But if memory serves me correctly, John did sign the Magna Carta voluntarily, he was forced if he wanted to live.

He was pressed into it. But it was important in order to place limits on the power of the crown. But Robin Hood was more a protest against the power of the crown. He would be protesting the work against family farms, making the nation poorer, and pushing so many people into both unemployment/underemployment. Let’s not get started on outsourcing...
