Is It True...

...rednecks have more fun?



I tells ya, it's getting to be a badge of honour. Nothing beats back a lefty better than taking ownership of their pathetic weenie slurs and having a blast with 'em.

They were having fun but those fish are not a fun subject. If they make it to the Great Lakes and subsequently into other drainages via rivers and creeks the native fish of North America could become a thing of the past.

All the more reason to make the term "redneck" more respected.

I hope my impression that you are taking this as a joke is wrong. There is much information on this available and here is a small indication of how serious this is.

I know the fish thing is a serious problem, but I do like how the "rednecks" of the world are fighting back. It's become a word that functions the same way as "raaacccist" does.

That "rednecks" have chosen to do something about it while having fun at the same time is pretty good, if you ask me.

On the other hand, it wouldn't be the first time an "invasive" species pushed out or eliminated a native species or was introduced to an area with no natural predator to keep it in check.

America's native people, for example, were darn near wiped out by diseases from the Old World. The horse was introduced to the Americas by the Spanish. Rabbits in Australia, etc., etc., etc., and the jury's still out, but it may have been humans that did in the mammoth and several other large American species of animals after humans arrived in the Western hemisphere. Mother nature is resilient. It's just that she may not do what we humans want done.
