The anniversary of 'Brave Heart' the movie?
Would? and when if?
You brave hearts became free because of a silly movie. It has always facinated me. Why? Was it the popular thing?
Or did you finally find reason?
Waiting for an interesting answer.
Ps.... should Mel Gibson be a hero? For auld' Scot... or for christ?

Wallace was just another Scotsman betrayed by the ruling classes.
As for shagging the princess of Wales...I don't think so!

Nevermind. You are unaware. Completely. I forgot you are a mindless commie. Sorry.

Originally posted by StarValleyWyIf you are referring to devolution, it was probably around 1999. Yes.
1999? On his birthday?
Did not the nation of the Scots become? Or did the Scottish parliament begin in 1633?
snark. Your lack of history is amazing.
If that was the exact date William Wallace defeated the English, I would not know.
I would have thought, if they were going to pick a specific date they would have used the battle of bannock burn's date or the Roy from the Corrie's birthday though.
Or maybe Tony Blair's birthday. One can never second-guess the deep feelings of sarcasm that run through politics.

Originally posted by shavixmirPoint for you. You at least make me wonder. I think that the 1999 vote in the British house was on the anniversary of his (only/biggest) victory.

But we Scots have had many victories: Bannock burn, the battle of 1745 (or quarter to six, as it is sometimes referred to) and...well, that's basically about it.
On the other hand we also defeated the poll tax! That was a good day in history.
