Kilted Prison Reform
Chas mentioned a member of the rabble may not be posting due to incarceration.
Got me to thinking (run!!).....
Being forced to wear pantz while also incarcerated seems like cruel and unusual punishment....double whammy.
On the other hand security is big in prisons - particularly in the area of clothing. Inmate's tennis shoes have notches cut in the heel for eaiser tracking, many institutions issue distinctive garments in bright orange, stripes, etc. to make the inmates easy to identify should they escape.
Seems to me that a functional kilt - like a utilikilt type kilt - in prison denim or bright orange would provide both comfort and FREEDOM while behind the walls and and still be an easy garment to spot should the inmate escape.
Would also make searches for contraband easier for corrections and detention officers.
Once used to kilts inmates would probably stay with them when they were released. The new "tough guy" prison image of kilts would help make them popular on the outside too.
Time for kilted prison reform...
