I've watched cops let kids go a bunch of times, just the other night, a bunch of neighborhood kids stole a car and the cops let them all go with barely a warning.

I have never ever before this thread heard someone say it was offensive towards white people.

There is no definitive description of white trash, you'll know it when you see it. If people don't know white trash when they see it, they are either blind or naive.
