Oh, please. Spare me the “all opinions are equally valid” argument. Yeah, there are lots of people out there who believe that it’s OK to live in a sty, that horoscopes are a good way to make decisions, and that crystals can heal tumors. Fine. That doesn’t mean those opinions aren’t wrong, and I will continue to consider those beliefs to be mistaken. Yes, I am being “judgmental”. That’s a good thing.
Put another way, people who are unable to form judgments are the one that are likely to believe in horoscopes, healing crystals, racial and other demogogues, manipulative religions, and other nonsense.
If you want to apply the american television stereotypes of what a trailer park trash person such as I must surely be, then I guess there is nothing wrong with ME saying all black people are crack addicted illiterates that steal cars - after all, that is what I see on cops!!!
Honestly , this place is supposed to be about ‘fighting ignorance’ if you want to tar people with a stereotype brush, then start a ‘pro-ignorance’ message board. I am so sick of the ‘trailer-trash’ comments I could puke. most of you have never set foot in a park, all you know you have gleaned from TV, and that is not an objective meter for measuring class.
I bet I couldnt find ONE person in the trailer park where I live as low class as some of bratman’s ‘friends’ who have shown up here.
Take a look at your own gene pool buster - I am heading for the county fair with the other NON-HYPOCRITS!!!
Kelli, if that was directed at me, please re-read my first reply in this string. Here’s a highlight:
The Mississippi trailer park page featured unmaintained, dirty and trash-strewn trailer lots. Some had evidence that pets and kids were being neglected. THAT is what I object to, not every person who lives in a trailer. I think I clearly stated this previously.
It is just so annoying to constantly hear the ‘trailer trash’ comment.
And to be blunt, to hear someone like bratman talk about cleaning up the genepool, when he is consorting with the biggest peice of trash I ever saw posting is ludicrous!
