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".
Some oldtimers still dont like it.
My grandfather got pissed anytime someone said it around him. He grew up as a dirt poor farm boy in Abbeville but refined himself and started a business in Baton Rouge. He always tried to stay classy but call him a coonass and well the coonass would come out.
