Re: pic: The Fighting Rednecks

I happen to agree with Jane. I don't really believe that the word "redneck" is giving off the proper aura. I would consider it a deragatory term. Using a deragatory term such as this also opens up other terms that are widely used, but considered more offensive, to be up for use with such the same agruments as this one. As a mexican, I'm really against stereotypical terms such as "beaner" and can relate to what Jane has said.

Does this name meet FIRST rules? It can be offensive to some people as has been proven so far.

Just a thought, Why not something like The Fighting Farmers or The Rural Agitators. lol
