Or nice jewelry or have rims on their car. Don't complain about being poor if you're not gonna use your money responsibly. Maybe there's a reason they're poor, mismanagement of funds. I say this again, people of all races do this.
I totally agree [pic]

So you payed for her groceries?

But yea reminds me of a time this nicca came up begging for money to get something to eat...at that time I must have been more compassionate and offered to buy lunch at tacobell...this !! nicca said I don't like taco bell can we go to McDonalds...[pic]

!! that !! man u must not be starving. Another time someone came up asking if I could buy them gas so they could make it home. I just told him I didn't have any cash on me. [pic]

You're riding around in the parking lot asking people for gas money when you could be making your way to the house. [pic]

And why would a stranger ask someone to buy them groceries. They need to budget, stay within the !!ing budget or put something back! I had something similar happen to me. Some !! asked me to pay for her !!. I thought, you came to Wal-mart to shop with no intentions of paying for it yourself? !! outta here. You gotta a better chance of shoplifting then getting money outta me for that !!.

these people claim to be non-racist, yet they said it "just doesn't look right" and take the time to call and/or email the woman who wrote the story.

It's more whites on welfare in America, you don't think they have ipads, ps3s, and rims? Wake up!

Ever seen the documentary The Wonderful Whites of West Virginia? They can make that same movie in all 50 states. Look at how they spend their welfare.

Shoot-outs, robberies, gas-huffing , drug dealing, pill popping, murks, and tap dancing - what do these all have in common? These are just a few of the parts of being a member of the Wild and Wonderful White Family.

Sad to say but I have to agree with you. Out of all the poor people in this country I'd say only 1 in 20 are actually poor. The rest are just lazy bums gaming the system. It sucks being middle class. !! feels like every day we are fighting an unwinnable war against the rich and the poor. Though this article was clearly some bull!! racism, most people living off the system are white or latino, white people just do a better job of hiding it than blacks.

No what i'm saying is if you buy a 2000 $ car in lew of a 20,000 car you have 18,000 $ to do what you want with. That's why you don't really see jags in the projects with rims you see old cars

People sayin its about race, if this hada been a picture of a little white kid in front of a trailer, or even sittin in the same spot in front of the same house would this have been and thread? Would this picture of even got taken? I think most of you know the answer to that question.
