Campbell is an absolute OFTW weirdo. Personally I didn't have an opinion one way or the other about the rights and wrongs over whether or not he should be kicked off Social Media platforms - I just found it extremely funny that he was and that it would be a bit harder for him to grift from simpering transphobic fools such as yourself. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottsdad Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 This is all the baggage that this thread of opinion in Scotland is bringing up. Campbell speaks to a small but vocal minority in Scotland, trading on his earlier works with the Wee Blue Book. It has now pivoted to just piss and vinegar, with trans issues as the touchstone as it inflames passions. At least the May election showed just how minor this minority is. Campbell just comes over now as an angry man looking for something to be angry about. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a load of utter nonsense with crazed extremists on both sides of the debate and no room for any sense or decency. I think the percentage of the population with any interest in it is incredibly low. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
O_Kahn Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 2 hours ago, Thorongil said: What I will also say is this. Craig Murray has been found guilty and rightfully so IMO. I read his blog that morning and thought “jeezo”. He did commit the offence. Is prison justified? Yes, I think it probably is. I say this as a fan of Salmond generally and someone who believes he was appalling treated and set up by Sturgeon’s familiars. But Murray DID overstep the mark. deliberately. Other journalists have done similar and gotten away with it. I don’t honestly think there was intent from them though to reveal identities of complainants. I still don't understand why Murray didn't take down his article when warned to in the first place (in January 2020). Seems like he thought he was smarter than everyone else. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like he thought he was smarter than everyone else. That last sentence is it basically. You can argue the morality or ethics of the conviction but everyone could see where it was heading as soon as he did it except, apparently, Murray. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not too different from poor Tommy deliberately and publicly breaking contempt of court law to get the donations flooding in. Murray probably didn't think it would go as far as actually going to jail though. Edited July 30, 2021 by welshbairn 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only now am I even seeing the association you are making with the word “Ranger”. You are dealing with some paranoid blood and soil Nationalist windmill-tilters who will abuse anyone who doesn't conform to their narrow world view. Had you chosen 'Smith' as a user name and Celtic as your team and posted stuff they didn't like then at least one of them would have said such as, "Celtic fan but named after that b*****d Ranger from Yogi Bear". Don't make the mistake of thinking the ScotchNats on here are rational - or even reasonable. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to worry though, it's pre season and time is plentiful.
