I guess so. I don't see why not.


So, the mere fact that they're having this vote is self determination and the results of it really don't matter?

Hooray for self determination!

Too bad Lincoln didn't think of putting it to a vote. Might have saved about 600,000 lives.

And some kernel of American liberty, at least in the CSA.

yeah, but ya know England is going to have to be kissing Scotland's azzz a lot more now...

while I love Scotland, and having lived over there for 3 years in my youth...I can't imagine the UK, without Scotland...

and if Scotland would have gotten its independence.. ya know Northern Ireland would have followed suit, and that would have caused a major reflair up of the Catholics and Protestants in Ireland...for reunification...

All the separatists needed was 6% of the vote to separate.

It ain't over until it's over and it ain't over yet. This vote will come up again. According to the radio a lot of the young people voted for separation.

Empires always break up sooner or later. Great Britain will break up into the several countries that make up Great Britain.

Not necessarily so for a number of reasons. The Quebec question has come to a vote twice, and that movement has calmed down quite a bit since the last. As for the young, there are a few universal thrusts about them.

1. the love change
2. they age a get over it
