No idea about the workers at that plant, but we got a lot of dumbass rednecks in Pennsylvania whose balls are firmly ensnared by Putin via his channels in the US like Fox. Definitely worried about security.
Racism? Yeah there's a miscommunication at play here - guessing use of the word "redneck" is the culprit here, but there's no racial affiliation with that. A redneck is just an idiot with guns and cowboy boots, and lately a target and total sucker for Putin's propaganda steam in the US. It spans many races.
