[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I walk my neighborhood in Rockville and pick up trash every single day. It's disgusting. This is what happens when you bring different cultures together quickly, though. People also don't pick up their dog's poop. I do it for them because I hate looking at it and at empty Taco Bell bags and wrappers chucked out the window. I miss it when people thought littering was unacceptable.[/quote] I think you and others in this thread are being incredibly intolerant. At the OP correctly pointed out, our communities are welcoming havens for people of many cultural backgrounds; this is what makes our communities so rich and vibrant. For you (and others) to impose your westernized expectations on others is incredibly culturally-insensitive. [/quote] I for one love the “westernized expectations” of cleanliness. As someone who moved out of one of those dirty third country ghettos, I appreciate clean streets and picked up trash. I hope all of my other rich and vibrant fellow immigrants to adopt this westernized, cultural norm of cleanliness. What’s really funny to me is that some of you tolerant folks don’t think us immigrants are smart enough or cultured enough to learn to pick up after ourselves. [/quote]
