Hillbillies vs Rednecks

I always figured Hillbillies and Rednecks were pretty much the same thing.  I've lived both lifestyles and can assure you they are not.

I grew up in the foothills of California as a proud Hillbilly.  We loved music, moonshine, and evenings by a campfire.  I now live in Kansas and they love big trucks, beer, and barbecues.  I realize these aren't huge differences but I'm about to explain to you the thing that really sets these two apart.

Had we owned computers in the hills and used Facebook to sell stuff around our house you'd likely see things like this Washtub Bass. A prized possession to any true Hillbilly.

Here in Kansas I keep seeing things like this posted for sale on Facebook:

I see stuff like this all the time around here!  It's shocking to me!  It doesn't mean Hillbillies are better because they're more peace loving people, it just means they are different than Rednecks. 

Why? 

Because a Hillbilly would NEVER sell his guns!

Just sayin'
