It's all in the definition. I agree with you - white trash types aren't the same as rednecks or hillbillies. Rednecks tend to have working class values, often the hardest working people you could ever meet. White trash are what you see on Jerry Springer, most are welfare dependent.
A redneck might want to drive a nice truck and a truck is a good work vehicle but white trash can't afford a nice truck because their welfare checks go to alcohol and pot and meth.
So I could find many "white trashers" in the south side of Chicago?

For example, on this forum, I can immediately tell who is WT and who isn't and it has nothing to do with their political or religious affiliation. For example, there is a difference between the conservatives who are critical of Obama and don't support him and the people who think Obama is a racist and wasn't born in the United States. I wouldn't label the former as being WT even though they are conservatives. I do consider the latter to be a part of this WT culture[/quote]
IMHO this statement above contradicts itself in what you believe and how you feel. If you have problems with white people or dislikes just say so and move on...don't try to pull Obama and beliefs into your own racist white trash agenda!

How are we supposed to pick out the Jared Lee Loughners ? The OP seems delusional , hateful and unable to get along with others.

OK, putting the whole WT thang aside for just a moment, I think it is fair to say that there is a certain "cultural" association among the many folks here with certain "attitudes" re: things like "Patriotism" and the "Flag", a "strong military", "education", a distrust of "outsiders" and "elites", along with a general preference for a more "independent" and "rural" lifestyle.
So yeah, everybody's got different political opinions, but the values of one's "culture" and ancestry have a lot to do with it too. It might be reflected in a choice of words or certain "hot button" issues, but sometimes I think you can pickup on those kinda things.
