because people believe racism is white over balck/indian/chinese etcetc and not the ostracization or insulting or generally stereotyping a person based on their supposed place of origin. The problem is in western countries where white was/is a majority people believe that its ok for other minorites to use sterotypes against the majority rather than call a spade a spade racism is not acceptable coming from anybody including your own race I don't like the word commie russia was a long time empire before it was a communist state but people have a need to use labels. I have a new label how about calling someone by their name? Mine's Natashya!

To 'Kerryannb' saying that 'Scarlet 10'; comment about this person being "obviously non-white" (see above, 1st and second posts). This person is probably white! In my experiences, the white-midle class people (or the posh/snobs) are ususally the very people who label and call white working class people 'white trash', and ' racists'. White middle class people are at the heart of this nation's politcally correct nonsense

She's a star so she has a following and a fan base her mother doesn't, she does not care and I dont want to, go like this, it was reffered to her, they bought up the word white trash and I dont want to bring that up, and I wouldn't call her that because shes a human being.

Jermaine is simply anrgy at those girls, because of their constant abuse at Shelpa. Come on now, would you be sitting there and watch Shelpa in tears? No! He doesn't mean it in a racial way, he is highly spiritual and sometimes there is a point where people like us break down and say things that cannot explain as to why those girls acted that way. So with anger, he had to say something which is not spiritual! Hope this helps.

Referring to the colour of any ones skin is classed as racist even if the word is followed by trash and not a foul word..I remember hearing this and thinking why as no-one questioned him about it? no good one rule for one and one for another that's why nothing ever gets resolved!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

you lot don't even know the meaning of the word!!
White trash is a term mainly used by white people, it's like redneck or trailer trash. They still refer to generally to white people, just because the word "white" is in doesn't mean all of a sudden it is racist to say it.
If he was racist he would be saying, "white bast*** " or white so and so, not white trash.

because nobody thinks calling a white person anything to do with their colour is wrong
but its just as wrong as calling a black person or any other race
