You call me a red neck and you can be any color of the rainbow, Im not gonna be happy but Im also not gonna burn down the city.
You USE the word red neck in a sentence not intended to be hateful, as you just did, again I don't care what color you are it would not upset me at all. But it's really NOT about the word...it's about white people using the word even if it's to talk about how bad the word is to blacks...it can never come out of a white persons mouth
