Most misused/understood term
What is a redneck? It is funny alot of people group themselves into a category that they actually don't even understand the meaning of. I really never met anyone that claimed to be a redneck that actually knew what one is. Most widely misused today to describe yourself as white trash- nothing more nothing less.
Click on the link below if you still think wearing camo, being uneducated, deer huntin' and coming from the south is the actual definition. I don't have anything against people being any of the above nor am I making fun of anyone- But, most of the self proclaimed "rednecks" I have known thought that was defining criteria.

Interesting link, Ghostgunn. I had always thought that the term 'Redneck' was used to describe a common laborer, one who would get the back of their neck sunburnt from working outdoors in the sun all day. If that were the criteria, then I fit that description to a 'T'! But the whole Scottish dissenter angle is a new one on me! -TD

Many people of the South were proud to be Rednecks.
Georgia Crackers used to drive their cattle into Florida to the sails, they used whips that would make a cracking noise to move the cattle.
The people in Flordia would refer to them as Georgia Crackers.
I did a quick google search on Ga. cracker and it aint postable here but it has to do with whip cracking before the War between the states.
I have often heard that the first music came from Scotland and Ireland.

I've got a redneck joke for y'all:
Two rednecks, Bubba and Earl, were driving down the road drinking a couple of bottles of Bud.
The passenger, Bubba, said, "Lookey thar up ahead, Earl, it's a po-lice roadblock! We're gonna get busted fer drinkin' these here beers!!"
"Don't worry, Bubba," Earl said. "We'll just pull over and finish drinkin' these beers, peel off the label and stick it on our foreheads, and throw the bottles under the seat."
"What fer?" asked Bubba.
"Just let me do the talkin', OK?" said Earl.
Well, they finished their beers, threw the empty bottles under the seat, and each put a label on their forehead.
When they reached the roadblock, the sheriff said, "You boys been drinkin'?" ....
"No sir," Earl said. "We're on the patch."
