This is beginning to remind me of the old phrase "A camel is a horse designed by committee." At this point I'd say let's chuck the lot and find something else to do. Personally, I like the first motto "By Choice not Blood" it had the same direct unapologetic guts as other "real" highland clan mottos. I fear that by the time we avoid everyone's delicate sensibilities (especially mine) we'll end up with something akin to pablum.

I appreciate PD's thought here...if it gets too politically correct, what's the use?
