My aunts, uncles, cousins in Midlothian all voted "Yes" which makes sense given the history our family has with the English. Re: Border Raiders.

Saw this posted on reddit earlier and decided to repost it here about today's vote on the independence referendum in Scotland for how historically significant this whole thing truly is.

"Two years of campaigning, 15 years of devolved Parliament, 80 years of SNP, 300 years of a union, 1000 years as a nation.
Today, for the first time in history, the PEOPLE of Scotland hold complete sovereignty in their hands for a few hours. Today, WE decide, not lords or kings, not the church or state.
Today the people of Scotland for the first time in history hold complete control of the future of their country in their own hands.
Alba gu bràth!
Now go bloody vote if for no other reason than that those before you could not."
MEAC, last one out turn off the lights.

all the clans mentioned so far in this thread are weak, faggoty clans

also- all of the Scots that are worth a sh1t left Scotland more than 250 years ago. What is left there are weaklings, Pakistani scum, and despicable progtard members of Parliament.

The very fact that a Scotland ruled by socialist degenerates can achieve independence by democratic fiAt alone just proves that the UK is ruled by effete pussies and deserves to sink into the north sea and drown. After being eaten by curs.

Kerr. You have to love the fact that in this day of age, you can be united with distant relatives through DNA. Our family has an association which goes out searching for all the relations. There are two main branches in Scotland. I'm from the ones in Midlothian.

Possibly of Viking descent, it is thought that the Kerrs arrived in Britain from Normandy with William the Conqueror in 1066. The clan name is rendered in various forms, including Kerr, Ker, Carr and Carre. It stems from the Old Norse, ‘kjrr’, meaning ‘marsh dweller’. Settlement in the Scottish Borders took place shortly after the victory of Robert the Bruce over the English at Bannockburn, 1314. That famous victory was a turning point in the development of an independent Scotland, and the Kerrs, along with other Borders families, would play an important part in protecting this emerging nation from outside aggression.

. The earliest some result may be released is about 0100 but larger areas like Glasgow won't be until closer to 6. Most people agree that around breakfast time, it will be decided. They double check each ballot. Some areas have 97% voter turnout.

The only doofus is the one who posted this absolute horsesh!te:

"Possibly of Viking descent, it is thought that the Kerrs arrived in Britain from Normandy with William the Conqueror in 1066."

There is only one clan of Viking and Pictish descent and that's Gunn.

How the fvck does a clan claim Viking descent AND ALSO land with William from Normandy in 1066? Did they have a fvcking CHUNNEL back then? The Kerrs shat themselves out onto the Norman plains after having been bitched by the Vikings 1000 miles away?

I hope you didn't pay some shyster in a kilt at the Charleston Scottish games for that Nigerian scam.
