Conrad Black's 'Wardrobe Malfunction' - Or Is He Getting It Down With The Crips?
"Inmate number 18330-424 at the Coleman Federal Detention Complex, aka Baron Black of Crossharbour (or "Lordy", as he is apparently known to fellow inmates), is wearing one trouser leg rolled up, gangster-style." [...}If you roll the right one you're usually boasting membership of the notorious Folks/Crips alliance - the Folks being a gang that formed in 1978 within the Illinois prison system and aligned itself in the early-90s to the west coast's famous blue bandana-wearing Crips. The Folks and Crips are usually sworn enemies of the Peoples/Bloods grouping, more often seen wearing red. In prisons, where the sporting of coloured gang symbols is prohibited, the discreet rolling of left or right leg serves to show which side you're on."

Wow, Conrad looks so weird with that outfit. If he were not in prison you would never see him wear such cheep cloths.
