Thanks, have you too noticed that he has tried to deflect the whole thread to something in his imagination, rather than what it was about?

His anti-Englishness is also shocking (I am not English), but worse is his ignorance on the relationship between Scotland, England and Britain as a whole.

It has also disturbed me that he thinks those who are of Scottish descent in North America are the genetically superior people compared to modern Scots who he hates. I think it’s because he is trying to hold onto an identity that never was. If he doesn’t who is he? His identity is what we call in Scotland of the “shortbread tin” variety. Bagpipes, kilts and regular watchings of Braveheart. LOL

Yes, he does have a bee in his bonnet about something.

25 years of experience running a Scottish store here in the US has been very enlightening as to how Americans view we Scots. Many knowledgeable folks, but many "Brigadoons" as well!

Slainte!

"... he has tried to deflect the whole thread to something in his imagination ... "

Presumably, one of us is a liar & as I've posted more than one link (here, #19) to you saying precisely what you go on claiming I'm imagining ...

"Britain fought for two years against tyranny alone"

which quite plainly omits any acknowledgment whatsoever of the sacrifices of all the nations - not just Canada - who stood allied with Britain between 1939 & 1941.

Further, your other ignorant & disparaging comments, particularly to & about FRiend candor7, go along way to more than confirming my initial premise.
