Every post you make diverts the conversation from the topic, which is why you make them.

What part of this is hard for you to comprehend ?

All my posts on this thread since your arrival on it have been replied to your posts . If the topic has been diverted it is you who set out to do so .
I know it , you know it , and all who read the thread know it .

Throwing a childish tantrum because you do not like the legacy that history has left us changes nothing .
Recognizing that our own ancestors made unwise decisions is the first step in laying the foundation for the future.
Whimpering that the big bad bureaucrats do nothing is in fact , doing nothing .

Getting off our arses and setting up the radio and television stations in the language medium of our choice will help to restore the tongue of our choice.

It has been done here in NZ, with numerous radio stations , and one television channel all broadcasting from a Maori perspective .
Maori TV is the most 'Kiwi' of all tv channels , it not only broadcasts in the medium of te reo Maori , it also honours and celebrates our fallen on Anzac day , all day , and it carries many indigenous programs , both entertainment and documentary , from many lands , in many languages including Gaelic .

If you want to help restore that that was lost due to the choice of the ancestors , you could set up a broadcasting station in the Gaelic .

The choice now is yours , make it a wise one

Tantrums? Is that a euphamism for not rising to the bait or accepting that there was a policy of discrimination? People are eventually getting access to Gaelic tv and it seems to be doing very well so far.

No , tantrums describes your posting history on this forum , especially the thread you authored .
Tantrums is insisting that there was a policy of discrimination even when you know ( because you claim that you did the research and read and understood everything) , that there was no such thing .

You final comment is at odds with some who have posted on this thread before your (re)appearance.
You seem be out of step with folks .
Is that because you are not Scots , or because you are not of Scottish descent , or because you do not live in Scotland , or all of the above ?

Thats was a good example of a tantrum from you full of irrelevancies and non sequitors.
