Its funny when certain people get offended they start focusing on the small insignificant details, then rather the main issue at hand.

Well, it's unfortunate that there are such terms as. "phat ", "shut up", "ghetto", and "trailer trash".
These don't have anything to do with the people themselves, they usually have another meaning.
I am white and I don't use either of these.
But I've heard Black people use some severe deroggatory terms for white people.

I grew up in "the projects" in NJ after my parents got divorced. My best friends were hispanics and blacks. That, of course, is when most people got along.
We didn't call each other names, then.

I'm actually proud to say I came from the projects. It has made me into a person who developed a lot of common sense and street smarts.

Not all "white people" have never been to the ghetto. Also, the term "ghetto" when used as you are implying it is an adjective...or a descriptive word for something.

Granted, there may be a lot of stereotypes that are not true of "the ghetto", but you can blame TV, movies, news, etc. for others' perceptions of it.

It is the same as when I identify a *** as a ***, or a drunk as a drunk, or a poodle as a poodle. I do not have to be a ***, poodle, or drunk in order to identify them. I can identify loud obnoxious, low class stupid behavior easier if I am not one that acts like that or is like that. Things that are ********* are related to ***'s. Some use the term ghetto to identify ********* behavior. Your question betrays your illogical thinking or rather 'Feeling". The below sites will enlighten people on the ******* problem and the "N" word.

good question, i take advantage of to assert it whilst i replaced right into a youngster as a results of fact all and sundry else replaced into yet i finished an prolonged time in the past. so i assume human beings say that to be cool or cuz different human beings do. Yeah, we do stupid issues and that i don't be conscious of why.

To say "all white people" is just plain dumb. I've never said that nor even thought about it. Your question doesn't have any merit. Especially in this section ghetto boy.

How do you know where everyone has been? How do you know if i have been in the ghetto or not?

Seriously people you need to THINK before you ask questions!

saw a white boy a few days ago in Bayside Queens with a t-shirt that read "I'm ghetto are you." That little pansy wouldn't know ghetto if he drove though one. Which he'll never do.

No I think of the ghetto in terms of Auschwitz. Not a place you want to go. Not a word I use, nor would I want to live in one.
