Scots at the Alamo

[Colonel MacNeal]

I was very upset when I read my daughter's Junior High "Texas History" textbook. The book made a great pretense at pandering to various ethnic groups in Texas, the Anglos, the Hispaniards, the Germans, and the Irish, but it said nothing about the Scots. So I decided to teach my bonnie little lass the Scottish history of Texas myself.

I've also looked at textbooks in other states, which say that the Anglos basically stole Texas from the Mexicans, on account of greed. The truth is that there were many Tejano soldiers and civilian Tejano patriots in the Texas Independence movement, that were likewise fed up with the centralized tyranny coming out of the Mexican capital.

So - I guess what I'm trying to say, is be aware of what your kids are taught at school - there's a good chance it's crrrraaappp!
