Newbie.

I have been boycotting haggis and wearing kilts for years now.

 

[redapples]

Well I of course eat haggis daily with my deep fried Mars Bar.

I am only drinking freedom whiskey these days, you terrorist-loving plaidmonkeys.

I'm not sure I understand. Clearly the site is a joke, but what is the thrust of the whole thing. Did Scotland actually do something, or is this a "look at all the things you have the Scots to thank for" sort of deal?

 

[bhamv3]

It was because the Lockerbie bomber was set free, I thought?

 

[Wahad]

Awesome.

Why is he telling us to boycott Scotland then giving us a list of things not invented by Scot's to boycot?

How can we possibly show these terrorists that we will not be intimidated if we continue to be better than they are?

Now your just being cynical. Walks in opposite direction whistling casually.

Actually that is an interesting notion. Part of the Nationalist agenda in Scotland is that Scotland could be self financing on it oil and gas reserves. If that's true and the idea of cheap Libian oil trade is also true then its sending quite a big bag of mixed messages.

The power of accurate observation is commonly called cynicism by those who have not got it.

"Although the final decision fell to Scotland we should also apply pressure to the rest of the UK in the hope that they can influence Scotland, a tactic which has worked well in the past."

Yeah selective reading. Fail at comprehension.

 

[Gurpel]

heh.

Because of this I urge every American to Boycott Scotland. It is the only way we Americans can ensure that every nation maintains and respects our rules, our laws, and shares our viewpoint.
