The Transportation Security Administration identifies many, many official threats to our skies, from contact lens solution to gel shoe inserts to throwing stars. Even in the wake of the "Underwear Bomber," though, boxer shorts have been considered generally safe — unless, that is, as New Mexico safety Deshon Marman discovered Wednesday at San Francisco International Airport, airline personnel can see a little bit too much of them:
On Wednesday, San Francisco police got a call about 9 a.m. that someone was exposing himself outside a US Airways gate, Sgt. Michael Rodriguez said.
An airline employee spotted Marman before he boarded Flight 488, bound for Albuquerque, and complained that Marman's pants "were below his buttocks but above the knees, and that much of his boxer shorts were exposed," Rodriguez said.
The employee asked Marman to pull up his pants before he boarded the plane, but he refused, Rodriguez said. Marman allegedly repeated his refusal after taking his seat on the plane.
"At that point he was asked to leave the plane," Rodriguez said. "It took 15 to 20 minutes of talking to get him to leave the plane, and he was arrested for trespassing." Marman allegedly resisted officers as he was being led away.
Rodriguez told a local TV station that the 5-foot-11, 195-pound Marman, 20, "was not threatening anybody directly," but the airline's dress code forbids "indecent exposure or inappropriate" attire, and "being disruptive" in any fashion once on the plane may interfere with the crew. He was charged with trespassing, battery and resisting arrest, and was being held on $11,000 bail ahead of a scheduled arraignment Thursday afternoon.
Marman's mother told the San Francisco Chronicle that her son was in "an emotionally raw state" after attending the funeral of a recently murdered high school friend on Tuesday, and was targeted by authorities "because of the way he looks - young black man with dreads and baggy pants." She also said that Marman, an incoming juco transfer to New Mexico from the City College of San Francisco, hoped to honor his friend's memory by making it to the NFL. She called him "a good kid trying to make it, and he's going through a lot. And then this happens." For what it's worth, his official New Mexico bio describes Marman as a "true leader with a winning mentality."
Thus ends the initial account of one of the dumbest incidents ever recorded on this site, which is saying a lot. There's plenty to go around. There's Marman, wearing a potentially provocative outfit in a very public place and (allegedly) defying people with the authority to haul him off a plane and into a cell over something as trivial as his pants. There's security, seemingly creating a very real problem with significant consequences from an exceedingly small or nonexistent problem that presented no real threat and could have been prevented much earlier. There's the predictable cesspool of racist comments beneath the story everywhere else it appears Thursday morning on the web.
Personally, I feel a little dumber for having spent a portion of my morning on it, and for actually feeling compelled to offer this parting advice, applicable to any situation you can possibly encounter in life: When in doubt, always pull your pants up.

I woulda been happier if he was repedly tazed into dribbling mush
-
Typical.... ::)

Didn't this trend grow old, oh, 15 YEARS AGO?! Just dumb.
No one wants to see these assholes' asses hanging out. Hell, it looks like they took a steaming dump in their drawers.
-
This is a way for young african american men to show sexual availability to other young african american men. Anybody who says otherwise is a liar.
-
Plus, don't these gangbangers (and wannabe gangbangers) need the ability to make a quick getaway after committing their various blue-collar crimes? How can anyone move with speed and agility with his pants hanging around his ballsack?
In every conceivable way, this "fashion statement" is ghey and retarded.
-
Glad they threw him off the plane. I would say that it would serve as a deterrent but I suspect that the pants on the floor guys don't follow the news.
-
in england, you'll see as many white lads as black, wearing their jeans/trousers like this.
they're usually more middle class too, chuckle.
i'm always amazed by how they manage to even walk, let alone keep their pants up :-\.
-
I think they do it now because they know people hate seeing it. Lets face its mostly white people and respectable African Americans cannot stand the whole "thug" culture. If they mind thier own business then fine, but usually its guys dressed like that who commit violent crimes. I'm talking to the wiggers out there too!

That is in fact where it came from in prisons.

No one can look at this behavior and say there isn't a latent homosexual undertone to it.

yeah, we had wiggers here too, but luckily i don't see / notice them as much anymore.

The wiggers here all became Tapout-type meth-heads.

I think the fad is about over. I do not see it as much now. Kinda like the mullet...there will always be some people that do not have a clue when to change.

-
Man,I grew up in the fucking 70`s and we had some atrocious styles but that pants down to your knees shit has to be the weakest trend ever thought up by some idjit!!

Honestly, who gives a fuck if this guy wants to look like an idiot with his pants this way. Find some real issues to fight.
It turns out he ultimately left the plane voluntarily, but the cops decided to track him down afterward and arrest him anyway. One of the idiot cops then cuts himself with the handcuffs and that's why the guy continues to be held. He hasn't been charged directly with the events that were related to his pants. Totally absurd. Less cops, anyone?

This...and it's funny seeing them when they get caught...because they can't run...
If you want baggy jeans, just buy them that way...
-
Perhaps this fashion trend was perpetuated by the influence of law enforcement in order to make young african american men easier to catch. I can imagine a conspiracy where several influential hip hoppers are made to wear decorative handcuffs and orange jumpsuits in order to aid in the subjugation of more black slaves for our prison factory industrial complex.

Totally disagree, people in general that pay for a service have certain agitations and if multiple people are complaining on the plane, then they have a right to see that their complaint is met with results, we are talking about paying customers, furthermore his attitude towards the authorities should be met with zero tolerance, especially post 911.
I certainly don't like to judge a book by its cover, but seeing someone with their pants down pisses me off, don't know why, however I convice myself that it's non of my business

Not sure if that's how this started, but you can't run a transportation system restricted by the whims of every traveller who wants to bitch about stupid shit.

More people should take your lead. It would be a better world.

I have heard this to from people that work in corrections. That this was originally something gay blacks would do in the system to allow other men to "spot check their ass" or give them a quick dip with the finger. Unheard of faggottry...
If you've every tried dropping your normal pants down and like that and tried to walk, its impossible. I think you have to go up about 6-8" in waist size and have small legs would help to. Whats the reason for this being a look still so popular?. Really popular with the high school kids.
The only other thing I've heard is that makes sense is the extra bagginess created makes room for shit they might want to steal and stuff in their pants.

good stuff

.
LMAO... thats awesome

If men aren’t willing to wash their hands after using the john what makes you thinking pulling up their pants would be any higher on their list of priorities? When I started a thread on the importance of washing your hands, I actually got push back from many of you who thought hygiene was no big deal. :'(
