We joke and tease, but that probably needs to be identified as joking. The Campbell family was not responsible for what took place at Glencoe and for people to cling to those old misconceptions is bad enough, let alone try to carry a grudge over them.
The fact that so many Lamonts died at the hands of the Campbells is not a pleasant thing, but neither were the Clearances. And, as I've mentioned elsewhere, had some of those events not taken place, where would I be? Each one of us is a result of all the experiences of our ancestors, both good and bad.
