    I'm English by birth but I have no real allegencies. :)

    Thats nice of you anyway.

    Even when people say they would die for their family, of course it means you feel so much you would give anything for their safety. But, it's kinda weird in that in dying, you wouldn't know that their safety was guaranteed. But all you could do would be to do your best to protect.

    People talk a lot of dying for your country but not of killing for it

    If I believed in a noble cause I would have no problem killing for Scotland.

    But... only if I believed it was right and honorable.

    I know, an honorable killing today is unheard of, but within some circumstances I believe it is possible.

    If the cause was great and needed, then yes, I'd die for Scotland.

    The UK? No chance.
