One might even argue that "white trash" is racist toward blacks, because it implies that blacks are expected to be trash, while whites who are trash are the notable exception.

Odd. "White Trash" to me was always as Forest Gump says: Trash is as trash does."

Trash is trash and nobody is immune regardless of color, shape or national idiocy.
