I have seen two in the past 5 years or so in Lancaster county, SC. One before dawn & the other one late in the afternoon. Almost hit one of them on my way home from work.

I don’t think the term “red neck” changes meanings based exclusively on party lines. Growing, up, when you called any of us farm boys a “red neck,” you better be prepared to fight and I assure you, none of those households were “the left.” If anything, geography has as much, if not more to do with its changing meaning as party lines. Like I said, growing up, to be called a red neck was a catalyst for a fight but when I moved to SC and saw people with it proudly displayed on their vehicles and clothing, it took some getting used to. Even after all these years living here, I still have to check myself if someone calls me or any of my friends a red neck because I realize they don’t mean anything by it.

Maybe I should have used a northern term of disrespect? Only in recent years around here has “red Neck” taken on a derogatory term. Maybe the Northern influence? I used the left because that is my perception. Where are you from that being called a “red neck” would have made you fight someone?

It could be a generational thing too.

I was born in MD and us farm boys didn’t take kindly to being called a red neck, still don’t for that matter. Even though I’ve lived here in SC for the majority of my life now, I guess some old habits die hard. “Country Boy” and/or “Farm Boy” were looked at in the same manner as those down here see “red neck.” Typically the words “red neck” were accompanied by the word “ignorant” so the connotation was always negative in nature.

I can agree with that. I still hold dear to my old ways and raising, but I do realise that things change. I’m finding it harder and harder to have patience teaching/training some of our younger kids… I miss the yes sir/no sir and respect for elders that was so prevalent in my youth. Not saying we don’t have some good kids coming up, because we do. No a days just too many are more interested in playing on a phone and social media than performing a duty.

I’m in the lowcountry generation where the rebel flag was not a symbol of hate, just Southern Pride and a true love for life and liberty.

I don’t know if you realize this, Fred, but the forums on CF.com are a form of social media. If my math is correct, having close to 13,000 posts would be the equivalent of posting everyday for almost 35 years!

The cat-like animal was later spotted doing 7 pushups in the forest…

There are no Eastern Cougars in South Carolina… sorry, just not. You don’t see them on trail cameras, they are never hit by cars and they obviously never die because they leave no skeletons.

You people who have seen things are sadly mistaken… I wish we did have them but some redneck would certainly shoot it “in self defense…”
