    robin williams is a genius

    Subject: Robin William's Plan (Hard to argue with this logic)



    You gotta' love Robin Williams... Leave it to Robin Williams to come up
    with
    the perfect plan .. what we need now is for our UN Ambassador to stand up
    and repeat this message.

    Robin William's plan.(Hard to argue with this logic!)

    I see a lot of people yelling for peace but I have not heard of a plan for
    peace. So, here's one plan.

    1.) The US will apologize to the world for our "interference" in their
    affairs, past & present. You know, Hitler, Mussolini, Tojo, Noriega,
    Milosevic and the rest of those 'good ole boys,' We will never "interfere"
    again.

    2.) We will withdraw our troops from all over the world, starting with
    Germany, South Korea and the Philippines. They don't want us there. We
    would
    station troops at our borders. No one sneaking through holes in the fence.

    3.) All illegal aliens have 90 days to get their affairs together and
    leave.
    We'll give them a free trip home. After 90 days the remainder will be
    gathered up and deported immediately, regardless of who or where they are.
    France would welcome them.

    4.) All future visitors will be thoroughly checked and limited to 90 day
    unless given a special permit. No one from a terrorist nation would be
    allowed in. If you don't like it there, change it yourself and don't hide
    here. Asylum would never be available to anyone. We don't need any more cab
    drivers or 7-11 cashiers.

    5.) No foreign "students" over age 21. The older ones are the bombers. If
    they don't attend classes, they get a "D" and it's back home baby.

    6.) The US will make a strong effort to become self-sufficient energy wise.
    This will include developing nonpolluting sources of energy but will
    require
    a temporary drilling of oil in the Alaskan wilderness. The caribou will
    have to cope for a while.

    7.) Offer Saudi Arabia and other oil producing countries $10 a barrel for
    their oil. If they don't like it, we go some place else. They can go
    somewhere else to sell their production. (About a week of the wells filling
    up the storage sites would be enough.)

    8.) If there is a famine or other natural catastrophe in the world, we will
    not "interfere." They can pray to Allah or whomever, for seeds, rain,
    cement
    or whatever they need. Besides most of what we give them is stolen or given
    to the army. The people who need it most get very little, if anything.

    9.) Ship the UN Headquarters to an isolated island some place. We don't
    need
    the spies and fair weather friends here. Besides, the building would make a
    good homeless shelter or lockup for illegal aliens.

    10.) All Americans must go to charm and beauty school. That way, no one can
    call us "Ugly Americans" any longer. The Language we speak is ENGLISH....
    learn it...or LEAVE...Now, isn't that a winner of a plan.

    "The Statue of Liberty is no longer saying 'Give me your poor, your
    tired,your huddled masses.' She's got a baseball bat and she's yelling,
    'You want a piece of me?'"

    1. I don't think this is Robin Williams. It isn't even funny, and if I recall, I think Robin Williams is pretty liberal.
    2. Probably not appropriate for DSA discussion as it leans way too much into the political---or the thread needs to be labeled appropriately. I thought I was going to read a comedy bit.
    3. Lots of flawed thinking here with little understanding of foreign policy or global economics (and how energy supply and demand works).
    4. Living in NYC and having lost friends in 9-11 and with various family members within two blocks of ground zero, I am highly sensitive to and angry with a lot of what went on, both before, during and since that ordeal. Nonetheless, xenophobic and misinformed reactions really bother me. I don't care if people have points of view that I disagree with--discourse is the only way to really fully form a solid opinion. But misinformation doesn't help anybody. This little post that I have received via email as well but under a different header (not Robin Williams related) is really fraught with illogical suggestions and conclusions.

    I hope that we try to keep these types of things off the boards. We got a lot of people with a lot of different viewpoints. And while everyone is entitled to their opinion and have every right to express their views in some of these forums--I just caution the clan that starting such discussions will invariably lead to conflict within the clan. Things like religion and politics tend to be better left for other group discussions--not for us. That's my humble opinion.

      That bit is from Williams' latest HBO special. Maybe it is a little over the top, but that is why its a comedy bit. I do feel General Zabka makes a valid point, political subjects can be touchy, and nobody has the exact same views....jsut be a bit more careful i guess


      i think its pretty funny though...
      Aim for the balls.

        My bad. I had read it in an email before--but unattributed to Robin Williams. Maybe I am particularly sensitive to this stuff being where I am from and given that my job is roiled on a frequent basis by such banter (Wall Street is really reactive to world affairs, as you can imagine).

        My post was not at all supposed to be an admonishment of Juggalo--who I think has always been a cool cat. It's just this type of stuff starts more conflict amongst friends than a lot of things. If others think it's funny, then I guess I can just choose to ignore it.
