If I remember my Robin Hood correctly, he robbed the tax collectors and returned the "taxes" to the people from whom they were originally taken.

True, but back in those days, the tax collector was acting on behalf of, not any type centralized representative government, but on behalf of the whim of the landed aristocracy, i.e. the royals and their subservient gentry class who owed their position to their obedience of their king and had no compunction taking everything they could from the backs of the servant classes in order to feed the beast.

Now that I think of it, perhaps we are talking about the same thing. Some things never change.

If today were then, Robin would be accosting Chris Dodd or Nancy Pelosi and taking all they possessed and scattering it among the homeless in some flyover town.

The concept of someone robbing one of the Criminal rats.....Murtha for instance is a pleasant fantasy. Just that action would be hailed as wonderful by the American people as they become aware of the Democrat Criminal Enterprise.

Zorro was just such a man. Perhaps some scion of an old Angeleno family will rise up and bring the current mayor et al to justice. it would be a great movie.....Zorro 21st Century
