Why do ppl use the word "ghetto" out of context?

It is not out of context is you are loud and rude you are ghetto to me it is used also for whites or any race that acts that way! You know also just cause you are from the ghetto don't make you a ghetto person but if you have a nasty attitude then yes YOU are!

Ghettos in occupied Europe 1939-1944 were established by the Nazis to confine Jews and sometimes Gypsies into tightly packed areas of the cities of Eastern Europe, turning them into concentration camps and death camps in the Holocaust. To use the word in reference to anything else would be using it out of context (in my opinion), but these days many words are used as general terms, such as "Cool" or "Hot". To say Ghetto is merely referring to the inhumane, unorganised, downright cheap aspects of things. as for the loud girl. The word must have evolved to hold an even broader meaning than before.

Yeah, it's all ghetto nowadays. Even ppl here in lil villages in Germany who walk around with their baseball caps sideways say they're from 'da ghetto' nowadays

The Original meaning of "Ghetto" has to do with Jews during the Hitler period.

These days Ghetto describes "a place" (poor place) and "a person's character". Honestly to me if someone is really loud with a huge attitude..the word ghetto comes to my mind!

ghetto is a very broad term which covers everything from a poverty stricken neighborhood, to the slang meaning, ignorant, poor, derelict, sub-standard, etc

Ghetto is loud black people dressing hip hop and talking ebonics. Any other race who emulates this behavior is also Ghetto.

To me "ghetto" is what all Americans are no matter what race.

in the black dialect co-opted by teenage morons any word can mean any thing

In today's culture:

Ghetto = black
