I didn't mention guns, though. Knives and brass knuckles.

Ok? What scenario are you talking about then?

If I'm in a fight and some Frenchman pulls a blade on me I'm going to pull out a my pocket pistol.

Fair fight - the redneck wins
Unfair fight - the redneck with the gun wins

Springhill and Haynesville too.

Might have to get some Ebarbs from Farmerville involved. Back in the late 70's I saw Roy Gene Ebarb slap the Farmerville City Marshall and tell him to get back in his car. The man got back in the patrol car and left. That happened during a night of drinking and fighting in the 1st Baptist Church parking lot.

Roy Gene wasn't as mean as his younger brother Ken. After we played at Coushatta high school, Ken sat down next to the bathroom on a Continental Trailways bus after Clarence Williams went into it. He held his leg against the door and wouldn't let him out or anyone else go to the bathroom. Two hours later when we got off the bus back in Farmerville Clarence had busted out the screen on the little window at the back of the bus, stuck his head out and was saying, "I'd be alright if I just had some fresh air." He used to make the football managers ride laying down in the overhead luggage racks.

One morning during homeroom instead of hearing someone say the morning prayer, the guidance counselor got on the PA and called for the principal to come to the auditorium. Teachers and some students all ran down the hall to the auditorium. A black guy had flirted with a white girl and the white guys were fighting the black guys in a senior homeroom that met in there. After the fight had been broken up, and all of the fighters were in the principals office being scolded, Roy Gene threw a guy through the plate glass window in the principals office. They called the cops after that, but I don't think they made any arrests. The next day they made some of the guys who were in the fight get on the PA and say it wasn't blacks against whites. They said it was football players vs. basketball players. The stupid part of them saying that was all of the basketball players (the black guys) except for one played football too.

I moved to Farmerville from Mississippi before the 10 grade. Before the first football game I played in Farmerville one of the assistant coaches reminded us to, "Leave your helmet on when the fight starts." My mom grew up in Bastrop and said boys from Farmerville were known for fighting when she was in high school in the 50's.

It was a fighting town.

Henry Johnson was a 6'3" 240 pound senior DL when I was a 5'9" 165 pound sophomore RB/LB. I never saw him in the weight room. Every day after practice, he spent five minutes soaping up his dick in the shower while singing, and nobody said a word about it. Nobody f'ed with Henry and we were all jealous, and would have been proud to show off that dick too. He owned his own pulp wood truck in high school.
