THIS IS THE "GOOD" KIND OF REDNECK TO BE

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. If you feel the same, pass this on to your redneck friends. Ya'll know who ya' are...

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 Viet Nam vets with great respect, and always have.

You might be a redneck if: You've never burned an American flag.

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 expect your kids to do the same.

You might be a redneck if: You'd give your last dollar to a friend.
I guess I'm a Redneck afterall! Irish

".....to all the redneck girls like me.... HELL YA!

Everyone of those applies to me!

As a thought,recently,I was watching "Country Outlaws".A compilation of
country songs,sung by what has been known as country outlaws.Gretchen
Wilson,of "Redneck Women" fame,sang a duet with Hank Williams JR.It was called "Outlaw Women".I have been riding & racing motorcycles(Also building
& customizing)for over 45yrs.You wouldn't believe the memories,that song brought back of some of the women,that hung out & rode with the guys!
Irish
P.S.Sorry,most are probably not interested,but it really flooded back good memories.

i am a a redneck for sure and so are my parents. i like your "You Might Be A Redneck If.." phrases. They almost made me cry. Those phrases just hit a tender spot with me.

but thank you for the compliments to my.. uh .. "culture". Dont want to offend anyone by calling rednecks a race. so culture is the best word i can come up with.

just the mention of the songs "Redneck Woman" and "Outlaw Women" brought back wonderful memories for me.

Just a reminder that the values aren't exclusively American.

Many of us in far-off lands share the basic philosophy, if not the same flag.
