Talk about a lot of crap being talked about on Fakebook these last few days. I've never seen so much activity and straight out naming names and making all sorts of claims that couldn't possibly be true. The one funny detail that got a laugh out of me is that according to "sources" the "prominent citizen" mentioned in this thread had a pet goat when he was a kid. I won't even go into what kind of "special relationship" he had with the goat according to "sources" on Fakebook!

He lived next door to his wife's parents and across the street from his parents. It's like that with a bunch of people in Trona. Of course, he seemed to be more interested in his daughter's friends than in family members, but you never know....

Need a little help here to understand. What is a redneck? Asking for a freind.

Redneck is probably one of those "know it when you see it" kind of things. (As you will recall a Supreme Court justice made a similar statement when asked what is pornography.) Redneck is not easily defined, but broadly synonymous to hillbilly and white trash. Jeff Foxworthy is famous for his "You might be a redneck...." jokes which more or less make fun of common redneck behavior and traits. For instance, rednecks are likely to have front yards which look like junkyards and they are likely to allow their dogs to bark and be completely oblivious as to why considerate people don't do things like that.

Irresponsible parents are the number one cause of child deaths and injuries.

These people might be a good example of what you might call rednecks.

Trona has a lot of that doesn't it? Maybe a majority of the homes when you drive through. I have seen it. I now understand what a red neck is.

So, the implication then is that where there is junk in the front yard outside the house, then it is likely that incest takes place inside the house. As a slogan that might be:
JUNK OUTSIDE = INCEST INSIDE

My guess would be YES!

Either that or: Dogs barking outside = Family F**king inside

A neighbor got a dog and it barked on and off throughout the day, but at night it got really bad. I lost sleep and became extremely irritable. It was at that point I realized just how bad it is to have an inconsiderate neighbor and how barking dogs can drive people crazy. I tried talking to the neighbor, but he just laughed and told me to get used to it. So, I talked to some in-laws and one asked me if I minded if he did something drastic. I said that nothing was out-of-bounds just as long as my life could return to normal. The dog was gone two days later. I asked no questions and thanked my in-law. Here's the problem. New dog two weeks later. Same problem. Also I noticed that the neighbor had installed security cameras. I called my in-law again. He said he was up for the challenge and the dog was gone the next day. Cops were called by the neighbor and people in the neighborhood were questioned, but nothing came of it. The bad neighbor wound up moving and life is now good and my favorite in-law gets special presents on his birthday and at Christmas. I still don't know exactly what he did and quite frankly I don't care!

Heck, I'd drown the asshole, the dog, and his whole family, including his sweet innocent kids. Dog owners who allow their dogs to bark and disturb their neighbors are about as worthless and pathetic as it gets.
