‘The British hounded my forefathers through the Highlands and eventually out of our homeland.’
The scots are British - scotland is part of Britain, therefore they must’ve hounded themselves! Which is exactly what they did, clan on clan while the English watched.
‘I hope they break from the crown and follow the lead of the Irish.’
Speaking as an Englishman, I concur completely. The sooner England can be rid of the people’s socialist republic of Jockland the better. Without Scots Labour votes, the Conservatives would have won every election in England since World War 2.
Sadly the scottish nationalists. despite wanting independence, despise free-market America so much instead of electing their own president, they have asked if they can keep HM the Queen as head of state and stay in the commonwealth! :(
Perhaps you could make them the 51st state of the union and the first entirely socialist state of the union? :)
You have too little faith in people and the value of liberty. Freedom means one has to take care of oneself. You folks did not give us upstart Americans much of a chance of success either.

Sorry, that honor is already taken by Massachusetts. ;)

your ignorances of history is breathtaking...it rivals that of the liberals running for president. Start with reading about Edwards Longshanks and go from there...
Well said britemp. The sooner the Scottish stop leeching off the English taxpayer the better.
Mate, what do you think its like for Conservatives here who can see the damage ‘West of Scotland’, Tommy Sheridan type socialism has done?.
Could do without referring to us as Jockland though.Never sure whether that is affectionate or contempt.
I thought you liked Scotland and hoped we might change our politics and be part of the UK.
