace.

    I think it's a shame and a disgrace for people to walk around in public or anywhere else to where they can visibly be seen with their pants down to their knees and their crack showing or their underwear showing. That is why they invented belts to keep your pants UP! I think a law should still be in affect that if pants are worn below the hips, and their underwear or crack is showing, then they deserve jail time, that is still considered indecent exposure and they need to start enforcing on these laws, it is not right for other people to have see it when it can be covered up, belts do not cost that much so wear your pants the way your mothers and fathers SHOULD have taught you to wear them if they didn't already, pull them UP and wear a belt!

    No, he was targeted because his pants weren't pulled up. All the other people, blacks included, were not hassled because they pants were around their waist, not underneath their asses.

    Honestly, I'm so tired of hearing the race card played every time a black person is charged with a crime. Its an insult to the law-bidding black people in this country to make those claims, unless there is some true in them. Every false claim of racism hurts and hides the real racism that exists.

    The type of people who wear 'saggin' pants are the type of people who cause trouble. I worked in a college town for over 10 years dealing with the people that wear their saggin pants and they are the ones that cause all trouble. So we handled them with whatever means we felt like using and then called the cops. It is really something to see 5 punks that dress like that beat up one guy and then when the odds are evened up, they run away holding their pants up. It is very comical but typical and gives every decent hard working black person a bad name and at the same time creates racism. I despise the white trash and latino trash just as much. Have some self respect and pride. Also I have heard that saggin pants came from prison from the guys that take it in the ass and the saggin is like an invitation or so I've heard.

    I work in an urban school and I've seen kids running down the hall and their pants fall down because they're already low as it is. It's disgusting, and it screams "please don't ever hire me!"

    The trend began in the 1980's when there was a big crack problem. People who use crack apparently lose a lot of weight so naturally they'd have to wear a belt to avoid losing their pants all the time. When they'd get arrested for either possession or robbery or whatever, their belts would be taken away from them upon arriving in prison so that they wouldn't hang themselves or use it on someone else. Of course their pants would fall down as a result.

    The fact of the matter is, then, that this fashion trend is rooted in criminal behavior, and the fact that anyone honors that by continuing it is even more disgusting than the trend itself.

The way the media keeps playing up the "saggy pants" angle is what is causing the confusion among people commenting. i agree with many here by saying that ANY "fashion" that exposes an immodest amount of flesh is unsightly. The issue here is that it makes our young men look woefully unintelligent and it causes people to make a judgement call about who you are before they get a chance to find out the truth. You NEVER get a second chance to make a first impression. BTW, i have seen little boys as young as 4 and 5 being allowed to go out in public in DESPERATE need of a belt.

    So yeah, sagging pants look stupid, I don't care who you are. My brother (who is white BTW) sags his pants and I am constantly telling him to pull them up because he looks stupid. It's not just the black kids everyone, sheesh.

    Also, sagging pants did originate in prison but NOT because of homosexual inmates signalling they were "available" (that's just as stupid and ignorant as racism people, seriously). It was due to ill fitting clothing and a lack of belts due to inmates hanging themselves. It spread into hip hop culture and, voila, it's a fad.

    I really wish people would stop just repeating shit they hear because they think it will deter anyone else from doing something they find offensive. It's never going to happen. This is America. We get to dress, talk, and behave however we want regardless of how ignorant or arrogant it may make us seem. The same freedoms that allow your racism and ignorance also allow everyone else the freedom to do what they want. That's why our country is simultaneously amazing and ignorant, we can do what we want without fear of repercussions.

    Pulling the race card just because you aren't white is tiresome and makes you sound just as racist as the racism you're demanding an end to. Conversely, white people giving every other race continuous reason to pull the race card is just as tiresome. If everyone just got over themselves the world would be a much better place. However you have the RIGHT to do and say what you want even if I think it makes you look/sound like an idiot. So carry on exercising your right to be ignorant, it's what makes our country great after all.

    PULL UP YOUR PANTS, THATS ALL TO IT DAMN

    It has nothing to do race it is all about public decency. If you want to wear your pants with your nasty ass hanging out then do it around peopel who do it. But the fact of the matter is that most people do not want to see that crap because a bunch of thug wannabes are trying to attract attention to themselves. If you come out of your home looking decent, that is one thing but it is so out of control I think his ass should stayed in jail for it. If I can't walk around naked in public why should he be allowed to have his ass out? With all prejudices aside, it all boils down to respect and we as citizens should have teh right to go out in public and not have to be plagued with vulgar language, sagging pants, and the rest of that crap. AND for all of you who keep harping on it being a racial issue...get over it. It has nothing to do with race as blacks, whits, asians,a nd many other ethnicities walk around like this.

    Him being a good kid has nothing to do with this. If I walk out the house and my pants fall to knees, as a decent human being, my instincts tell me to go and put on a belt or to put on another pair of pants that fit. If he is dimissed solely on the fcat that he is a "good kid," then who is to blame and where does it stop? Do we go after the parents and say that they failed to teach their children proper etiquette? No, it should a matter of human decency to always dress appropriately. Hell, there are jobs that won't allow peopel to wear flip flops but yet we want to fight someone's right to wear sagging pants? No wonder this country is all screwed up.

    Nobody posting on this site today ahve lived through slavery so shut the fuck up with all this racial profiling shit. You play the cards you are dealt meaning if u act like a thug u get treated like one. As a black man myself, I have never and would never walk out my front door unless I am looking like the gentleman my mother raised. That did not include walking with fake limp, sagging my pants, or any of that other nonsense. He knew what he was doing and he deserved what he got. So anybody posting that is taking up for him and using the balck card, chances are your are a thug as criminal and your asses need to be arrested as well.

    How come I don't see CEO's with their pants down, showing 9 inches of their purple underwear? Hummm, might it come down to intelligence.

    This is to all the people mentioning him losing his scholarship: He didn't acre about taht so why should you? Furthermore, the comment made about him having his hands full well, try again. If his pants slipped down that far then he should have been wearing a damn belt. Don't say he can't afford one cuz he can afford a plane ticket! He got what he deserve and they need to get the rest of those bastards. That way when my kids grow up they won't be subject to doing same nonsense.

    What would Jesus, Buddah, Allah, Yewah, etc, say about his pants??

    They'd say nothing because it doesn't matter how someone wears their clothes.

    However, they'd probably ask all those people who left those mean, uninformative comments "why does it bother you so much? If its just so repulsive, why not turn your head? Why let such a petty detail ruin your mood?

    Older people look for anything to nit-pick about. Today its the baggy pants, tomorrow it will be sleeveless shirts, big earrings, or bright colors. LEAVE US ALONE! Don't make the mistake your parents made. You're unhappy because you've always followed the norms and never got to express yourself, now our generation have true confidence in that we don't care about peoples silly OPINIONS. We will express themselves how we please. Whether it be screaming over bass-filled beats or wearing shorts that show the entire leg. This is not the 1800's anymore. Young people are not afraid to show and decorate our bodies. Don't take your frustrations out on us because you had to live your life according to someone else's rules.

    ITS CALLED FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION, GET USED TO IT OLD PEOPLE BECAUSE IT'S NOT GOING ANYWHERE! ; ) And to all those people who left negative comments without and inch of intellect; read a book and then get a life.

    Im 23 and it's a shame I have to tell "adults" if you don't have anything nice or informative to say keep it to yourself. Adults are the ones who need to grow up.

    shutup nicole. you probably sag your pants. who gives a shit if your 23. Like you said people have the freedom of expression,does that only include positive and informative feelings and comments about the whole situation? NO..I'm not old and I have issues with all this bullshit, sagging pants, and homos everywhere (that are now getting married). my opinion is, your a loser who acts like shes educated. Freedom of expression does not always have to include "informative information" so stfu
