The following criteria for being a "redneck" may seem to apply more to Americans but I think I'd qualify if these were the "only" requirements. How about you? - David
Rednecks Beliefs
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.
Ya'll know who ya' are...
Rednecks...Movin' Up the Ladder
You might be a redneck if:
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.
So, there you have it! Redneck or not? I'm not afraid to admit that I am!
I think I will post these on my refrigerator, on the front porch!
