I just use that term loosley to describe this class of bottom feeders.

Not to offend anyone, but i have heard the exact same argument using "nigger" instead of "white trash". Perhaps you could find a word to describe said "bottom feeder" class that doesn't imply a link between race and behavior.
Also, maybe i missed the part in the article where they broke down the SES of the woman in question. Certainly one could assume that she is poor, but i fail to see how that is even relevant. I fail to see how "bottom feeding" even comes into play.
And irseg:
She isn't your mom, but she could be. She is, in fact, a mother of two. She is somebody's mom. Perhaps you should choose your words more wisely. You probably wouldn't appreciate some random person on the internet, who knows very little about you or your family, calling your mom a bunch of filthy names.
