      Thanks for your service Greg. Remember. Scots don't just make up the Scottish Regiments like the Black Watch. They are in the Royal Navy, Royal Air force, The Royal Marines and the Special Forces. The SAS was founded by a Scot in WW2.

    I'm not Scottish but I can't watch these pipers without getting choked up. It so beautiful to see a people so proud of their traditions, grand traditions, and see the young getting caught up in them too. Scotland forever, Scotland the great, this is what the music and parade say.

Why you don't get lead to water. God's just as sadistic as you are to him. Plus you needed his genetics to not be inbred greedy pos, and he'll leave you only to follow. The best doesn't have to help or forgive you. The best condemns and judges you for the cretinous inbred greedy pos you are. Blood proves this. You are not in based on God's circle and blood type.

      And rightly so. They have a record to be proud of. I don't know how true it is but I heard a story once of them taking a German position during WWI without firing a shot. Apparently they marched over the hill with the pipes and drums playing and the enemy surrendered. I think that was where they collected the nickname "The Ladies From Hell"

      My grandfather was in the Canadian Expositionary Force and fought at Vimy Ridge. He took out a sniper but later was wounded. All the men in his unit were killed in action except for him and one other soldier. He was sent back to London to recuperate from a hip injury that remained with him the rest of his life. He met King George while there. He told me the first two lines of barbed wire were difficult but the by the time you got to the third line of barbed wire that was where the machine guns were and they suffered terrific losses. Our ancestors were highland Scots from Colonsay, Scotland. His father still spoke Gaelic. My father also fought at D Day. Scotland the Brave!

      My great, great uncle was a Captain Welsh of the Scottish border regiment in the first World War he led his men over the top and was killed. Never found his body. His batman saw him fall, but in the melee he was lost. There is talk of him being buried in the tomb in a church in France of the unknown officer, as he was the only one that was not found out of the officers.

    Alright. I really appreciated the skill of the pipers & how tight the snare drums were, and I marveled at how consistent the bass drummer was, as well as his insistence on tempo when he felt things lagging. But having been a Marine musician in an Air Wing band, MEF band & base band, I know that our tradition is no one, and I mean absolutely no one breaks our ranks, so when I saw folks filming and going through he band I got so stressed I had to stop. How a drummer didn't take one out I haven't a clue - I was trying to and I haven't played in a parade in almost 40 years. Well done! Made a fellow musician, now disabled and barely able to walk, sit proud.

She's also just introduced the subject of 'white privelege' into the Scottish curriculum where 5 year olds will be brainwashed into believing their ancestors were butchers and maniacs. Pay attention to her actions, not the words she uses during the election campaign. Those words are just to keep her in power and she's no intention of fulfilling them.
