"And just to fair, there are probably a lot of ballsy Scots left in Scotland.
Why they're doing nothing to put a stop to tyrannical acts against them is beyond me.
Personally, I want to know how the -Highland & Island- people feel about all this"


Actually the ballsy ones (like my Dad) left and came here, or (like his brother) to Australia.

The ONE thing the Brit will be left with to defend themselves will be....their limp-wrists.

The dirk is also a traditional part of Scottish national dress. Not as often worn as the sgian dubh, but intrinsic all the same.

I was wondering what Connor MacLeod would have to say about this. I can't imagine he's pleased. ;)

You can now buy a 'safety' sgian dubh. The blade is plastic. Some have no blade at all.

Too many folks have had experiences like yours when traveling by air.

effete fascists called the English

Tell that the the Royal Marines; the Brigade of Guards; the SAS;

Tell it to all our brave service men and women serving in the Gulf.

How many effete English fascists do you personally know.

As usual lets take the weapons from Law Abiding Citizens.
When will these morons learn that a criminal can and will get a weapon no matter what. They are not going to obey any laws. Well now they will ban knives what will be next, rope for people who strangle others, hammers, the list goes on and on.
The Crime statistics in England and Australia since guns were taken away from people have shot up and will continue to go up.

NEXT will be pencils and pens...
You can do a lot of damage with a sharp pencil...
All the Scots that would have gotten that gaff are probably dead.. pity..
The Welsh are pussys and servile...
And the Irish are organized criminals..

Must be the BBC has brain washed them all.. completely..
