"Redneck" a racial/ethnic slur

[przero]

I find here lately the use of the term "redneck" to be a racial/ethnic slur along the lines of say, the "N" word, or the "D" word, etc. I have e-mailed the mods to protest this terms use, to no avail. Now is it's use allowed because we by nature are white? that would be racially motivated. Would I be banned for using the "N" word, yet not the "R" word? That would seem to be a travesty of free speech. What's up? You guys gonna' let one slide and not the other? Bear in mind I don't mind the term, but what is at issue here is fairness. I say use all the terms or use none. What is the rule?

Hey I'm a Redneck Pale Faced Honkey Cracker. You want to make something out of it you PC whiny toad?

Red I know what you are, and it ain't you I'm complaining about. I'm proud to be a Redneck, but if they gonna' use the term use it lovingly or let's use'em all! trust me - PC I ain't!

Well when the time comes when we can look to our past and truly say that we were discriminated against like some of the other minorities have been then maybe I'll become offended about being called a Redneck.Until then I see complaionts like yours are just whining and sniveling.

Lovingly refer to a redneck, huh? Do the rest of ya'll get a warm fuzzy feeling?

Hey, cry me a river about the other minorities. Let's talk about today and fairness. I don't mind being called anything, but I demand the right to return the favor. You see what I'm getting at? I am sick and tired of all the PC. Neither you nor or have any right not to be offended. Never have, never will. That's all I am saying. Now I want these guys to take a stand one way or the other.

Stand down piss ant. Your PC sniveling makes me want to puke!

Open the toilet first there big guy. I love the way you use insults. I did not throw any your way. A simple discussion/ dialogue was all I entreated. You wanna' make it pissin' contest have at it? But I hate a battle of wits with an unarmed man1

You might be a redneck if...

...you mod a computer into the back of a rusty old '70's pickup truck with a shotgun rack on the back window.

Edit: And what's the big deal anyway? You're not a redneck, after all, if you know a Macintosh from a TV.
