It is something I love dearly, but I am so outraged by the actions of the Scottish judge and government that I hereby pledge not to buy another bottle of Scotch whisky, blended or single malt, until an official apology is made for this despicable act.

The rationale can be found in the main thread:

Sorry, no. I enjoy my Scotch, and I’m not going to punish them for the actions of a dim-witted Gov’t Official.

[OpusatFR]

Oh now! Not that!

How about we boycott haggis?

Maybe plaid?

[bcsco]

I’m with ya! But, then I can’t stand Scotch anyway. I’ll stick with my Bourbon.

[stan_sipple]

do you like the Japanese scotch whiskies?

[Paine in the Neck]

I cannae doo it!

The Scottish judge soon to be portrayed in a movie, Bleedingheart.

[ClearCase_guy]

I gave up French wine. Can’t give up the Scotch. Sorry.

[stan_sipple]

Bookers, Woodford Reserve, and Knob Creek!

[Dysart]

No true Scotsman would even entertain this idea.

[Badabing Badablonde]

Ok, now you’re asking for too much......can we boycott plaid or scotch tape or something?

[Radl]

Why not BP gas? I think some would rather push their car than give up the whiskey.

So basically you are saying cask not what your country can give up for you, cask what you can give up for your country.

Okay. I’ve been boycotting Scotch Whiskey for 36 years since I got sick on a bottle of Cutty Sark. Absolutely horrible stuff.

[mad_as_he$$]

I will be continuing my 35 year old boycott of Scotch.

[70th Division]

Give up Scotch? You want Kennedy to go broke. OH sorry. LOL

[mkjessup]

If the booze is actually made in Scotland, I say sure, go ahead.

Otherwise, you’re only hurting legitimate distillers and it won’t make a damn bit of difference.

Now if you want to boycott the use of plaid seat covers or upholstery, I’m all for it.

Good Luck.

My husband says no way. He will boycott scotch tape and plaid and bagpipe music as well as haggis.

We are going to Scotland in the spring and will tell them we understand having a gov that is not what one is,,

[Jagman]

Why stop at Scotch? Let's really hurt 'em. Repeat after me:

NO MORE HAGGIS!

NO MORE HAGGIS!

NO MORE HAGGIS!

NO MORE HAGGIS!

And if you can bear it, cut back on the blood sausage, too!
