This story very much sickened me. Though I suppose some here will not think it was "wrong" but IMO, incest is just intrinsically very disgusting and leads to bad consequences. Let alone incest with two minors.

To take an excerpt:

Kingston was 24 when he took LuAnn Kingston as his fourth wife in 1995. Family members say he has at least 17 children.

And just the name "LuAnn", the fact that it took place in Utah, makes it sound like something from a red neck stereotype.
 
Tony - Did you meet any rednecks in England?

My impression was that a redneck is a white guy that happens to be ignernt and damn proud of it, and the racial slur you used is a redneck term that describes a black guy that happens to be black.
 
That guy has 17 children. I have none. And people still believe in natural selection...

Genes don't care. You need to breed to stay in the game.
 
So the guy married his aunt. Whats the big deal. What goes on in peoples bedrooms is none of our business.

This guy is not a redneck. I am a redneck. Rednecks for the most part are good people, who can laugh at themselves, work & play hard.
Sure we drive big trucks, wear wrangler jeans, cowboy boots (and a few dip or chew tobacco) but this type of behaviour is not typical of recneck life.
You might be thinking of 'white-trash' which this person might qualify for.[/Hijack]
from the linked story
The Kingston clan, also known as the Latter Day Church of Christ, includes an estimated 1,200 members. The secretive group has amassed a $150 million business empire, running Utah companies that include pawn shops, restaurant supply stores and dairies.

Looks more like a Mormon off-shoot than anything else.

The thing is in communities like that one the marriages are not consentual. Young girls are assigned to marry people, if they don't like it too bad. If their husband dies (not unusual as they are often made to marry people much older than themselves) then they are immediatly made to marry someone else.

Women have no rights in these communities, they are a commodity to be traded.

No, the girl he married was his aunt AND his cousin, and she's been known to wear a dress that's strapless with a bra that isn't. Face it, they're slack-jawed yokel rednecks.

That's irrelevent to the incest charge.

If she wasnt related to him would the situation be any better? NO. But he woudlnt be in jail.

I met the equivalent of a red neck.

Wrong. Ever hear any rap music? You're way behind the times. "Ni**er" is a word used by many races for many reason, sometimes as a pejorative, sometimes in a friendly manner. I, personally have been called "ni**er" by white, asian and black people.
 
I thought rednecks dragged 'em behind their pickup trucks, and Westerners just beat 'em to death.

Thats would be "ni**a" which is different than "ni**er".

Slurs also depend on whos saying them. A southern calling another southener a "redneck" is different than a northener calling a southener the same.
 
Ni**a please! No theres a big difference to the words.
