How silly those Scots -

Kilts

Haggis

Caber-tossing

Now Floydd honoring!

Ha-ha-ha-ha! Oh, those Scots are so funny!

[the OlLine Rebel]

OMG!

Satire?!?!?

[Spok]

Et tu, Scotland? William Wallace is spinning like a turbine.

[dainbramaged]

I doubt Saint George could have spelled the word “Scotland”.

[TribalPrincess2U]

Another “what’s in it for me?” Money talks.
Of all the so called ‘hands up’ thugs, Floyd was the worst.
Why not glorify that Ferguson kid? He was only on Kit Kats.

[Paladin2]

St. Floyd is apparently a vastly superior scholar than these b0z0s.

>>What did David Hume say about race?

“I am apt to suspect the negroes to be naturally inferior to the whites.” — Hume, in a footnote remark.

[Veggie Todd]

Maybe they’ll dig up his gold coffin and take it on a tour of Scotland.

"The Hume Tower was previously named after Scottish Enlightenment philosopher David Hume, who is thought of as a notable classical liberal political philosopher. "

I cannot think of a stronger way to show their contempt for David Hume.

[dfwgator]

David Hume could out-consume
Wilhelm Freidrich Hegel

[Rurudyne]

Must have poor ventilation....

[ProtectOurFreedom]

Actually, it sounds like he fits in perfectly with the antifa / BLM kooks...

Hume held that passions rather than reason govern human behaviour, famously proclaiming that "Reason is, and ought only to be the slave of the passions".

Hume was also a sentimentalist who held that ethics are based on emotion or sentiment rather than abstract moral principle. He maintained an early commitment to naturalistic explanations of moral phenomena, and is usually taken to have first clearly expounded the is–ought problem, or the idea that a statement of fact alone can never give rise to a normative conclusion of what ought to be done.

The real question about whether this disgusting move will work is if these "educated" Scots know how to spell "fentanyl" ... for the name change, y'know.

[windsorknot]

Maybe they’ll dig up his gold coffin and take it on a tour of Scotland.

Let ‘em keep it there, and christen it with the finest single-malt.

[CaptainK]

Maybe they can give her a scholarship.

[Skywise]

A Scottish school, in Scotland, is going to name one of its buildings... after an American black man high on fentanyl who did not die from suffocation and who’s officers have not even been tried yet and who’s death sparked a communist uprising?

They’re drunk.

[faithhopecharity]

This report must be a parody. What great philosophical or historical work did Floyd produce for us?

[wardaddy]

And?

[beef]

The guy who invented Kwanzaa had an extensive criminal record which save for a few newspaper accounts has disappeared. We need to make sure the records of these newly minted saints do not suffer the same fate. Then perhaps in the future clear thinking individuals will reverse this crap.

[windsorknot]

Perhaps the United Kingdom should reconsider Scottish independence.
