Saw this comment on an article in the Scotsman and it’s got to be a piss take, surely!

Apparently this dude calling himself Da Bear is worried about our civil rights as there was a scare that maybe the swords used for sword dancing were to be banned under new legislation. It’s so Brig-a-Doon it’s fantastic.

Umm… You folks are so screwed … Sorry for the American idiom, but why the heck do you allow your Scottish heritage, traditions and identity be tossed down the politically correct toilet of such governmental tyranny? I have read enough Scottish history to see the deep burning fires of freedom that seared your hearts for 600 years, and now… what.. soft mannered droids, dependent on the failed dreams of a Socialist workers paradise , entire generations without passion and soul? How can any Scotsmen or Scotswoman look at themselves in the mirror each morning and not be ashamed of their lack of basic freedoms? No guns, no knives, no protection from criminals, no free speech, no privacy, almost no property rights, and no possible redress of the Orwellian nightmares of immigration and nationalization.

Wake up and smell the falafel’s…I hate to spread the unvarnished truth, but you folks are so screwed!

Of course, everything he says is absolutely true, by heck!…

…it’s just the image of indignant rage that makes me laugh.

I fucking hate “Braveheart” Yanks and their stupid sentimentalised view of Scotland.

And of course we all know that the US is the “Land of the Brave…”, well for those that still survive.

FREEDOM!! (As long as you’re rich)

No, the way to Independence and away from the ‘failed dreams of a Socialist workers paradise’ is not through the ‘deep burning fires’ of passion but through the democratic process.

Scots have a more realistic view of themselves and I hope we’re now seeing that Independence IS an option.

Just make sure that when the election comes round that you keep the faith and vote SNP.

Conservative and Lib Dem leaders in Scotland have spoken of their serious concern over Wendy Alexander’s policy shift on a referendum on independence.

Personally I’m delighted!

Bendy Wendy and her band of no-hopers are the best thing that could have happened to Scotland.

The longer she’s “in charge” of Labour in Scotland the better the chances of the SNP increasing their lead and finally bringing us to Independence.

These arseholes are so used to calling the shots that they can’t get it into their dull, thick heads that they can’t do what they want any more. We put up with them for generations and now, I hope, the Scottish people have finally had enough of this corrupt crony ridden bunch of crooks.

The dearth of talent is obvious - a choice between Andy Kerr and Wendy Alexander!

So, not much point in getting rid of her as they’d just have to replace her with another numpty.

I’m loving it all!

I really hope that Headcases picks up on this…

…there couldn’t be a better candidate - they could just portray her as she is!

At last most of the Scottish people have seen sense and booted the dishonest, stupid, Politically Correct, corrupt, crony ridden shower of numpties that parades as the Labour Party in Scotland.

Unfortunately the old heartlands in the south central belt still voted for them. How could anyone vote for the likes of Jack McConnell and Andy Kerr? Probably the most third rate politicians we’ve ever had to endure. When are you people going to wake up and realise that these buffoons bear no resemblance to the Labour Party your grandfathers voted for after WWII? They’re a disgrace. At least in the past they had honourable leaders like John Smith. I’ve never voted Labour but at least I respected their motives. This current bunch are more like and organised crime gang than a political party.

The poor old Tories struggle along with a presence in the extreme south of the country but, bless them, they’re as irrelevant as ever as far as Scotland is concerned.

And the Lib Dems? Well, they’ll hold the balance of power no doubt and sell their souls as usual for a little taste of power.

One of the more positive outcomes was the decimation of the also rans. All the various nutter Scottish Socialists were shown the door. Good riddance I say - they just added to the embarrassment that the Scottish Parliament had become. The Greens managed to hold on to two seats. That’s what happens when chaotic leadership allows pressure groups to take them over as the “Gay” lobby seemed to do.

So the SNP have ended up the biggest party by just one seat - and about time too. Just a pity more didn’t see the light. I sincerely hope that Alex Salmond is selected as First Minister - we need to let Jack have a rest (permanently I hope).

Lots of controversy over the voting arrangements. Apparently people were confused by the ballot papers. Well, like many others I think that if you’re too stupid to complete the paper, and it was simple, then you’re too stupid to vote!
