‘Murica!
A Tennessee couple- Dave and Rebecca Kosmitis both bona fide rednecks, had 9 children. They went to the doctor to see about getting Dave “fixed”. The doctor gladly started the required procedure and asked them what finally made them make the decision. Why, after 9 children, would they choose to do this? Dave replied that they had read in a recent article that 1 out of every 10 children being born in the United States was Mexican, and they didn’t want to take a chance on having a Mexican Baby because neither of them could speak Spanish.
Do you like to hunt and fish, drive a huge pick-up truck or wear camouflage six out of seven days a week? Do you have a gun in every room of your house, “chew” or “dip” and relate to country music? Can you fix absolutely anything with duct tape, or is your first-born named after anyone who has ever been a NASCAR driver? If you answered yes to two or more you might be a member of the group of people we call “rednecks”. Regular people all over the country are surrounded every day by gun-toting, cowboy boot-wearing, country bumpkins.
Prior to Honey Boo Boo, I thought they were just a myth. But no, these outcasts of our country do exist, and they’re spreading rapidly. The media is so intrigued and so fascinated by our Budweiser-holding buddies that an uproar of shows, movies, books, and camo-colored accessories are being intertwined with our nation. When I was in kindergarten, another child scribbling a scarlet marker on the collar of someone’s shirt was as close to a redneck as we knew. Now, I can’t socialize with some of my JoCo friends because they watch four-hour marathons about duck hunting.
Honey Boo Boo, Duck Dynasty, Moonshiners, Buckwild and plenty other shows are spreading the “gooder-then-grits” life of a redneck. Political, media, religious and a bunch of other public leaders in their political correctness, cannot bring themselves to utter the word "redneck." So
