White Trash   
n.
“Poor people that do not attempt to hide their lack of money. They live in filth (e.g. rusting cars and old kitchen appliances fill the front yard,) they are poorly educated, they don’t care about their appearance (e.g. they are poorly groomed and overweight, wear dirty and tattered clothes,) etc. Though “white trash” can live anywhere, they are indigenous to the Midwestern and southern United States.”

 So, to the esteemed School Committee member I would ask, “to which definition do you ascribe to in your description of Manchester’s “White Trash”?

 There is nothing more disappointing than liberals like Joe Briggs and their elitist world views. I Thank Joe for moving out of Manchester. His departure from City Hall will bring with it one less joke of a local city hall bureaucratic hack in the mix of the nepotistic, politically incestuous, hack-filled halls of city government. I hope Joe certainly won’t let the door hit him in his big ass on the way out. Give him the key to the city and change all the locks.
