Here's the thing...
Sterotypes my be rude, but guess what? Sterotypes are usually spot on.
Quick! Think of who you know that doesn't pick up the trash in and around the yard.
Can't think of any? How about neighborhoods you drive through where there are random beer cans, fast food bags, bud light boxes, grocery store bags floating around. Well, that's my neighborhood. If I manage to make it home before dark, I do a corner lot sweep and pick up all the trash that had been dropped, tossed out of a car, or blown into my "white lady" zone.
Yes, I said it, in fact, I usually shout at passing cars that exact sentiment while I'm bending over to snatch up the garbage. "Don't worry, the white lady will get it."
Of course this came after one of my neighbors, who apparently let his 2 year old nephew wander the streets, had the cops show up at his house and he came to me to tell me that I needed to mind my own business, even though I was at work all day and had no clue that this even occurred. He had the nerve to say "you white people are ruining the neighborhood".
