Are some racial demographic groups more likely to litter than others?

It seems like the answer is yes, but I'd like to hear what y'all have to say about it.

I think it has to do with economic class more than anything.

Poor white trash litter more than any other group. One factoer is all the trash in the back of their pickup truck blowing out

agree with the others...socio-economic status would certainly influence that behavior. I doubt that one group is more genetically inclined to litter than another.

Yeah, poor white trash, poor black trash, poor brown trash, poor yellow trash, poor red trash, poor green trash, poor blue trash, and I'm sure there are a few other poor "insert color here" trash I'm missing.

The litter in North BR is awful but I agree with the previous comments. It's probably more socioeconomic than anything

Depends on how they are raised. I've met slobs and neat freaks of all races.

Basically if ya mama and daddy was trashy more than likely you will be and your kids will probably be and so on and so forth

I'm as white as can be and spent the first 7 years of my life in rural Louisiana back in the mid 70's. My parents used to roll down the car window and throw trash out all the time, like drink cans or trash from a finished fast food meal, and think nothing of it. Then, that Indian who was always crying started showing up on TV telling people not to litter and they stopped doing it.

Race isn't a factor.

Poorly educated people that grew up as latch key kid are most likely to litter.

Ever walked around LSU Sunday after an LSU game? Southern?

Trashy people are trashy regardless of race.

Trashy, lazy, and poor are three sides of the same triangle.

It's trash vs not trash groups, not racial.

Same goes for putting the grocery carts back in their parking spots.

I'm looking at 4 Modelo and 2 Coronas littered around the pool currently. And a Popeyes cup.

I don't think it's a certain racial demographic. It's more of a class inside every demographic. The trashier they are, the trashier they will be.
