I'd love to deal with this guy, if he comes to one of the games I'm at. I kid around and have fun, but have been known to get in discussions with the bad history and stupidity that seems to run rampant at games. I always do so with grace and a level head, but usually get guys off balance by my not getting mad and yelling back.
As for Glencoe and the many other "atrocities" that have taken place, the actual history behind them is ALWAYS far more complex than the extremely simplifed versions people argue and diatribe about. I've found that the ones who yell loadest are the same ones that know the least about the ACTUAL events themselves.
I'm sorry that you two had to deal with such a person. I only hope that some clansmen and s good historian is correcting him.
