I live in the northern United States so why do I keep seeing flag waving rednecks everywhere?

Answer 1

You don't have to be Southern to be stupid... but it helps. Some northerners use the Confederate battle flag to tell the world, "I'm a rebel!" but they do so ignorantly. They need to remember what it is that the South was rebelling against: the abolition of slavery. And a lot of people died to put a stop to what that flag represented. I say if you lose the war, you don't get to fly your flag anymore! The Swastika flag is ILLEGAL in Germany.

Answer 2

I live up north, too. What do you mean by flag waving rednecks?
What kind of flag? And, where is it being waved?

Or, are you an intolerant Yankee? Your way or the highway?

My neighbor next door has several flags he flies at certain times during the year. He flies the Canadian flag on July 1st, the French flag on July 14, the Union Jack on the Queen's birthday and on July 18th (The Battle of Waterloo)

Does that make him a redneck, too?

Answer 3

I don't know but i'm from the South (Georgia) and I hope they stay up there. I think it's so disrespectful to the north and the south. The civil war is over, it was horrible, lots of people died on both sides, I had family who fought and died during the civil war but this is a new day....Our country is divided on so many other issues, let's get rid of those stupid flags and remember that we're ONE NATION under ONE FLAG. Of course just getting rid of their flag won't help their attitude and the way they think. I'm just going to pray for rednecks everywhere to stop embarrassing themselves and all of us who have to live down south with em.

Answer 4

Rednecks is a crude name calling.
Most Southerners are very sweet and kind people.
They like waving there flags maybe to prove that they love being southern, I don't know. ... some of my children married Southerners, so I had to get used to their ways, as they had to get used to our northern ways.
It's a give and take and appreciate others values and gifts, world.
enjoy it, or complain about it, it's up to you.
