Now, before you start to use the wide brush, which painted the Campbell' on me, I never said weather or not I agreed with the reasoning on the old saying "never trust a Campbell", I was just trying to flesh out the story. And one must remember, the painting of the whole Campbell Clan with this one incident, was done by people different than us, and in a time long ago. We can't judge the actions of the past by today's standards, only learn, move past it, and insure we do not repeat them.
