Ok, so I'm just a dumb yank who probably couldn't tell you the difference between "England" and "United Kingdom"; but ahh, is Scotland thinking about leaving the UK to form it's own independent country or something?

I certainly don't consider you as some 'dumb yank' (and that's not a proposal to marriage) but yes...the SNP (Scottish National Party) are having their first taste of holding a majority in the Scottish Parliament so they now want independance.

You want to be ruled by Britain again? Rethinking your independance?

Wow, at least that certainly sounds ehh... ground breaking? Here in the US, such a thing would be earth shattering. In fact, if my knowledge of history is correct, and I'm understanding this current event correctly, I think we had a somewhat similar thing happen here around 1861? It didn't go very well. Or would that be blowing it all out of proportion?

Call me a heretic if you want, but I wouldn't mind it if we removed a star or two.
