Atlanta May Fine People Sporting Baggy Pants

CHICAGO (CBS) ― Droopy drawers will be the topic of a big public debate in Atlanta.

The city wants to fine anyone who sports baggy pants that show off their underwear. A councilman says the look is degrading and obscene.

The American Civil Liberties Union says the dress ban unfairly targets the hip-hop culture, and in particular young African Americans, for their fashion sense.

Several public hearings will be held before the measure can become law.
