Are all poor people worthless hood rats?

I had a friend she lives in the ghetto, sleeps around with drugged up unemployed drunks %26amp; acts really mean so i put her in her place by calling her a hood rat, she no longer talks to me, did i do the right thing?


btw we met @ work as i live in the nice part of town %26amp; am educated.Are all poor people worthless hood rats?
No they're not and you sound really stuck up.Are all poor people worthless hood rats?
Are you serious? Who are you to judge her? are you perfect? Have you tried to get her help before you put her down. Oh so you live in a nice part of town. Did you always? I lived in the ghetto and you know what, that was the best darn years of my life cause it taught me to appreciate everything that I have now. I have a high school diploma. But you know what, I have a Federal Government job that pays better than all the people i know who have a college degree. and education doesn't mean a thing because in this economy, even people with degrees are finding it hard to get a job. So, before you judge, you need to ask yourself why are you so special. Cause you're only 1 paycheck from being homeless and living in the hood or ghetto yourself.
I would have put her in her place too, but I would have used different words. I think you hurt her deeply. She may not have any choice but to live where she does, and it sounds like her self esteem is poor so she is attracted to people who she thinks makes her feel ';good'; but really are bringing her down.





No poor people are not worthless hood rats... I think there are situations people are put in against their wishes but have to make do with what they have. I was poor when I was a single mom of 2, but now I do things to help those less fortunate than I.
No...some of us are well-read, well-educated hood rats. %26gt;_%26lt; Thank you very much!





Did it ever occur to you, Gentle Asker (note the sarcasm) that sometimes, people might have, oh, a problem or two, like being born to a messed-up family, or having health problems? Did it ever occur to you that the human beings around you *might have good reasons* for not being able to work as much as they'd like to? I would humbly recommend a book for you, _Nickeled and Dimed_, about a rich woman's experimentation with trying to live on Wal-Mart's wages, but you're not as literate as you think you are.





';I'; as a word is always capitalized. That's a nice run-on sentence you have going there as well, and if you're going to declare yourself ';educated'; the least you could do is *spell out* ';by the way'; and ';at';. Not to nit-pick but that seems to be your primary language.





Nice troll, by the way. I hope you and yours have a Merry Christmas....if you can live with yourselves.
Everyone is a product of their raising. How is she to know anything different? It's probably not a great idea to hang out with her because that kind of life style (which is the only one that she knows...which is not her fault) is obviously not a good one, and obviously not something that you want to be involved with. I'm sure that if she had some type of say in the way that she was raised or the atmosphere that she was raised in, she wouldn't have picked the situation that she is in.


Be glad that you are living in a nice part of town, but what you need to be more educated in is the fact that we are all human. She undoubtedly has a lot of anger and has had a lot more hard times than you have had..


You should always take the high road, and never judge someone until you've been in their shoes.
Well, it was sort of mean. You could have said you were worried about her behavior and that maybe she should act more responsibly or she might end up with AIDS or something, but now she feels insulted. She was acting sleazy, but you could have told her in a more tactful way. Not all poor people are worthless, some might be artists or may just be stepping out onto the work force.
I wouldn't say they're all rats. I mean, there are millions of homeless people around the world, some because they couldn't afford to keep their homes, and some being teens and children because the parents kicked them out. I feel sorry for a lot of them, and I constantly think of ways in which I could make a change to it. And you said you worked with her.... so, she should be paid just as well as you are getting paid.... so does that make you one too? YOU WORK(ED) AT THE SAME PLACE!
don't stereotype..all poor people are not worthless hood rats..and really if she were your friend as you say..you should never have called her that. I'm just saying there were better ways to handle that..although you were probably angry with her and frustrated at the same time so you weren't thinking. I can see both sides.
yea that was pretty mean and very conceited of you





im poor, that doesnt mean im a bad person, im educated and live in a fairly nice part of town, dont you ever assume that im a hood rat


people cant help where they grew up anymore than you can help being a b*tch
well i`m not rich or anything and i guess you`d call me poor but i don`t live in trash or anything like that and i`m not a whore.. people i see who are like that i think can do better. to be honest that`s just trash in my opinion. but to answer your question no i dont think you were wrong.
eww u sound really ignorant





people like you really disgust me





not everyone who lives in the ';hood'; is a ';hoodrat';





you sound like a piece of **** and ughh I can't belive people like you live!! and p.s this just shows that your not educated
Do you drive a beamer? Live in a 500k house in a suburban nieghborhood five feet from the next 500k house? Did you go to an ivy league college? Who the f#$% are you to judge people? Who the F@#$ ARE YOU?
You met at work?





She's uneducated and lives in the ghetto....and you're educated and live in a nice house?





AND YOU WORK AT THE SAME PLACE?





Joke's on you!





.
money, or lack thereof doesn't indicate a person's worth, it's their ingnorance, arrogance and bad attitude that does
You're really ignorant, and probably a hood rat.
no they are not, she probally couldn't help that she's poor


what if you were poor would you want her to call you that !!!!!!!
You sound like an ignorant snob to me. Not everyone is lucky enough to be born into a privileged life.
Considering the question you just asked, I doubt you are educated.
Being poor doesn't mean anything, there are worthless rich


people as well, just look at Hollywood!
makes the nights easier ... btw .. are all rich people stuck up narcissists? .. and are all middle class people idiots that think they're rich people??
you should make up with her and try to help her not put her done it will only make her worst.
If she was your friend then why did you call her that name? you are suppose to be there to support her and show her kindness.
you guys sound real close
You hood rat
No they aren't.I've known some poor educated people.
i think your a worthless hood rat for talking like that


just a thought
no


ma mum is not a worthless hood rat %26gt;_%26lt;
no der not actually sumtimes i fink rich diks r wors!
It's not a nice thing to tell someone the truth (what you perceieve as the truth in this situation) but then the truth can also be a realisation for some people.


In a way it's good and bad.


Clearlly atm she is only seeing the negative side to it as she isn't speaking to you, but maybe one day she'll come to terms and realise the positive side of knowing the realisation.





Don't forget, because she's grown up in this ';world'; (ghetto e.t.c) it's her natural way of living.





Don't expect too much from someone.


People are who they are, you can't blaim them for that.
There are levels of poor.... and usually poor people (in my opinion) are only poor b/c they choose to be... (doesn't sound like you were very good friends though, b/c i would never talk to my friends that way)
Good for you. You probably knocked the ghetto out of her.
