Leon, I've met rednecks in Jersey. Everyone should see the Pine Barrens to get a different perspective on Jersey. South Jersey has a lot of farms and rural areas. Some of the people are even nice! Honestly,😁.
Sitting at a delivery in Westerm Massachusetts 30 years ago. A guy parks his pickup, goes in, and comes out with several guys. To look at the gobbler he just killed. He had taken the morning off, stopped by work to show off. Strolled over to look, chatted him up. Turkey season was a new thing for that area, he was as happy as a pig in poop!
Blackheads, Craigslist, earlybird,
I'd 10 times rather have those neighbors than wannabe rednecks with money. Grew up with and among such folk, call some kin. Most of the time if you treat them well, you are in like Flynn and have the most loyal of friends. Most of the time.
They know who they are, but do have pride. If you take them for who they are, they appreciate it.
I know who they are and what they're about. Lived around here my whole life. They're lazy, dumb and dirty. No thanks. I've got enough friends of better quality.
Reminds me of Carols brother! 😀 Years ago on the first day of buck season it was around 50*. Dad, Dave and I were in the garage cleaning a couple that we shot early in the morning. So Danny pulls in with his pickup. He comes in and drags us out to see the 8 point his new wife had killed! “That’s great Dan. Tell Karen congratulations. As warm as it is, bring it in and we’ll take care of it.” But he wanted to ride to someone else’s place to show off her buck!😀 Things like that is another reason I like to do my own butchering. That evening we were watching the news, and they were showing vid of a butcher shop in Johnstown. People were lined up with deer they’d taken. Quite a few of them hadn’t even been field dressed!😒 When it warm like that, we get them cleaned up quickly, and get the meat cooled out right away. I’ve even taken a couple gallon jugs of ice along on really warm days to put inside the cavity should I get lucky. The sooner you get them taken care of, the better.

Hillbilly, hick, redneck north of the mason dixon…I’ll answer to any complimentary term as such. Hell even white trash with money! I’m from a holler, left the holler for my Army years, returned to the holler. Still hunt and fish and cut wood in that holler…but live on a hilltop about 7 hollers over from it. Unapologetically country as hell, and ain’t changing for nuthin. 😎
I love it. I was working in Johnstown, driving 30 miles one way. A couple friends asked me why I live out where I live. “What do you get outta driving so far if you need something”? My reply was that I drive a ways for work and groceries and beer, but I can shoot my rifle from the deck and I can walk a half mile or so to go hunting. A man’s gotta have his priorities straight.

Ran into a rancher in Wyoming…. North or South….if you were from E of the Missouri he thought you odd. He thought I dressed funny. I thought his slicker and pearl buttons were a little strange myself.
We hunted together for a week…. And ended up as friends.
That Sir... is very very often the case.
Many a man here is odd to me... as I am odd to them... but the core values we each hold... are above all of that.
If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.
