  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

What is a redneck? i am from uk and have this term a lot but i dont know what it means

Try googling the phrase "you know you're a redneck" and you'll get hundreds of identifying features! :D

Generally it's a derogatory reference to poor white people, usually from the South.

We apply it to ourselves with all the best intentions, of course.

What is a redneck

I have heard the term originated from a derogatory intent toward farmers(very manual labor). (An ID mark would be their "red" necks, from working in the sun all day in the field) but I figure I qualify for membership as a girl from the "Heart of Dixie" if "nuthin" else.
