It`s not difficult really..I`ve always noticed the ones who shout the loudest on most subjects are very often in the minority. They seem to think it`s the way to drown out the ever present "silent majority" ..

You seem a very educated fella. hats off to you.

What gets up my back is I'm of Scottish decent ,and i know 100% that (if) Scotland got her independence the whole of scotland would not be partying,neither would they all be wearing kilts.

Scotslass needs to read some history.

History lesson 1

After the Norman conquest, the Anglo-Saxons migrated into the English and Scottish borderlands.
Over the next hundred of years the Saxons inter-mingled with the local small gaelic population. in them hundred of years, a new identity was born, The Lowland scots.

The Lowland Scots were on a different ethnic back ground to the Highland Scots who were of pic and viking decent.

Today the lowland Scots can be seen with their surnames not carrying the Mc or Mac. however, they still remain loyal Scots.

I'm Lowland Scot.......Dunlop

No Mc or Mac
I'm proud of my Scottish ancestry.

Even though we are 80% descended from the Saxons.
And i would not be wearing a kilt like the rest of the lowland Scots,if Scotland got independence

As an english person I would love to see Scotland gain It's Independance, but It will never happen, the scot's will see to that.

Who knows what does that tell you about me? I stand by my country and im very proud. People the same should understand.

If I was anti-English i'd down you all, i'd use slurs and I would not be associating with you. Funny that I have friends down south, they understand because they feel the same about England, kudos to them. There is a difference between being proud and patriotic to being an anti. I thought you were smarter than that.
