| It might as well be a small caliber rifle but from the looks of it it looks like a match rifle. |

| It is obvious that these folks probably have more money than thier nieghbors (evidenced by the DOUBLE wide trailer) which they are obviously earning by selling Marijuana (evidenced by the "starter" plants in the window box). This all leads me to believe that the gun held (not the 12 guage standing) is definitely a Webley-Vickars from about the 1970s. They changed the front sight in the early 1980s. |

Appears to be a barrel-cocking springer, from the little black square ahead of the stock.
Anyway, these cousins are not from the north, nor are they from tornado alley.
If they were from tornado alley, they would have steel cables or chains attached to cement moorings to keep the house from blowing away.
The CSA flag on the dog is a common enough sight even here in the north. But we would have hay bales packed in under the house to keep the pipes from freezing.
If these were my neighbors, they would have posed on the rain-soaked sofa on the front porch.
God bless my native land. |

Now this is a redneck house.
Sadly, this is a photo I took and not just another random internet pic. The inhabitants of this dwelling really ice this cake, but I had to take this pic at 6:00am so as not to be conspicuos, so I'm not able to show you what the folks who live here look like.
I remember one day driving home I saw a pair of babies ("Irish twins") hanging by their fingertips from a piece of particle board that was propped up against the house. I guess that is like the hick version of a jungle gym. |

| Nice yard! It would be pretty easy to mow. |

Maybe that's just a house from New Orleans. |

| Just to clarify, the overturned refrigerator on the front porch was not part of the mess in the front yard. After a month or two, that trash pile was removed. But the fridge was apparently something they wanted to keep. Must have been using it as a table or something. |
