I thought you might like this. I am apparently a Redneck. How about you?

This is very good!  Not the type of redneck jokes we hear.

We have enjoyed the redneck jokes for years. It's time to take a reflective look at the core beliefs of a culture that values home, family, country and God.
If I had to stand before a dozen terrorists who threaten my life, I'd choose a half dozen or so rednecks to back me up. Tire irons, squirrel guns and grit -- that's what rednecks are made of. I hope I am one of those. and I Pray that you feel the same..
.
You might be a redneck if: It never occurred to you to
be offended by the phrase, 'One nation, under God..'

You might be a redneck if: You've never protested about seeing the 10 Commandments posted in public places.

You might be a redneck if: You still say ' Christmas' instead of 'Winter Festival.'

You might be a redneck if: You bow your head when someone prays.

You might be a redneck if: You stand and place your hand over your heart when they play the National Anthem

You might be a redneck if: You treat our armed forces veterans with great respect, and always have.

You might be a redneck if: You've never burned an
American flag, nor intend to.

You might be a redneck if: You know what you believe and you aren't afraid to say so, no matter who is listening.

You might be a redneck if: You respect your elders and raised your kids to do the same.

You might be a redneck if: You'd give your last dollar to a friend.

I posted this because I believe that you, like me, have just enough Red Neck in you to have the
same beliefs.

God Bless the USA !

Keep the fire burning, redneck friend.

IF YOU DON'T STAND BEHIND OUR TROOPS FEEL
FREE TO STAND IN FRONT OF THEM.

IN GOD WE TRUST!

I AM PROUD TO BE A RED NECK......

Still summer, but found and patted gently into the ground, less red for you, Jimi.  Squirrels are burying nuts now.

Well I said yes to all but one, I did burn an American flag once but only because it was past serviceable and that is the correct way to dispose of a flag that is no longer usable but I have never burned one in protest and never will. Have to say I may not look like a redneck but if this is what it takes to be one then I am dam proud to be a redneck. :)

Shortly followed by " shoot that wernt nuttin, Hold my beer"

The origins of the term redneck actually go back to the 1930's in a number of disputes in West Virginia. A large group of unionized miners marched south to Logan County, to pressure the mine owners there to allow their miners to become unionized. To identify themselves, the miners all wore red bandannas around their necks. The publicity associated with the battles and the subsequent court cases created the term red-necks, and at that time they were viewed as the good guys in the conflict.

FDR voters, almost all.

    Very nice post, Mz. Luv. I do believe that I have a good bit of that redneck blood in me, also.

Mike

P.S. Let us know if you find out your jewish, too.   ;)  ;D

Linda,
Actually, the term goes back further than that.  For many years (and even now, to some extent), redneck was a derogatory term.  It is now being reclaimed as a positive *label*.

By 1900, "rednecks" was in common use to designate the political coalitions of the poor white farmers in the South.  Indeed, by 1910, the political supporters of the Mississippi politician James K. Vardaman--chiefly poor white farmers—began to describe themselves proudly as "rednecks," even to the point of wearing red neckerchiefs to political rallies and picnics.

Do we have any *real* Southerners here?
