"Actor Kal Penn, who appeared in the TV medical drama "House" and the "Harold and Kumar" movies, and worked as a White House aide, was robbed at gunpoint in Washington DC Tuesday, his publicist said."

This may have just been additional incentive to leave that 'utopia' called Washington, D.C.
So now Interns at the WH have publisists, just in case they do something famous.
another “feelgood” story!
I heard it was Doogie Howser who robbed him. Then he stole Kal’s car and Cal had a crazy adventure trying to get to the White Castle.
Good if he’s unhurt and I wouldn’t wish it on anyone - but maybe he soiled his pants and will start to re-think dogmatic leftism, at least in relation to crime.
How can this be I thought DC was a gun free area
No, I don’t think that is the case here. He already had a publicist in Hollywood because he is a professional actor.
He has been in a TV series and several movies, so a publicist is ‘de rigeur’.
So now that this liberal has been mugged, will he become a conservative?
Just a little wealth redistribution, Kal. Your boss would approve.
You’re both hoping for too much.
The thief didn’t rob him. The thief was simply liberating him of the wealth Kal stole from some poor soul. And don’t call this thief a thief. He is actually a Wealth Re-distribution Agent for the Obama administration. He received his training in Zimbabwe before being transferred to the USA to train others in the IRS to do the same.
Democrat gets mugged in DC and it’s big news. Republican gets hospitalized in New Orleans and it’s a non-story for most media.
Dude just got his piece of the pie.
I don’t think this was a robbery. Kal just had some of his wealth ‘redistributed’.
Darn. I thought the reason he was resigning from the White House is because Dr. House was going to figure a miraculous way to bring him back to life after his "suicide". ;-)
yeah, Kal, let’s just call it a “Millionaire’s Tax”
the implementation of this particular “Millionaire’s Tax” may be a bit rude and idiosyncratic, and the Gubmint doesn’t get to dictate how that money in particular is “re-distributed” but I’m sure it’s gone to someone “less fortunate” than you, Kal, so you have no cause for complaint....
We that pay taxes get mugged by Uncle Sam all the time.
