I personally have never thought ill of them, but I would not want to cross them. Then, I wouldn't want to cross anyone else, so that's not really saying anything.
I will also say that rednecks are a damn sight scarier. And ethnically, I am one (Scotch-Irish, which is really Ulster Scottish).

I find it pretty upsetting that I believed so many untrue things about them, especially considering that there is scholarly, well-documented work available. And especially especially because I lived in their backyard not too long ago.
