I'm Scottish, I live in Scotland, I'm a highlander and 500 of my ancestors died in that battle for the bonnie Prince. I don't want an independent Scotland and over half my fellow country men feel the same. Without Scotland there would be no Britain or her empire. The crooked roasters and bawbags that run my country are destroying my culture and heritage and they're Scottish(or at least born here) not English. We're lucky that Westminster can overule some of their decisions.

My wife and I just returned to the states from Scotland, while there we went to Culloden Moor battlefield as we both have Jacobite ancestry that fought and died there. We did not see or hear the ghost, but we did most certainly feel them. We both placed a small stone upon the carin, we both wept. I did not need to take photos, I shall never forget the place.

I find that extremely ironic and here's why. The Jacobites fought for the hereditary line of king James to return to the throne. The same king James who hated protestants resulting in the pilgrims who sought the new world. Reminder King James essentially was the God king of the Jacobites and like James they shared a dislike of protestants. So for a man who fought for the memory of James and house Stuart to seek sanctuary in America.....IS VERY IRONIC.

Everytime I hear this haunting song, it sends chills down my spine. The flower of Scotland slaughtered by a Hanoverian supported government army. Many of the Scots were only kids aged as young as 14 and were bludgeoned to death with a rifle butt after the battle and shown no mercy. Why the Hell can't Scots believe in themselves and their amazing country like the Scots who fought and died on Culloden Moor did?

Too many still suffer the Scottish Cringe, which has infected Scotland from 1707 as the Westminster Governments planned. HISTORY - TEACHES. To destroy a nation you must deprive the people of their national consciousness. Treat them as a tribe and not as a nation, dilute their national pride, do not teach their history, propagate their language as inferior, imply they have a cultural void, emphasise their customs are primitive and dismiss independence as a barbaric anomaly. Reinhard Heydrich, ‘Protector’ of Czechoslovakia for the Third Reich, and one of the architects of the Holocaust. Job Done - thankfully - some are now awakening.

Can you hear them, can you see them Marching proudly across the moor, Hear the wind blow thru the drifting snow, Tell me can you see them, the ghosts of Culloden. Many bravely fought and sadly they were slain, But they died with such pride and dignity, Their lives were not in vain, We still remember them, They fought to save their land, and died for liberty. Can you hear them, can you see them Marching proudly across the moor, Hear the wind blow thru the drifting snow, Tell me can you see them, the ghosts of Culloden. Thru the mist you'll hear - a lonely piper play, Listen carefully - you'll hear - a mournful cry, Swords and bayonets crash - as man to man they clash, They came to fight to live - and now they die. Can you hear them, can you see them Marching proudly across the moor, Hear the wind blow thru the drifting snow, Tell me can you see them, the ghosts of Culloden. Can you hear them, can you see them Marching proudly across the moor, Hear the wind blow thru the drifting snow, Tell me can you see them, the ghosts of Culloden.

Of course, during wars, I think it's easy for the soldiers to become "evil" even if they are on the right side -and again, your right side may be the wrong side for another-, but still if one fights for high ideas, to protect his family and his country, and he dies for them, and he does no wrong to women or children (I think of the battlefields in the past, where men fought each other), they deserve respect in my opinion.
