Because even when you think you can trust them, they will take everything even your life, if it brings them more power. And listening to this kinda proves her right. I mean we all knew the oppression that the crown put on people, but you dont really think about all of the innocent people killed for their power lust.

      Low Government Trust is surprisingly felt here in Newfoundland and Labrador, where we had our way of life destroyed by the Canadian government when we were united with them in the name of centralization. There's still a lot of people here descending from the same people who lived in fishing villages on the coast that were forced to move inland or to larger communities that hold great resentment of not only the national government but also the provincial government since the politicians who voted for union were also the ones who screwed us over afterwards until they were voted out of office

It was a silent trip. We all knew what was about to happen, what we were about to do. Did we have any doubts? Any private, traitorous thoughts? Perhaps, but no one said a word. Not on when we marched through their gates, not when the orders came down, and not when we began killing civilians. Not a word.”

    "We Scots can hold a grudge" there are two families in my area who are Scottish decent. Apperantly when the two of them came to America in the 1880s, one of the MacDonald boys stole, then killed a steer owned by the Glovers. To this day, the two families are VERY resentful of each other, it's not uncommon to hear about one of the younger boys from either family being arrested after getting into it with the other.

There were occasionally a few bouts of foreign country periods such as the French revolution and tid bits of the glorious revolution, especially the industrial revolution, but we never strayed away from French, British, and American history into other country histories such as Russian, Spanish or Italian. Aside for the foreign revolutions, my high school history classes taught in that order.
      We were encouraged to check out other foreign nation's history's that were not explained in detail or only had small bits of information based on the courses we were in, but good luck getting American kids too worried about sex and clout to care enough to bother.

      Yup. Schools don't teach a great deal of British history. A little bit of the Tudors, 3 years of WW2, and a footnote mention of the Romans. I didn't even know until adulthood that the Anglo Saxons came here from what is today Denmark. Still don't know the names of half the Kings of England throughout history. Wasn't taught anything about Napoleon, presumably because talking about him would mean mentioning Britain.
      Oh, there was one more thing. We were taught how evil we were because of the slave trade, right before launching into American history that we didn't need to know.
      Schooling in the UK doesn't teach anything useful. Not even our own history. It's just a place to put kids during the day, that is under the control of the State.

But when he brought up this tragedy he was dead serious and everyone in our group was shocked into silence when he explained the grisly details to us.

"Yes, we will have peace," he said now in a clear voice, "we will have peace, when you and all your works have perished--and the works of your dark master to whom you would deliver us. You are a liar, Saruman, and a corrupter of men's hearts. You hold out your hand to me, and I perceive only a finger of the claw of Mordor. Cruel and cold! Even if your war on me was just--as it was not, for were you ten times as wise you would have no right to rule me and mine for your own profit as you desired--even so, what will you say of your torches in Westfold and the children that lie dead there?

    “They have created a desert and called it peace” is a quote taken from an ancient British monarch (pre-angles, so Celtic Brit king) giving a speech warning of the Roman invasions under Claudias. The speech is preserved in the histories of Tacitus. The full quote (translated from the Latin to English of course) goes like this:
    “Robbers of the world, having by their universal plunder exhausted the land, they rifle the deep. If the enemy be rich, they are rapacious; if he be poor, they lust for dominion; neither the east nor the west has been able to satisfy them. Alone among men they covet with equal eagerness poverty and riches. To robbery, slaughter, plunder, they give the lying name of ‘empire’; they make a desert and call it ‘peace’.”

There's a reason why the Confederate flag design was based on the St. Andrew's cross, and why fried food and warm hospitality is widespread. Much of southern U.S. culture can be traced directly to Scotland.

    My great grandparents came from the Highlands (Chisolm) and settled in the Appalachian mountains in the late 1800s. I think you were correct, at least in my family, about Americans with Scot ancestry knowing a bit about our beginnings. Stories were passed down quite a bit. Pride was also ingrained in us from a very early age, now at 37 I am instilling that very same pride in my own children.

    The final comment you made, that the average American of Scottish ancestry knew more of the traditions than the average Scottsman isn't too hard to believe. Those of us from European heritage that wasn't Anglo (Scandinavian, Irish, German, Italian, Greek, etc) who grew up with those first generation immigrants have made an effort to keep those traditions and cultures alive and a part of us, not just for history or ancestry, but to honor those whom we love and miss. I grew up in a family apartment building in Chicago with my parents, grandparents (grandma was 1st Gen American, grandpa from Öland) and my great grandparents who were from Öland and Katrineholm. I learned to speak Swedish from them, their culture and grew up in the Swedish/American circles in Chicago in events they went to. I'm also half Irish and proud of that beyond "Let's get drunk on St Patrick's Day". America is a melting pot, but some of us still cling to those things that give us our subculture, where we came from, and the people who built our country we have today and loved their new land as much as they missed their old one. If we didn't have that, we'd be left with whatever "culture" Hollywood and the policians tell us we're allowed to have and I'll be damned before me and mine will bend that revisionist knee.

    Just found out my ancestors were apart of the last Jacobite rebellion. That battle was a wash. Lasted under an hour and the Jacobites were utterly defeated. 80 memebers of Clan Grant were enslaved and sent to Barbados. Only 18 survived in 3 years. Clan Grant even has a separate tartan to honour the slaves of Barbados. So I have some slavery privilege, too. And it explains how the last name Grant pops up in the Caribbean.

I'm proud to be a descendent of Scotland, and I'm glad to have kept the same brazen attitude of the Highlands like so many others here in the Southern United States (which has a LOT of Scot and Irish heritage, even down to our accent which originated with Scottish settlers, which is why we tend to be able to understand thick Scottish accents better than other English speakers)
