redneck was actually derived from red bandanas that some cole miners from southern West Virginia word around their necks. Big businesses we not giving fair pay, hours, or labor conditions, so they started their own union. The red bandana distinguished who was for their efforts and who was against them.

you can say youre a redneck if;
you still say christmas instead of winter festival
youve never protested about seeing the ten commandment posted in public
you bow youre head when someone prays
you treat Vietnam vets with great respect, and ALWAYS have
youve NEVER burned an american flag
you know what you believe and arent afraid to say so, no matter who is listening
you respect your elder and expect your kids to do the same
youd give your last dollar to a friend

pride not prejudice, only when you can answer with yes to all of the above, can you say "i might be a redneck"

A white person from the south east US who is either rasict, uneducated,poor, or all of the above. It was meant as dergotory but Jeff Foxworthy turned it in to a badge of honor. The word came from confedarte caol miners wearing red bandannas on there necks whil;e they worked NOT FROM A BURNT NECK.
Im not a redneck i didnt like the false definitions thoe. A good example of a redneck is Larry the cable guy.

If your from The Northestern United States where life is highly competitive then a Red Neck is a Patriotic Prig who is also a Racist. He is the enemy with whom all Minorities must contend. And Yankees don't fratinize with the enemy because they take life entirely too seriously.
If you're from The Southeastern United States where Life is generally laid back then a RedNeck is a country hillbilly who minorities feel uncomfortable being around but will work with if they must. It's just too much trouble to keep up with your enemy.

For many Yankees Jeff Foxsworthy is no more a typical Redneck than Richard Pryor was the typical Negroe even when he described himself with the 'N' word. Both are to be regarded only as comedic relief. A true RedNeck was, at one time, George C. Wallace. REMEMBER how the IVY league students greeted him back in the 1960's!
To many Southerners Jeff Foxworthy and the Dukes of Hazard County ARE true RedNecks. All other Conservative Whites is just plain folk.

My definition of Redneck is as follows:
1. A White person who, after a hard day of work and a good homecooked supper reads the ridiculous definitions of redneck on the internet.
2. A White person who is laughing their ass off at redneck criticizers online who have so many typos in their comments, it's almost hysterical, but definitely hypocritical. It's hard to take somebody seriously when they are attacking someone elses intelligence and they can't spell a word themselves.
3. A redneck can hail from any state in the United States. We are NOT relegated to the South. Rednecks laugh and shake their heads when they read things like we sleep with our dads and brothers, because it's almost unheard of, realistically speaking.
4. A redneck can change your oil or your tire with his eyes closed. They don't have to call triple A to come rescue them when their car breaks down, like most city slickers do. They can venture off into the woods and bring home supper, like a real man should be able. Aint nothin' like a fresh killed deer, city folks. Venison is low in fat, for you health conscious yuppies.
5. Rednecks generally have traditional values and are not afraid to say it like they see it. A redneck knows that no black guy would say anti-redneck things to his face. Not with that well stocked gun rack on his jacked up pickup, no sir!
6. "Aint skeered"- two redneck males owned a fireworks stand in the country. 4 black males from NY stopped their Honda and got out to try to rob them. The redneck boys grabbed their shotguns and chased the city boys back to their crappy import and they took off. True story. That is the spirit of the redneck.
7. You're in a bank when a robber walks in with a gun and threatens to blow everyone away. He demands the money and is about to shoot the female teller dead when he suspects she is sounding the alarm. While you liberal gun control freaks are pissing your pants, the redneck takes out his legal concealed pistol and blows the criminal away.
8.Yes, rednecks tend to live in rural areas. We like it this way because we are usually free of Africanus Criminalis.
