I never said that crime did not exist in low income neighborhoods, it exists everywhere. I did not come from money either and had to struggle. But what is going on with this posting about trailer trash is predjudice and anyone living in a trailer with a low income is being labeled as "trash" that is a narrow minded point of view and it is cruel and if you really appreciate getting where you are and how you got there then you would understand how ridiculous some of these statements about people with low incomes living in trailers really are. When you were struggling did you consider yourself trash? or rather someone with a purpose, just as good as those with a higher income than yours the only difference being you are just having to struggle a little harder? I remember where I came from and how hard it was to get where I am and how comments such as "trailer trash" and some of the other names being called here made me feel and because of that I could never say something that would make someone else feel that way because your neighborhood, home or income does not make you trash, your actions are what determine the person you really are.
