she could have done.. But I'm so fed up of this attitude so many people seem to have - 'you spilt some water on me, therefore I need to punch you in the face/stab you'

someone as lary as that as a Chav. I know the term has class connotations that I'm not totally at ease with either, but it does unfortunately describe the mindset of some people.

it's not classist or racist.
It's about aggressive scum who think it's ok to intimidate folk and behave brainlessly.

as long as they go around threatening people with knives, getting into fights for no reason and generally act like cunts, yes they are.

people tend to go away with the impression upon seeing a group of people that they all acted like the loudest members in that group did. All stereotypes thus come from loud people.
Loud people are all dicks.
I know a couple of "chavs" who are perfectly decent people. They dress that way because their contempories do. As most people do, to some extent.

however if more of that type of person comes from one group than another then they will be typecast
