I got this the other day at work not sure if Robin Williams wrote this or not but that was the what the email said, either way still kinda funny and something to think about.

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 days
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-Eleven 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?'"

It was, yes. And if I recall right, he also didn't write most of it. Just one of those things floating around the internet.

I posted this like... six months ago. It resulted in a 12-page argument about social services and The Eschaton sending $500 each to me and Tamral via paypal. I don't really feel the need to re-hash it, unless someone else wants to send me $500.

Did he really send it to you, Spun?

Yes, he really sent it to me, and $500 to Tamral as well.

The point of the sending of the money was based around the principle of the debate we were having. He stated that any charity case should get money if they asked for it, no matter whether or not you agreed with that specific charity. My response was that since he said (and obviously does) have large amounts of money to spend on charitable causes, that he could prove that he practiced what he was preaching by sending us the money.

We each donated the $500 he sent to a charity of OUR choosing, not his. I donated mine to the no-kill animal shelter where we got our kitten. I mailed him a receipt:)

TheE needs to contribute to the poor college kid charity...

For $75 a day, you too could clothe and feed a poor Asian child.

EDIT: That may sound like a lot, but keep in mind RL Polo's got jacked from $52.50 to $65.00 over the summer.
