Dysartian
Tired Youngster On Edinburgh's Royal Mile
We went to Edinburgh to collect my repaired SIGMA lens and it appears to be working O.K. This youngster was laying his head down on some steps whilst waiting for his dad and I thought he is too young to be worried about hatred and division. This was in contrast to a surly-looking guy with a t-shirt that read 'Subjugated since 1707' (the date of the voluntary Union of the Scottish and English Parliaments). The adult clearly doesn't understand the meaning of the word subjugation. This relates to conquest by force of arms. Try Nazi Occupied Europe for true subjugation with its nationalist/racist murders of Jews, Poles, Ukrainians, Russians and mentally and physically handicapped adults and children. Try slavery in the Americas, or the demise of the American Indian for lesser examples. Mags has Scottish and English parentage and I have Scottish and Welsh parentage. We will both be voting a resounding NO in the Scottish Referendum in September and don't want the nationalist Balkanisation of the United Kingdom. We Scots are not oppressed and are already free, free to vote nay or yeah, which isn't oppression by any definition. :0)
