Thousands, maybe millions of Scotsmen have died for the British Empire and everything it stood for. Just in case you'd forgot.
Maybe you've been watching too much Mel Gibson shit, but historically England and Scotland have coexisted relitavely peacefully. The only times they have really clashed is when public figures have manipulated and expolited Scottish nationalism in order to get their own way.
You're certainly right about some Scots bearing allegiance to the British Empire, but why should I be greeted with derision for disagreeing? Yes I'm for fucking real.
Mel Gibson is an anti-Semitic, alcoholic wanker. I take it you're referring to the abortion that was "Braveheart". No, I am fully aware of the historical inaccuracies in that film, and would never use it as a point of reference. Besides, it's a shit film. I don't know how you think the Scottish and English coexist relatively peacefully, but believe me we don't. Living in the Scottish Borders I have plenty first-hand experience of the violence which is still prevalent between the two nations.
