I really don't appreciate he tone of those that are stooping to calling names and stereotyping those that arent going to suck up to the antis and the politically correct looloos! I have complied for years with the practice of concealing my kill, but the political correctness has gone on long enough, and I deliberately displayed my latest kill--ON MY HITCH HAUL BEHIND MY JEEP!!!I do not fit into any of the categories that you dissenters have so articulately described. I am a college graduate, graduating suma cum laude, and own my own business, and live in the rural mountain area of N Georgia. I am no more a red neck than Hillary is a conservative!! A red neck has nothing to do with driving pick ups--which , aside frommy Jeep Cherokee, I own 2 3/4 ton 4w drives--or listening to country music, living in a trailer, ad nauseum! Talk about cityfied!! Stereotyping is the worst form of prejudice! RED Neckis a state of mind--usually consisting of people that are ignorant--not ignorance from schooling , or the lack thereof--but ignorance of reality! People are the same, regardless of how you want to label them--deep down.My motivation for displaying my buck was to protest the sickening onslaught of the foolish direction we are taking in this country morally and ethically--removing the 10 commandments, the use of the words Merry Christmas, calling a Christmas tree a Mt Holly tree, etc.!! I am fed up with catering to this mind set, and going around cowering--afraid of offending someone who thinks differently or has a different value system. Retreat is not the answer, but education is--educating and defending what you stand for without apology or offense. True tolerance means allowing someone to be different without attacking or belittling--which is the red neck method.I know where I stand and I know what I believe, and the passivity and whitewashing of everything that this country was established to provide is getting to be a joke. I drove through downtown Atlanta, and stopped fro fuel in a suburb and got one negative reaction from a girl about 20 who was driving a SUV--just like I was. In fact, I got many thumbs up and waves and drew a crowd at the gas station--of admirers of my deer. It had nothing to do with any inadequacies or deficiencies or insecurities on my part. I mad a statement--I am no longer going to tippy toe through life, apologizing for legitimate, well established and healthy pursuits. Gays are coming out of the closets and we're running into them for crying out loud!!!!!!!
HERE HERE!
I'll toast to that !
Manuman for pres !
