The Devil must be behind Scotland's pro-independence movement

[Blackleaf]

The vast majority of the "Lowland Scots" were English, not Scots

They were, and still are, Scots, as their name implies. They are the people of Scotland who don't live in the Highland areas, such as those who live in the big cities like Glasgow and Edinburgh.

I hope I never get to read any of your bizarre utterances ever again.

And even if the majority of Scots WERE in favour of Bonnie Prince Charlie and the Stuarts (and, as I've shown, the majority of Lowland Scots were against them), then how does that put the Scots in a positive light? There was a good reason why the Scottish Stuarts were hated and were ousted from power and that one of their number - Charles I - was the only English, Scottish or Irish monarch to ever be executed.

It was also a Scottish Stuart monarch - James VI of Scotland, I of England - who started the troubles in Ireland by starting Scottish Protestant plantations in the north of Ireland. Their descendants today are known as Ulster Scots.

Of course, the fact that it was the Scots who started the troubles in Ireland is ignored by many people. As usual, that's all the fault of "the English".

The English began planting immigrants in Scotland under Edward I.

Considering that Edward I was only the King of England and did not rule Scotland this can only mean that you are about to be visited by...

Anyway, don't be disheartened by your massive failure. Hopefully, next time you'll come up with a more cogent argument.

You must be the only person on earth that is proud to be known as a BULL$HITTER

 

[Blackleaf]

I never bull****. That's because, unlike a lot of people here, I research before I post to make sure I'm accurate.

That's why it'd be physically impossible for you to disprove anything I've said on this thread.

 

[petros]

No you don't.

Interesting question.............








FREEDOM OF INFORMATION REQUEST Y4718






Dear City of York Council,

In York, excluding Sundays, it is perfectly legal to shoot a Scotsman with a bow and arrow.


As such, please tell me the number of Scots who have been shot in the last ten years by those taking advantaged of this law.

Yours faithfully,

Henry Shrimp

It's also legal to shoot a Welshman with a longbow in Chester... so long as it's done after midnight.

In fact, all English males over the age of 14 are required by law to have two hours of longbow practice each week.

That's TRUE.

Right up there in modern military training I see.
