help..wonderful white women/parents

I'm familiar with the fall of Rome yes and I know about the Roman soldiers leaving the Britons and they were attacked by hmm can't think of name but they were in the South of Scotland. I don't remember specifics. And I know about the Anglo Saxons coming in to help them fight but then taking over. And then the Normans took over. But no I don't remember a bunch of specific stuff of individual people. Again I asked was palladius not Roman nor learn Catholicism from the Romans?

 

Really. So your claims about the bad blood between Scots and British, if you check your dates, are a tad off.

You cited the HISTORY channel and Braveheart and you're telling *me* to go read a book. Please, girl. Do you even know what a primary source is?

And the bit below is clearly *not* your words, which website did you cut and paste from?

 

And you're telling me to go read a book??? Dear gods and little green monsters what *have* you been smoking? :weedman:

I lost my response I had typed so gonna make this reply simple. The fight for the Land borders and redneck origin is the Bishops war.

 

Regina,
I think I've made my point about my grasp of history.

I'll make one last point here, and then, as you always like the last word, I'll let you have it.

I grew up in Boston, where there was a history of each wave of immigrants being put lowest on the totem pole. For example, when the Irish arrived, they were treated poorly, and insults suck as "mick" were used freely. When they rose to the top, and the Italian immigrants came in, again, ethnic slurs were used. However. Ethnic slurs between differing groups of people OF THE SAME RACE are not racism. They are ethnic slurs. There is a difference. If it's one you do not grasp, I'd suggest you consult either the American Heritage, or preferably the unabridged Oxford dictionary.

 

i just don't understand why she is given the time of day?

 

HA I cited Braveheart cause even those that have never picked up a book in their should have atleast seen that movie and know things were not peaces and cream.

Dates off how exactly? Mass emigration to the US being in the 1600's right around the same time of the Bishop war. They were called rednecks from then on out. By 1776 they had started to prove themselves especially considering they were largely responsible for winning the war.
As if online websites are not enough. Born Fighting is a book. Read it some time.

 

I understood Fantastic to be a black male. I'm a white female. The slur was not being used against my ethnicity. It was being used against my racial group. And I don't find much difference between ethnic slurs and racial slurs. White Americans are racist toward Hispanics. That's ethnic racism but we still call it racism.

 

I have more than proved that I was not wrong to admit that I was wrong. I see quite the opposite going on. Evidence has been proven yet people are still denying it's an ethic slur although half a million sites list it as one and then they are denying Scot Irish origins when that too has been proven and anyone can look that up them self but yet they'd rather deny it. I do not agree with your definition of racist slur at all. That's like white people that say they are black people and they are n----rs. A racist slur is derogatory word against ones race.

 

I was bored. And so I gave her not only the time of day, but a lesson in the history of clockmaking ;-)

 

allright..i'll give u that. but hells bells...all i want to do is slap the shit out of her.

 

Yeah, when someone questions my knowledge of history by quoting Billy Ray Cyrus, frankly I do want to as well.

I restrained myself. I could have written pages on any of those topics off the top of my head, as they're particular areas of interest. But it sort of would have been like beating on a stuffed animal. A bit over the top.

 

I'm a history nut - I read primary sources for fun. I don't read *about* the founding fathers, I read what they wrote, etc. History is really my strength.

 

It's just something I've loved all my life, and I passed that love on to my son, apparently. He just graduated with his BA in History.

 

shut the fuck up and step the fuck off. U R A RACIST BITCH. welcome to my world. luv kAT.
