Good thing there’s no shred of truth to his humor. /s

Williams should leave the slapstick stuff alone. He’s too old. He’s good in dramatic roles.

No group has a higher perecentage of pedophiles than the homosexuals. Why doesn’t Robert Williams joke about them?

"So not only is Williams a bigot and a liar, he's a coward. No wonder he's so well received in Tinseltown."

That should leave a mark.

" I mean it's difficult because you have to realize that we just made major fun of the Catholic church but hey, they don't blow you up. The Pope will just excommunicate and you know I haven't gotten a lot of communications originally from him so... "

Turn him off. Don't go see his movies. Call and complain to the network.

Roger Hedgecock filled in for Rush Limbaugh today and made more or less the same comments about priests.

I’m sure Robin Williams probably already has made fun of his own religion, as well. Comedians usually make fun of things close to themselves first.

Williams suggests that most molesting priests are pedophiles, when in fact they are homosexuals.

The victims were post-pubescent males under the age of consent. The priests were homosexual ephebophiles, not pedophiles.

Williams was once a brilliant comedian. Drugs, age, and financial success long ago dulled his sharp edges.

I couldn't put it better. You did leave out his reputation for being a hack and for stealing material from other comics, but you got the big point.

Wish you’d been here when I was writing that response, Volunteer, as you’re absolutely right! I missed those points, darnit.

I knew there was a reason why I never listen to him. Give me Walter Williams anytime.

I saw the theater trailer for this movie, it’s going to be an absolute flop.

Someone put Williams out to pasture.
