Salmond "We can take Scotland in two weeks"

That's crap.

Get her a Yes t-shirt then, it'll be love-bombs on the way to school tomorrow.

Yeah - it was pretty pish. Fair doos to her though - she stuck an extra badge on this morning on her way out the door.

...well my daughter got hassled and pushed about by some adults on her way home from school yesterday for wearing a 'No' badge. She was in tears.

Call the police? Pushed about is a criminal assault on a child, regardless of whether there were any injuries.

Anyway, sorry to hear it. Remember, you can always move South if it goes wrong. We're not all monsters.

Let's assume that you're being tongue-in-cheek with regard to your second point...
The only other conclusion would be that you prefer to teach children to lie, and to be ashamed of their own beliefs.

I recall in my naive youth wearing a green badge. 'Get him!' was the last thing I heard before hitting the deck.

Here's an interesting one. Scaremongering? Maybe. Or maybe not.

Teaching them a lie? Lie having religious education classes? The sort of lie?

Teaching them to lie, not teaching them a lie.

Teaching them to lie, not teaching them a lie.

Ahhhh. Remind me, what was the lie?

[The Spartan]

Ladbrokes reckon 46.5% for yes and Paddy Power a little over. Close enough to be fun, and certainly close enough for Yes to have a chance of squeaking in.

I personally hope they do squeak it, that way they can just get on with it and will be unable to blame anyone but themselves if it doesn't go according to plan.

[Old Greg]

Ahhhh. Remind me, what was the lie?

To pretend to support YES to avoid violent intimidation, as per your suggestion.
