It's nothing new for the lowlifes in the lowlands, but this is a disappointing development for those of us in the civilized world.

Yeah, the Scottish are actually a really authoritarian bunch but try to paint an image of being very liberal

For non-Brits, "Scotch courts" are courts where the judge, thr lawyers, and the jury all drink scotch throughout the trial. It's been shown to make them fairer, basically, because it makes everybody involved more confident and more willing to take risks.

Ah, laddies and lassies, let me tell ye 'bout these scotch courts. It's a wild thing, really. The judge, the jury, and the attorneys all sit there sippin' on their wee glasses of scotch as they hear the case. And let me tell ye, they get quite intoxicated throughout the trial. Ye hear rounds of laughter and cheers echoing through the courtroom as they try to decipher the details of the case. It's a sight to behold, really. But just because they're tight doesn't mean they're not doing their jobs. They still manage to deliver a fair and just verdict, even if they've had a few too many highland malts along the way. It's all in good fun, and sure, why not? It's Scotland after all!
