The article is very useful. It comes down to a question of respect. Respect for the laws of Scotland, respect for property, respect for tradition, respect for history and respect for institutions. Arms are personal property that have been commissioned or inherited by the rightful armiger and do not belong to a collective clan or surname. To learn about these facts and to discard them as rubbish is the height of disrespect and boorishness.
