Best Answer

It is a crime committed by people from a lower social class, often just for personal gain, like a mugging or armed robbery. This differs from more sophisticated crimes such as embezzlement, which would be committed by people of a higher class on a larger scale and are referred to as white collar crime. Blue collar crime could be by an individual or a gang.
