Since when did being poor or underprivileged give you the right to act like a moron?

I've noticed it is now indefensible to bust someone's chops for acting like a moron if they are poor. Supposedly the idea is that because they are underprivileged they don't know how to act like a decent citizen? I'm just wondering, because lots of my family grew up poor in the country, and you won't find a single one that acts like a goddamn animal(rooting around in sh!t as it were). I'm just reminded of this, because the bastards in the Housing Projects and Apartments near my work are ALWAYS causing trouble. Fights, breaking into the park, vandalism, theft, etc. Why is there a license to do so? It is almost accepted that their behavior is the norm for poor people. That's bullsh!t. Most poor people I know aren't fvcking asshats, so why do we let some get away with it? I'm doubly confused.

because we do not want to hurt there feelings and make them think they are poor and lazy etc.

we must tell them "Good JOB!" whenever they do something. Even if it is not a good job.

We must make excuses for them being poor, stupid, lazy etc and help them out as much as we can.

Not knowing if this is just flamebait or just profound myopia, I'm not sure where to begin. So I don't believe I will. What I am sure about is that the direction that this will head will lend the topic more to the Politcs forum...

All kinds of people. Black, white, brown, whatever. All kinds. I've noticed that the projects around work tend to attract the worst of the lot, so I end up dealing with their antics at work.

That would be my thought....I see it all the time and remember that you are a racist if you don't accept that kind of behavior from them.....it is the new world order but the backlash is going to be a biatch when people actually open their eyes and stop letting themselves be intimidated.

It is apparent this thread is about something else. Please don't try to divert it in some attempt to be fair. There are stupid rich people too, but they typically just bitch and don't break sh!t/start fights. I'd rather deal with someone being verbally abusive than to deal with someone that tries to hit other employees, guests, or breaks equipment.

that seems a bit stereotypical.

what about the wealthier people that act like snobs, or think they're better than everyone because they have more money?? considering they're mostly white, it gives people of other minorities reason to hate them and act like morons?

Well then, you have my okeedokee to pull out your 9mm and start blasting every moving thing you see. Would that make you happy?

What about them? You and PlatinumGold are free to start a thread about their snobbery if you so desire. I actually have made a thread about soccer moms before and prissy white people names, so please don't try to disrupt the thread by accusing me of being biased. I've already ranted about rich people before.

Gangbangers can't shoot. I think a large proportion of this deviant behavior is caused by El Nino. Quite simply, this behavior hasn't been a major problem until recent times, say the last 15 years, when El Nino started having serious effects on North America. This may be helped by the high levels of polution coming from today's hoardes of SUVs. So basically it's the fault of the wealthy that the poor act in the manner in which they do, because of the SUV polution. In conclusion, SUVs are the devil, and...

You're just barely above the poverty line yourself.

Shut your blow hole. I'm not out acting like a fvckstick. I'm a stickler for the law.

No, you just act like a fvckstick on here. It's not as easily explained as Mill's conundrum though.

I think it's the other way around. Because they're such morons who'd steal, fight, etc, they're stuck in the sh!tholes you're describing. My stepfather used to manage HUD-subsidized housings, and there were certainly decent folks who don't make a lot of money(or just not much at all), but it was also easy to find dealers and whiny bitches who were angry at the world for not handing them everything.
