Is the term "coonass" offensive?

To make a long story short, I was at lunch with some friends. While we were discussing food, I said, "Give a coonass some roadkill, a squirrel and a nutria and he'll give you the best meal of your life."
The person at the table next to me said, "I'm from Baton Rouge and I find coonass to be offensive."
I was dumbfounded. I apologized , but I thought it was a fairly jovial term?

No.
Redneck is offensive to a connass, however.

Cowfricker, Gringo...whatever. Those are generally examples of slurs used jokingly.
I'm dead serious in the coonass term. I thought it wasn't a big deal and sort of an honorable term?

You talk like this non-ironically?
Oh and the person from Baton Rouge clearly wasn't a coonass. We don't go to Baton Rouge for lunch.

Two of my cooney friends asked me stop.
We don't talk anymore.
F'n cooney's.

Outside Louisiana? Definitely. Inside? Probably not.

Redneck is absolutely an offensive term. Like I mentioned earlier, I was under the impression that coonass was sort of a compliment. I was dumbfounded and at a loss for words when she said that it was an insult. I stumbled through the apology, but was still confused.

Not to me, but some people are looking to be offended and will find something to offend them. Next time tell her not to eavesdrop on other people's conversations.

You should've told him that since he's from Baton Rouge he's not a coonass and he should STFU.

Fortunately for rednecks, they don't get offended and let their feeling get all butthurt about shite like that.
Hell, I can think of at least 10 country songs with redneck in the chorus

When we were in Omaha (2009), we tailgated next to some great LSU fans. We all shared "coonass, gringo, tea-sipper" in a laughing, back-slapping manner.

Not offensive to myself or my fellow asses and we hear it often. I can't imagine the coonasses I know being offended by much hahahhaa

Actually, coonass is offensive, primarily to older generations. My late father didn't like the term so I wouldn't use it around him. It doesn't bother me. When you look up the term, it actually is a French word. It means, "A stupid person".
