Subject: Fwd: You might be a Redneck !! Very Different!!
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 (and those of us who believe we have the right to
bear arms in the protection of our way of life and our family).
I am one of those. If you feel the same, pass this on to your redneck friends.
Y'all know who ya are

the 10 Commandments posted in public places.
You might be a redneck if: You still say ' Christmas'

someone prays.
You might be a redneck if: You stand and place your

veterans with great respect, and always have.
You might be a redneck if: You've never burned an
American flag, nor intend to. (Except as part of a proper flag disposal!)
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.
Some of you are so old you don't have elders to respect.
You might be a redneck if: You'd give your last dollar to
a friend.
You might be a redneck if: You believe in God & Jesus
and believe that others have the right to believe in which
ever God they believe in as long as their God does not
tell them to kill anyone who does not believe the same
as they do!!!!!
If you got this email from me, it is because I believe that
you, like me, have just enough Red Neck in you to have the
same beliefs as those talked about in this email.
God Bless the USA !

What a gratuitous load of insular crap.
This whole missive is basically a christian fundamentalist rant exhorting pining for a theocracy, and using the meme that only US-born southerners of english/scots/irish ancestry are "real" 'murkins as the hook to tug at the reader.
Pablum drek for racist White People who feel sorry for Clippers owner Donald Sterling & big-time moocher/taker Cliven Bundy.
"You still say ' Christmas'
instead of 'Winter Festival.'"
This is the first time I've heard the terminology 'Winter Festival.' Bogus.
Equally as stupid and boring as that nonsense '50s nostaligia video that was posted last week. Boring bigots are boring.
Typically makes it seem like only rednecks (ie, rightwing bigots who mostly live in the south) have "good values."
A lot, not all, of the qualities listed can be ascribed to people from many different racial, ethnic, religious, etc, backgrounds, including people who live in other countries.
What's the point of this drivel? To make bigots feel better about themselves? Why do rightwingers need something like this to endorse them, their viewpoints, beliefs and choices? Are they that insecure?
"You know what you believe and you aren't afraid to say so, no matter who is listening."
Actually, if you could just shut the fuck up on this one, you wouldn't be universally scorned by the rest of the country.
More cowbell.... er... I mean Thomas Kinkade!
