Is that why my mum doesn't love me and my dad anymore?

I'd say now there is a group of Scots that hate the English. There is also the largely better informed, more intelligent group of people that resents the image these "Scots" give to us by going around hating everything that fucking moves. Granted there is a history of Scots and English fighting, the key word there though is history.
I just get really fucking pissed off when people randomly say they hate the English, it seems that its excusable to be racist when its towards the English. Same goes for any racist comment really.
I think I'm ranting mildly but i don't care.
Storm Rider:
Scotch and English are different races?
Fuckin' British all look the same to me.

Nah, that's fair enough. A lot of English people really don't realise how xenophobic Scottish culture can get sometimes. My Grandma used to get a Scottish paper sent down (I forget which one) but she had to stop because she couldn't take their constant assaults on anything English using the slightest of excuses. And if you're a Londoner then you're doubly fucked since that's the base of political and economic power, so the worst possible place you could be from. Hell, a fair chunk of the rest of England has a problem with anyone from below the Midlands and west of Cornwall.

All up on the road to Glencoe/Fort William was graffiti saying 'go home' etc. Although I kinda agree with that, tourists are terrible things (I don't think I count as a tourist as I was there to hike up mountains, ski, and drink real ale, not just stop along the road and take photos of the landscape).
