I think Robin Hood is a great example of the nature of villainry in general.

Most of us who have red it spend most of us thinking Rickhard the lionhart to be a great king and prince John to be the villain. It may come as a shock to study history and learn that Rickie-boy was brutal, flippant, irresponcible, dishonest in negotiations... and as statesmen and kings go he was worthless. Prince John took over after him and he was the responcible of the two brothers. He spent decades restoring the state funds Rickie squandered on the holy land and making up with the countless enemies Rickie had made. Rickhard the lionhart did not even look like Sean Connery. He was short and fat. [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img]

I am one to vote for magneto too. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] Moreso as in similar situation most of us would have little scruples of taking human life while he has plenty.

(BTW: who the ****, *****, ****** gave any of you the right to pinpoint Karl Marx as villain... are all people in this site from US?) [img]smilies/mad.gif[/img]
