If they make it through their stints in gen pop, I bet the Brentwood Police Dept. would still take 'em.

I've honestly never liked Baldwin, Brentwood, Whitehall, Munhall, Whitaker or West Mifflin. It's all 1950s and 1960s suburbia at its worst, and not just the built environment either. I've always gotten a weird vibe down that way.

Gotta love the "open-mindedness" of some segments of urban liberal opinion. :-)

Political trolling... how refreshing. Can't criticize some white folks without them bringing identity politics into it. Ha!

(Next thing you know, we'll be talking about "yinzers")

It's all good. Nothing wrong with yinzing. It happens every day, here.

So now we can't call trashy-acting white people "white trash"; "rednecks"; OR "yinzers". I can deal with that.

What do we call such people, then, so as not to offend anyone on this sub-forum who sympathizes with trashy-acting white people? The "untouchables"?
