Raving Lunatic in Glasgow
FreeRepublic ^ | 9/1/25 | ProtectOurCreedom

Posted on 09/01/2025 1:25:06 AM PDT by ProtectOurFreedom

We were walking to our train in the main Glasgow, Scotland train station a half hour ago. Halfway down the platform there were two policemen restraining a crazy man who was screaming at the police and struggling to break free from the cops.

I really wanted to get a video, but didn’t want to go to jail for that.

Thank you very much and God bless you.

Based on all the l liberal lunatic videos I’ve seen of crazies screaming at the police in the states, it made me feel right at home. As did all the filthy graffiti everywhere.

It was hard to tell, but it sounded like a thick brogue rage

Glasgow has always had its share of crazies, some were often just crazy day drunk, at least you saw cops. Through out the 80’s you were on your own lol ( I spent many Christmas and Hogmanay celebrations in Glasgow.

Was Joe Biteme visiting Glasgow? I thought they had him locked in the basement eating ice cream.

Speaking of Glasgow, from this morning’s paper...

https://www.glasgowtimes.co.uk/news/scottish-news/25430096.solar-farm-nearing-completion-glasgows-green-belt/

They put that huge thing on greenbelt area and are allowing sheep to graze nearby.

What could go wrong.

Thanks for that link. It says “Solar energy, currently the cheapest form of renewable power, is expected to play a pivotal role in achieving net zero by 2030.”

LOL…” currently the cheapest” is NOT the same as “cheap.”

The sheep will really appreciate the shade and the lush forage that will grow in the shade. Solar makes SO much sense at 56 degrees north with constant clouds, fog and rain. The UK is nuts about green energy.

If those sheep are being raised for slaughter, wouldn’t want to eat that mutton or lamb.

And after this usage, that soil likely won’t he arable again for decades without expensive reclamation work.

Glasgow is a very tough town!

My friend was a police officer there in the 80s.

She was on escort duty when Princess Anne visited Barlinnie jail (the worst of the worst were sent there).

HRH had her own RPO, but the local police wanted a representative there also.

My friend noticed they were being followed, turned suddenly asked "Why are you following us?" To which the person replied "Madam, I am YOUR protection!

Scotland’s last two leaders were racing lunatics. As is their entire national party for elevating a racist Muslim to that position, without an election. Scotland, land of part of my ancestors, is lost.

We stopped at a roadside restaurant after hiking the Waters of the Nevis near Fort William. Six or seven guys were on the patio yucking it up. One of the guys had the Union Jack flag draped over his backpack and I smiled and gave him a big thumbs up. He appreciated that.

I am of Scottish descent, many generations ago. I don’t know what has gotten into them! Glad my ancestors got away when they did.
