Robin Hood = Communist ?!
. . really . . Think about it . . He takes it from the rich and gives it to the poor . . Now , nothing against what happened back then , but . . Robin Hood is said to have done what he has done hundreds of years before socialist ideas ( and it is clear that Marx' scriptures really were a blueprint for New World Order bolshevism rather than an idea to 'help the poor' . . .) but would he , by today's standards , be deemed a 'Communist' ? Little background . . Robin is said to have been a Saxon in Britain under Norman rule and the ruling caste of the Normans treated the Saxons quite bad . . . Robin Hood is said to have been an outlaw roaming in Sherwood Forest along with other outlaws . . . Together they robbed rich Normans who passed . . His arch enemy was the Sheriff of Nottingham . . . . who tried to 'bring him to justice' ( in this case meaning , stop his work . . .) . . Interesting . . By today's standards , I suppose , Robin would be classified as a criminal . . Yet you have to think yourself into the circumstances of that day and age . . . . The 'rightful' King , Lionheart , is on a crusade , while John Lackland , the usurper , treats the Saxons poor . . What do you think ? Two things more concerning that. . It would be interesting to know if 'Robin Hood' was his real name or if 'Robin Hood' was a reference to the fact that he acted incognito , people calling him 'the robber with the hood' or simply 'the robbin' hood' . . . . lol Second , believe it or not , we here in Germany have a character similar to Robin Hood called 'Der Schinderhannes' . . . . His real name was Johannes Bückler . . Though hundreds of years lie between the two . . Background on Schinderhannes . .He lived during the time of the Napoleonic siege of Germany and preferred to rob rich businessmen . . Interesting . . So , what's your opinion about Hood ( mostly his philosophy ) ? Anyway , he must have been very skilled . . . Good archer . . . Probably only topped by this guy . . Wilhelm Tell , Swiss freedom fighter . . . . A 'smooth criminal' . . |
