tbh we fought on both sides, and were sort of king makers at times.Originally Posted by Lawrence001

some info here..
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clan_Grant
A number of Scots fought at Culloden. On the Jacobite side, this included clans Maclean, Stewart of Appin, Mackintosh, MacDonald, and Fraser, as well as the Atholl Highlanders. On the government side, this included clans Sutherland, MacKay, Ross and Grant to name a few.
It is important to remember that Culloden was not a battle of the Scottish against the English, but instead a complex campaign of religion, politics and beliefs. People from Scotland, England, Ireland and beyond fought on both sides. Clans were divided, and clansmen fought kin on opposite sides of the field.

Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

I read an obituary of Terry Hall, which reported that when he was twelve he was abducted by one of his teachers and handed over to a paedophile ring in France. Messed with his head understandably. That sort of thing could finish some folk, but not Terry. God bless him.

Yes, it's mentioned on the Wikipaedia page for Terry Hall. The depression he suffered after the even caused him to leave school at the age of 15.
