Jesus that is best video ever relating to Scotland. The english are two faced back stabbing B's as a people their ignorance of all things Scottish is monumental. They talk about Scotland GETTING independence the thing that Scotland is GETTING is rid of tribe of eejits. We are Taking our Independende back we asking no one for anything. Flying by the sear of our pants EH! this imbicile insults us then comes up to Scotland to beg us to stay in the Union as if nothing had happened Get yersels tae FK
Everyone here is doing the mind control on people saying DO THIS DO THAT....WELL I SAY enough and think with your own mind and speak for yourself and don't copy what I'm saying here. That's kinda mind control so don't .....erm no way to put this without say do what you want
What some people don't understand is that in 1979 we voted for independence and won but westminster put in a voting limit (so stubbourn). We should be free already
@CelticAngloPress You obviously have a greater knowledge than I do myself, and of course I know enough to say you're very right about this. Although it intrigues me what you meant by SNP/BNP/UKIP being the parties demonised. is this perhaps because they are parties looking to rip the New World Order a new bum hole? hahahahahaha :D
@ScottMcK9 ignor Pluto4847 mate he just badtalks Scotland and says they "did some terrible to him" and even contradicts him self. "Scots did something terrible to me" "it will be hard to forgive those who are responsible" obviously what 2 or 3 people did does not represent a whole country so just ignore his biased view of Bonnie Scotland mate :\
@DrinkToIreland I know what you mean, it's just in my nature no matter what with certain folk, I always see the good in certain folk. Although it depends upon the person really. But I do see your point, it's like 2 or 3 people do not represent a country of around 5 million population.
You know freedom is all about having differemnt viewpoints and being honest about it.
Let me ask you a question if I may, 'Would you rather I lied and said I lov ed Scotland?' In the end, whether you disagree or not with me, you'll trust me more than anybody you know--simply because I don't beat around the bush. I tell it like I see it. THat's a rare trait nowadays. I don't want to hurt your feelings, but what I am telling you: I won't lie to you.
And lets take you for example. You are obviously a Ron Paul fan. Well very well. Mr Paul says freedom is all about doing controversial things.
We all must make decisions in our lives, and as long as we don't physically disrupt the lives of other people, we should be able to show our true feelings to one another.
In a free society we should be regulated by human rights laws, but if we decide to try or say new things, there should be no censorship.
@pluto4847 I'm a Ron Paul fan because he wants to cut the size of your government and reduce government spending. That is something good for the economy, breaking free of your tyranny, what better could there be mate?
Like if you decide to take up smoking. That's your choice, and the lasw should not prevent you from making poor decisions that causes harm to yourself.
We are all supposed to be adults, ans as human beings we make choices and live by them.
The only law should be laws to protect another person from harm, but if you decide to smoke, that's your choice. Its called freedom.
@pluto4847 Completely agree with you Pluto, I just wish more and more people in America would waken to that reality and see that although certain policies may not be perfect, his policies are certainly a hell of a lot better than the corrupted politicians like Obama.And yes, protection from harm is correct.
Dr Paul also said that non offensive drug users should not be treated as criminals. Drug addiction should not be a crime, but rather an addiction which may be treated b y doctors--not the police.
I don't do drugs, but as Dr Paul said--what we decide to do to our own bodies is our choice, and if we make bad decisions--we suffer our own consequences.
Listen, I always spreak the truth. My newborn daughter died in Scotland. She had a heart defect. So part of me does belong to Scotland. When my daughter died, part of me died.
Now the things I am saying, I don't say them as an American or a Scotsman, I say them because I am a unique individual like each and every one of us here.
My whole path to freedom has little to do in regards to what country I reside, but by the personal choices and responsibility of the goals that I seek.
Dreams can come true, but you must never give up hope, but just keep trying untiol you do succeed. I'm living proof of that 10 times over.
@pluto4847 In other words, a group of youth, a gang, and this is what you base your judgement upon? Were you in Glasgow? This ic a city you do not turn around and open your mouth to anyone. If anyone shouts anything at you, you turn your head and ignore it, if they pursue, you run like fuck.
Scotland is not a country you turn around and answer them back, that's asking for trouble. I'd know this because I grew up in Glasgow's east end, I know the dangers. And trust me...
@pluto4847 You're right, that is why I have always kept my head down and ignored those who have shouted abuse at me and thrown bottles at me, because I know if I turn around and answer them back, there's a high chance I'd end up getting stabbed.
It's unfair, but it's the reality of life in Glasgow, you don't answer them back, the reason why you don't, is simply because they see that as a challenge, and only takes one moment of madness from one of them to attack. It happens a lot sadly.
@pluto4847 In fact, I remember one night walking home through the park, and a gang of youth chased me just because am from that area, glass bottle hit my back, dropped and smashed and a brick went flying past my head. Luckily am a very fast runner, I escaped.
@pluto4847 In order for these people to be in their 30's and do that, only thing I can think of, is football hooligans, might sound mad to you, but supporters here live their clubs around their entire life based upon a religion sadly. And I'm sorry you had to be a victim of it.
@pluto4847 Of course, but there is a big difference for example between a pub in the east end of Glasgow for example, to that of a west end fancy pub. Suppose depending on area. Like for example, if it happened in Glasgow, the most likeliest place to have been attacked was outside a trance nightclub in town, or a pub outside the town. How do I know this? Glasgow's town is recorded as one of the safest places in Europe, yet the surrounding areas in Glasgow, tell a different story.
@pluto4847 It's hard to say really, on most cases of violence like that, if something happened, the least you should have done was been in the polis station, now I won't back the Polis here, because I don't believe the Polis are perfect in any country. For them to ignore an incident like that is ridiculous.
@pluto4847 Victim Support? I don't have enough knowledge, but if it's what I think it is, it's serious enough. I would agree, often I feel things need to be brought down harder in justice in this country to the violence.
Scotland is a country full of wonderful people mate, but didn't become the most violent developed nation on this planet for nothing, it's the blade and booze culture that caused it. You don't go wandering the streets of Glasgow at night, that is why recently, I got death...
@pluto4847 ...I got death threats for being a Rangers supporter on YouTube, that is exactly what I mean. They only need to see I support Rangers and have a Union flag, that's all it takes for mindless idiots to attack me with a blade. Same goes for Celtic supporters in this city wearing a Celtic top etc, all it takes.
I won't sit and pretend there is not a problem in this country, there is. But always remember, those mindless ones do not contribute to all our people :) In fact...
@pluto4847 Oh God no, no way! soon as those arseholes clock the American accent, BIG mistake. I won't lie to you mate, I won't lie! they only have one picture of America, and that is hate, just like me supporting Rangers, or Celtic fans supporting Celtic, only one thing comes to mind, and it's all hatred.
You NEVER, ever where am from, turn around and open your mouth, that's the worst thing you could ever do. That is basically challenging them.
@pluto4847 One night when I was in town mate, I had a group of neds shout and laugh at me, because I have longer hair, they shouted "haaa look at that mad fuckin' poof"
Because I kept my head down and ignored them, they threw a bottle and smacked me right on the head, I continued to keep my head down and walked off. Because the moment you dare to turn round and answer back, that's it. Someone unaware of some where like Glasgow, is prone to that danger.
@ScottMcK9 yeah i'm not suprised about the death threats from the Rangers thing. The Celtics fans and Rangers fans despise eachother. I have gotten death threats from Americans because i am not staying in america and sometimes i point out it's wrong doings. I have gotten death threats from people because I speak out against the IRA. I don't take care to them. Why? because they are harmless people on the Internet who probably wouldn't dare attack me or anyone else in public. But i don't hate
@DrinkToIreland My advice to you mate, because I grew up in the east end of Glasgow, if you come to this wonderful city full of wonderful people, do not pay attention to the bad of the city, the harsh and brutality is, all it takes is to answer them back and that's how fast one can lose their life.
And don't talk about IRA or anything religious that will cause anything, I avoid talking about Rangers and Celtic mostly for a reason, because they'll want to kill me over it. It scares me.
@ScottMcK9 Thing is I despise the IRA with a passion. I despise how people glorify them for butchering innocents because the "big bad british" are in northern ireland. Even when Northern Ireland wants to stay British. So they just kill civillians that don't support them. A big reason I hate the celtics is because they openly support the IRA. Now i realise not every fan does so I do not hate Celtics fans.
@DrinkToIreland I agree mostly with what you're saying, but there's two sides to every story. Take this from a die hard Rangers supporter like me. I love my club to the day I die, will never support any other team, and I can say, it's just as bad on the Rangers side with the whole Ulster Loyalist crap and Protestant this and Protestant that, ach! get the whole religious divide to f*** I say.
We're all people supporting a sport, you know, that's something I admire about you Americans...
@ScottMcK9 I agree. Most of Scotland (from what i have seen) can banter over sports. But i think since the IRA and northern Ireland are involved with these two teams it will be quite a while before they calm down
@DrinkToIreland You Americans don't feel a need to go around bashing each other over the head and killing one another over a sport. Sure it has it's certain violence, but not like this. You Americans love your sport, and that's what you see it for, and have good banter, to me, that's the way things should be.
@ScottMcK9 But my motto is "do what i feel i should do, Say what needs to be said. The people that don't respect you for your views and your own opinions should not be in the argument, they can have my opinions and they can have theirs no needs to spill blood over it" Made this decision after getting into lots of trouble at school for fighting because kids would call me "traitor" what not since i said i wanted to move to scotland which was in Britian and i lived in the south near "patriot" land
@ScottMcK9 indeed. And it's not national. It's just personality. It breaks down into psychology. Some people HAVE do be dicks to others. Not for any reason they just feel the urge to call someone names bad talk them and be an arse
@ScottMcK9 And it's horrible how some Americans despise Britain for no reason but the revolution war.... And this is definetly not the majority but it is not too uncommon to see the "Usa #1 Britain sucks" every once and a while here
@DrinkToIreland Oh aye, I've seen it mate, I don't acknowledge it. I love the American people, they don't make up the entire population. I've came across a hell of a lot of people in America who have been wonderful to me, would never let those idiots cloud my image.
@DrinkToIreland Completely agree, I always speak my mind and will always be myself, those that hate you for whatever reason, it's best just to let them think what they want.
]Oddly enough, and this might surprise you. DEspite all the difficult obstacles I had to face in Scotland, a part of me will miss the place. It was, afterall, a second home for me for at least 3 years.
I had a lot of fun there too. I even worked for the Mercat tours in Edinburgh for awhile. I was a ghoul for the underground vaults.
@ScottMcK9 In fact the pipeband i play in. All of them are American, Except one who is also my teacher from Glasgow. And they all love the culture. There are Great people in every country. sometimes in countries like Iran the bad outweigh the good. But there are always great people in countries :)
@DrinkToIreland Completely agree with that, wouldn't know about Iran though, know very little on the matter, am sure there are a lot of really nice folk there. But yeah, completely agree with that :)
@ScottMcK9 i just said Iran because they were the ones that burned down the British embassy :P. But yeah i know a guy His parents were from Iran and they left because of all the violence they were nice people. Just the majority were violent :\ kinda sad to see in those countries in the middle east so much conflict
Dude, THe stuff I endured for the last eight years was incredible. I should be dead, but I'm not. Its not humanly possible for a human being like myself to be confronted by fate so much, and live to tell about it.
I was a hit and run victim in Scotland, my left leg was incredibly painful to walk on, I ate some oysters and suffered a severe allergic reaction--I lost my voice for three months when my throat swlled up, and to top it off I nearly drowned in the North SEa.
REmember the Mr Martin character I was telling you about. Well he wasn't directly involved with what happened to me, but he was supposed to help me. He was a civil servant, an oversight person, and now he investigates complaints about various Scottish communities.
I went to him for help, and at first I had the false impression that he would help me.
But in the end, he patronized me and basically told me to get on with my life, and that my particular complaint would not be upheld
@pluto4847 When fighting a case, one individual of help is never enough, always remember that, it's like the fight for success, one man's loss, is another man's gain. If one doesn't see you for talent, another might. Just like help, if one doesn't, another will.
Hey good news buddy. Dr Ron Paul looks like he will beat Mitt Romney in the State of Maine. Ron Paul definately has Maine's backing in this REpublican Presedential nomination race.
Of course, Ron Paul needs at least one State to rally for his cause, and than the media wuill take him seriously as a candidate.
And lets say Ron Paul does not get the REpublican nomination. No Problem! All he has to do is run on a third party ticklet, like the LIbertarian Party.
Don't believe the hype that Mitt Romney is better than Obama. He is not. Mitt Romney, believe it or not, shared some of ideas with Obama that Obama is now claiming as his own.
Mitt Romney is what you call a LIberal Conservative. He belongs to tghe REpublican party, but he is also very socialistic.
Oh yeah, and Mr James Martin got my name wrong, and even confused me with another case he was investigating.
So obviously, this man was not competent enough for the job.
And oh by the way, he now is director of the Scottish Public Service Ombudsman, and his job performance was incredibly low ranking.
I even (listen to this) I even hired a mediator to discuss our differences, and Mr Martin was a no show. He didn't even bother after all the trfouble I went through.
@pluto4847 You find people like that all over the world mate, no matter what country, there are people who are useless at the job they do. It's like my friend who drove out to this tyre service to have this tyre fitted for his car, they tried to claim it wouldn't fit, time wasted, yet the other tyre service done it no problem. Guy didn't have a clue what he was talking about.
I put my trust in mR Martin because originally he gave me confidence that he understood my situation, and every letter I wrote him was never even read. Its like he was avoiding me for some reason.
Hello there, I was reading my local paper today and something struck my eye. There are two houses in my region that are selling for no more than $14,000. That's right, only 14 k.
I bought my house two years ago at $20,000 and I thought that was a bargain.
So I was thinking, 'Would you be interested in owning some property in the State of Pennsylvania? You don't have to be a US citizen, you could make it a summer home.
Are you looking for a house to own, houses are cheap here.
@pluto4847 Something like that would be quality, no doubt when I have the money at my disposal, I'd definitely plan on owning a second place like that, but need to get my own things sorted out here first, which means my career.
Hey no worries mate. The Ron Paul movement is only the beginning. If Ron Paul loses, he will probably retire.
However, the Paul movement is not over by a long shot.
Ron Paul's son, Rand Paul, is a junior SEnator of Kentucky. He looks like a younger version of his father, and he believes in the same principles that his dad does.
Ramd Paul, like his father, is for more freedom, less involvement in foreign affairs, and the people love him just like his father.
Houses are very inexpensive in the United States. Well our houses are not as strong as Scottish houses, but they get the job done.
The housing market in the USA is really inexpensive now--so much that they are practically giving them away.
When I lived in Scotland, I had no chance of owning a home of my own. It was way over my head, but the dream has come true. I always wanted property of my own, and now I got it.
@pluto4847 There's a reason for that though, it's because of all the hurricanes that America is faced with, it's mostly wooden as far as I know in central parts of the US. As for prices in Scotland, usually the best bet is where you pay for, usually renting is best option
RENTING? I been there and done that. When you rent, its like serving another master. I rented in America and Scotland, and I simply hated it that they made all the rules and regulations of what I could do with tghe property, I was desperate to own my own land.
So I did. I bought a house at now less than $20,000. The mortgage was incredibly cheap. Yes its a countryish town, not much going here, but I like it.
In 1992, Ross Perot an In depent Party member almost beat Bill Clinton and George Bush SEnior. Ross's mistake was that he dropped out of the race too early, and when he re-entered the race it was too late. Bill Clinton was the favourite.
Jesse Ventura belongs to the Indepenent party and he caused an upset victory between the Govenor race between the Republican and DEmocrat.
Joe Liberman, Senator from the State of Conneticut is also an independent.
Looking back at my incident, did you know that it felt like I was stuck in time. I'm in my 30's now, and I look exavctly the same as I did on March 10 2004 when the Ford Escort smacked into me.
Its like I was frozen completely in time. FRiends who have not seen me in years say I have not changed one bit--except of course my leg. They lost some hair and went grey, but I remained the same.
THat's a good thing I suppose, but I really want to move beyond that experience.
@pluto4847 You can never fault that bud, it's good that you still remain that way, and don't worry about it. When you look around you in life and see what you have, that's all that really matters. There are a lot of people that end up dead in incidents like that. Plus you're like me in that sense, that you perhaps look younger than your age. Am the same.
I like the quiet life. Where I live there are a few Amish folk and Native American indians. Where I live, you don't need to make a lot of money to live comfortably, you just have to live within your means. I'm not rich, but I own some inexpensive property. The house I have is not bad. Its an older house, but it does me just fine.
Let me tell you Ron Paul's game plan.He is not really a REpublican.He jpined the REpublican patrty because it was a major party were he had the potential to win.
However, the USA does have third parties who also run for President.
You seldom here about them, but once and awhile third parties do enter the Presedential race.
In 1992, Ross Perot (a member of the Independent party) was a candidate alternative for Bush Sr and Bill Clinton.
After I got a new leg brace, its like I was given a second chance to re-live my life that I lost. Its like a second chance for me, and this time I want to do things right. For years I was in pain and under deep depression. I stopped doing thjings, I just stayed in bed.
But someone woke me up one day and told me that I had a life to live.
So I picked myself up, looked for work, and now I feel more free than I ever have.
And thank you for your kind words. I really appreciate it.
In regards to the case of Bush and Blair on war crimes, a High Court in Malysia has found both Blair and Bush guilty of war crimes.
I doubt Bush and Blair have any intentions of visiting Malysia, but if they do--they can legally be arrested under a War Crimes Tribunal in that coun try. That's good news.
But I doubt it will come to that though.
But just like thew Nazi's were held accountable for what they did, I think it is objective and reasonsable that they are not above law
You have restored my honour, and because of you I can forgive Scotland the nation (even though I was wrong for being mad at an entire country) for the vile acts of a few.
Thank you for restoring my honor.
I can be free again, and do the things I always wanted to do.
If you ever need to talk or need any help than please don't hesitate to contact me.
As an American, I think it was wrong for Bush and Blair to enter Iraq. It was just plane wrong.And it wouldn't bother me in the least if Bush and Blair were tried and arrested for crimes against humanity.
There were no weapons of mass destruction. THat's what got America in debt.
In this particular case, I hope that the United Nations would review this case, and take charge of this situation. It was just plane wrong.
@ScottMcK9 Americans or Irish Republicans. Why should I? if a group of these people says things that does NOT represent the people as a whole as you said earlier :) cheers
@ScottMcK9 But I know that Glasgow is quite a dangerous city sometimes. The western with the Irish and the eastern with the Scots, Big rivalry, The young team and the other gang. But why blame a whole people when only a few have done wrong. And Glasgow has some of the Best, and worst people. But no country, city, continent, person, animal, or anything is perfect
@DrinkToIreland I agree with you, on the lighter note like I mentioned, there are a LOT of really wonderful people in my city, a lot who do me proud and is the reason Glasgow is noticed for it's people. It's a friendly city, it's known for it, but it's dark side, I avoid, it rips my heart out.
I love my people, I really do, and my country, it's why I do the best I can to show the world the city and country I was born in, because I wholeheartedly love my country.
@ScottMcK9 their country. America has so much crime and violence BUT that is not the Nation. It may be a great portion But it's not the whole nation. I love Scotland. I have met many people from Scotland great amazing people. And I love the culture and everything. But i agree there is a bad side in some cities. Mostly just Glasgow which is a shame because i know a few folk from Glasgow and seen Pictures and it looks Beautiful and such nice people. But jerks are everywhere. Cheers keep safe :)
@DrinkToIreland Exactly, you know that's the goal I set out to accomplish, to put Glasgow in the right light, not for what Glasgow constantly gets tarnished by media with. Glasgow is a wonderful city and I would recommend it to anyone. There are a lot of great people here, and it's good people like you know that and can understand where I'm coming from.
@pluto4847 There are more great people in this country, that outshine the bad, and they themselves will tell you no different to myself, that these thugs will attack you for no reason. Trust me, I've been chased several times, why? You tell me.
Got death threats sitting in my YouTube Inbox right now, you tell me what merits that? I'll tell you what merited that from a fellow Scot, because I make YouTube videos, have longer hair and support Rangers and have a Union flag, that's why.
@pluto4847 I was brought up in a culture where you are saw as gay for talking proper English, a place that would attack you and call you a poof or a goth because you have longer hair. I know the brutality, I wouldn't pretend it's not there.
Always remember this though, there are so many wonderful people in my city and they should NEVER be overlooked just because of certain mindless thugs.
@pluto4847 Their scum mate, and fucking scum for what they done to you, they don't deserve to call themselves Scottish!
Anyone who commits violence for the sake of being so closed minded, don't bloody deserve the name of a true Scot. A true Scot is a Scot that is open minded and friendly. And it saddens me that in this real world where I live in, it exists.
@ScottMcK9 But only the Extreme Celtics& Rangers fans commit murder/Act of violence upon people, they are not so petty. And usually the Extreme ones are the ones that like the teams based on religion. And i am not going to go in Depth about religion... :P
@DrinkToIreland I don't really call them supporters, rather just hooligans, many Celtic and Rangers fans will agree with me. The violence in my nation saddens me, my own family and some of my best friends support Celtic, and love them all.
There are many things I'm proud of my nation for, but several things that sadden me about Scotland, this country needs to see the religious divide as the past, it's not worth it.
@ScottMcK9 indeed. Such petty things people sometimes argue about.. And we face this problem everywhere, America, Britain, middle East, The rest of Asia, Africa, every continent but Antartica. I wouldn't say it's nations that need to look at THEIR people, but rather the WORLD that needs to look at the bad people everywhere. And I still live in America and some places here are HORRIBLE, gangs shooting eachother in every state almost. There are "hillbillies' that curse out kids if they see them
@DrinkToIreland Completely agree with you, it's a really heart wrenching thing of society that I hate with a passion, but also deeply saddens me, purely because I've been subjected to this hate with death threats and all sorts, for what? Exactly, you just wouldn't understand yourself why you'd get threats, you'd be thinking to yourself "what the hell have I done wrong?" Answer, nothing.
@ScottMcK9 exactly you said what you believed needed to be said and thats YOUR opinion not anyone elses. They can have their opinions too. Everyone can have their opnion on everything.
@ScottMcK9 walking anywhere near their sheltered areas. Americas government is a group of backstabbers that would sell their country out for a nickel. There are people that line up on the Mexican/American border to "protect" America from immigrants. And of course that means shoot first ask later. The crime rate here is unimaginably high. America has the highest crime per capita out of all the western countries. I have been to these "patriots" homes that have stockpiles of guns ready to "defend"
@DrinkToIreland Yeah, they do have, and they call that freedom, it's the only thing I disagree with in this world, no one on this earth should be able to bare arms unless you're working for the polis.
As an American, my country and the United Kingdom should not be the police officers of the world.
Dr Ron Paul said it best, ' Wars are not about occupying other countries we don't agree with.' According to Paul, "We should just defend our own, and that's it. We don't keep pestering an enemy country.
That is why I was glad that the FRench led the strike on Libya, and only had the USA as a supportive rule.
As for the IRA, I don't have much to do with those guys.
Going back to freedom again. Our individualism is what makes us free. My country as well as Scotland has tried to nanny its citizens FRom telling us that we can't smoke, to telling us what we should eat, and for punishing non-violent drug offenders with jail time instead of allowing them to seek medical help.
Freedom is all about making personal choices.
So if our hair is long, we like listening to a certain group, its our freedom
I know that in SCotland, you'll have a mandatory MOT for every car. Well in some states in my country, you don't have to get a car inspection . Its basically down tgo us to take the responsibility for our cars--not the Government.
So often in life, we make our own obstacles. WE give excuses for not doing certain things. Things like money, the right friends, and being at the right place at the right time does help.
But in the long run, we don't need those things. We just have to believe in ourselves, stop making excuses, and give everything 110% in our lifelong goals.
I know this to be true because I once lived the most terrible existence. When I changed my thinking, things got much better fast.
You wanna make fun of me? Go right ahead if it makes you feel any better. I'm an easy target. I can be a col;d hard cynic like you, but I don't like to hurt people's feelings.
Say what you want about me. I'm not changing. Yeah I talk to much. I also listen too much. I like me. My wife likes me. My customers like me. Cause I'm the real article. What u see is what you get.
JUst to set the record straight, I don't hate yiu as a person, and I don't hate you for being Scottish. However, I can't really say I have a great love for your country because it would not be the truth.
If you hate America, than fine. You have freedom to hate the USA if you wish. I won't take that from you.
Its funny because just before I was packing my bags to go back to America, an evil Scots person told me to 'Fuck back to America.'
I wanted a house, I got a house despite the odds against me.
I wanted a job, I got two jobs in a differenmt area.
I wanted a wife, I got a wife--albeit I had to travel to the UK to get one.
My left leg was mangled up, I workled around it. I wear a prostetic device.
So goals can be achieved, but sometimes one must look at all possibilities of achieving thbose goaldsd. THat meand making personal sacrifices to achieve them.
I lost the ability to walk for the longest time, but I am much better off now. I can walk around.I can do things I never dreamed of before, and I have a stronger sense of what the meaning of life really is.
@ScottMcK9 i hate politics anawl there aw lying wankers but answer dis if we are the PARASITES westminster believes us to be den why are they so keen to kerp the union and forget oil one of scotlands greatest exports is tourism which right now is being destroyed with theyre nuclear waste dumps think about it
@bambyzrevenge And to add a little note, voting Independence does not make one more patriotic than another. So if any Scots out there vote no, it's not because they're unionists, it's because they understand economics and know that Socialism is nothing but a complete failure, which is why you saw all those European countries being bailed out.
SNP openly admitted to spending, already thrown out bouts of Socialism, that's enough evidence to prove it's not freedom, it's the path to Communism
@pluto4847 The guy has things right, you reduce the size of the government and that is what needs to happen in Britain. He's the only one that will make your nation free, he will make cut backs, but it's the only way your nation will ever recover from the mess it's in.
As far as what I was told, they need to devalue the currency to reduce the size of the debt. A country like Greece being bankrupt isn't exactly that bad, in fact, they're probably better off than us right now.
I'm sorry, but some Scots did something terrible to me. I can forgive all of you, but it will be very hard to forgive those who are responsible for years of anguish.
If you don't like me because of that, I'm fine with it now.
@pluto4847 They're individuals mate, not Scotland or the Scottish people. Scottish people would not make you feel unwelcome, unless of course you talk about troubled youth. You have some right fucking arseholes in your country too mate, remember that. I had an argument with one trying to tell me Scotland has little significance on world affairs today, despite the fact he views the modern world through the eyes of Scots.
I know not all people in your country are bad or ignorant...
@pluto4847 In fact, I love the American people, and Scottish people as far as I know, would make you feel welcome, the only type they wouldn't are those who are very ignorant and arrogant, you don't quite come across in that same manner, well at least not to me.
@pluto4847 people like me and those who believe in freedom would support Ron Paul, without question, your globalist elite media like you say are the ones who try and feed out bullshit, the most important thing, is the more and more people in your country see that although some of his policies may not be perfect, but Christ, it's far better than a president who is trying to lead you to Communism, do you know what that would do to my own country?
@pluto4847 Take for example SOPA and PIPA, if it was passed in your country, American websites like Facebook and YouTube, would become dictated, the whole internet would, it would effect not only Americans, but ourselves.
@CrystalCee1 That's because of it's corruption pal, it's dictatorship, it's Socialist governed dictatorship. And people like him, keep voting and supporting socialist idiots like Obama.
@CrystalCee1 In fact I don't believe Obama is an idiot, I believe he is corrupted and is part of the Globalist elite and is lying to the people so he can lead them towards communism with doses of Socialism.
@pluto4847 Your governor? Your governor practically bows and kisses the arse off the likes of Obama. And Obama is nothing other than a puppet, the real power is not your governor, it's the globalist elite that rule your entire nation.
@pluto4847 What happened to your country, when the Bills of Rights were signed behind your whole nations backs on New Years Day, when the bells went and you's were out celebrating?
Hey listen, the USA will break apart. Statistics say we can no longer exist as a Unity. So the best thing to do is break apart, and we will be much better off.Do you agree?
@pluto4847 I'm not sure mate, I really am not sure about that at all. I think your nation is best rebelling against the corruption and supporting Ron Paul.
The more people out there who support Ron Paul, and support a Revolution, the less chance the government can just place another corrupted president in power. You need to start voting and protesting to see someone like Ron Paul who is against the globalist elite, to take power.
@pluto4847 I like him as well, the fact he wants to reduce the size of your government is a start, and then reduce spending, that is what you call a proper president.
@CrystalCee1 CrystalCee, no offence mate, no offence, but seriously, from having learned from someone who knows the depths of economics, Obama is not someone you should like at all bud, if you hate the EU, you hate Obama.
And like I say bud, I would love an independent Scotland, but economically, it saddens me.

And lets take you for example. You are obviously a Ron Paul fan. Well very well. Mr Paul says freedom is all about doing controversial things.
We all must make decisions in our lives, and as long as we don't physically disrupt the lives of other people, we should be able to show our true feelings to one another.
In a free society we should be regulated by human rights laws, but if we decide to try or say new things, there should be no censorship.

We are all supposed to be adults, ans as human beings we make choices and live by them.
The only law should be laws to protect another person from harm, but if you decide to smoke, that's your choice. Its called freedom.

It's unfair, but it's the reality of life in Glasgow, you don't answer them back, the reason why you don't, is simply because they see that as a challenge, and only takes one moment of madness from one of them to attack. It happens a lot sadly.

@pluto4847 Of course, but there is a big difference for example between a pub in the east end of Glasgow for example, to that of a west end fancy pub. Suppose depending on area.

Glasgow's town is recorded as one of the safest places in Europe, yet the surrounding areas in Glasgow, tell a different story.

@DrinkToIreland My advice to you mate, because I grew up in the east end of Glasgow, if you come to this wonderful city full of wonderful people, do not pay attention to the bad of the city, the harsh and brutality is, all it takes is to answer them back and that's how fast one can lose their life.
And don't talk about IRA or anything religious that will cause anything, I avoid talking about Rangers and Celtic mostly for a reason, because they'll want to kill me over it. It scares me.

@ScottMcK9 Thing is I despise the IRA with a passion. I despise how people glorify them for butchering innocents because the "big bad british" are in northern ireland.

So I did. I bought a house at now less than $20,000. The mortgage was incredibly cheap. Yes its a countryish town, not much going here, but I like it.

In 1992, Ross Perot an In depent Party member almost beat Bill Clinton and George Bush SEnior. Ross's mistake was that he dropped out of the race too early, and when he re-entered the race it was too late. Bill Clinton was the favourite.
Jesse Ventura belongs to the Indepenent party and he caused an upset victory between the Govenor race between the Republican and DEmocrat.
Joe Liberman, Senator from the State of Conneticut is also an independent.

Looking back at my incident, did you know that it felt like I was stuck in time. I'm in my 30's now, and I look exavctly the same as I did on March 10 2004 when the Ford Escort smacked into me.
Its like I was frozen completely in time. FRiends who have not seen me in years say I have not changed one bit--except of course my leg. They lost some hair and went grey, but I remained the same.
THat's a good thing I suppose, but I really want to move beyond that experience.

@pluto4847 You can never fault that bud, it's good that you still remain that way, and don't worry about it. When you look around you in life and see what you have, that's all that really matters. There are a lot of people that end up dead in incidents like that. Plus you're like me in that sense, that you perhaps look younger than your age. Am the same.

I like the quiet life. Where I live there are a few Amish folk and Native American indians. Where I live, you don't need to make a lot of money to live comfortably, you just have to live within your means. I'm not rich, but I own some inexpensive property. The house I have is not bad. Its an older house, but it does me just fine.
I grow my own crops. I work two jobs.

Let me tell you Ron Paul's game plan.He is not really a REpublican.He jpined the REpublican patrty because it was a major party were he had the potential to win.
However, the USA does have third parties who also run for President.
You seldom here about them, but once and awhile third parties do enter the Presedential race.
In 1992, Ross Perot (a member of the Independent party) was a candidate alternative for Bush Sr and Bill Clinton.
Ron Paul really belongs to Libertarian
pluto4847 2 weeks ago
@ScottMcK9
If we the people can get Ron Paul on a third party ticket, he could upset the balance of power.
It doesn't happen too often that a third party wins, but it is possible.
Independent party, the Libertarian Party, the Green Party, are all alternatives to beat Obama in 2012.
Now for a third party to be successful, you must be a big hit with the people, and Ron Paul currently is.
So I advocate Ron Paul should run as a third party candidate with running mate--Jesse Ventura.

In regards to the case of Bush and Blair on war crimes, a High Court in Malysia has found both Blair and Bush guilty of war crimes.
I doubt Bush and Blair have any intentions of visiting Malysia, but if they do--they can legally be arrested under a War Crimes Tribunal in that coun try. That's good news.
But I doubt it will come to that though.
But just like thew Nazi's were held accountable for what they did, I think it is objective and reasonsable that they are not above law

There were no weapons of mass destruction. THat's what got America in debt.
In this particular case, I hope that the United Nations would review this case, and take charge of this situation. It was just plane wrong.

So often in life, we make our own obstacles. WE give excuses for not doing certain things. Things like money, the right friends, and being at the right place at the right time does help.

As far as what I was told, they need to devalue the currency to reduce the size of the debt. A country like Greece being bankrupt isn't exactly that bad, in fact, they're probably better off than us right now.
