Yep, it can be hard to tell rednecks and hillbillies apart... rednecks can't play the banjo and hillbillies keep it in the family. You've gotta get way too close to determine either characteristic. Better to just treat with caution unless proved otherwise. Of the two hillbillies are probably preferable, they are that way because they don't know any better. Rednecks are rednecks because they get a kick out of being ignorant jerks.
