A small Alabama town is about to turn their cops into fashion police by passing an ordinance banning saggy pants and too-short shorts that expose too much butt to city residents.

“We have people walking down the street with their hand in front of them holding up their pants,” Dadeville City Councilman Frank Goodman said. “Then they have the nerve to walk into a place of business and ask for a job. If you come to my house you are going to pull them up before you get on my property, much less in my door. I prayed about this. I know that God would not go around with pants down.” Dubbed the “Saggy Pants Ordinance,” city council member Stephanie Kelley opted to include women who wear too short dresses or booty shorts.
