heston also marched with MLK, along with Marlon Brando and others, to tell you the truth? Hollywood in the 1950's bred some real loons,
Look,
If Heston were truly a follower of civil rights, in the sixties, he would have understood that King did more with a march, than armies could do with their guns.
Remember the ole "winning the hearts and minds" of the Iraqi people meme? that was a very nice soundbite, but it was not practical given the fire power in Iraq
Heston, probably really believed in the sanctity of a gun, that's fine, but today, he would be silent; you cannot stand and justify the kind of weaponry people are so paranoid about losing, and also support the welfare and well being of the general public.
That general public includes children
It's not the guns Mary Anne, it's the attitude, you see it here, people are willing to obsfucate, and conjecture for the sake of owning a firearm
and the logic, why it's impeccable, the NRA wants more guns so the good guys can shoot the bad guys
I have one question, why didn't Lanza's mother shoot him first?
Yeah, I thought so, looks like Lanza pried the guns from his mother's "cold dead hands" doesn't it?
Very prophetic in my view.

Oh well... Moses was cobbled together from several different legends to begin with. He was bound to fall apart eventually.

Pace, you really touched a nerve with your post.
I just read the article ably Chris Kyle,Author of,"American Sniper," about when he had to shoot a woman with a child, and how that desensitized him to killing so many others in war.
Then came home to try and help others,ends up being killed!
These are the horrors of war unleashed on us by those we elect to serve us,then lie us into war! We did not learn
a thing from Vietnam!

Where he "had" to shoot a woman with child? sorry Mary Anne, that comes down to a personal and very real congress with one's creator
Anyone who states they "had" to shoot a woman and a child, is again, pushing off their own salvation into the cess pool of excuse, and obsfucation.
You cannot defy the Lord God Mary Anne, this is the bowels of hell that dissolves a person's soul.
There is no turning back after that.
Really, there isn't.

You seem to forget, those "dixie crats" who opposed became Republicans, or didn't you notice?
Were you even around then? or was there no international news in the Banana Republics back then?

Moses degenerated to speaking out so people can have their second ammendment rights...no wonder lefty has a problem with Charlton Heston. Turns out anybody who wants to have their constutional rights is in opposition with "the children".

Here is where it gets tricky for lying scumbag lefty..he can only name one or two people at best that left the Democrat party and even though Democrats voted against civil rights bills 86 perecent of the time on 27 differnt major civil rights bills since 1933 to present while republcans voted for civil rights 90 percent and the real Segregationists were still democrats like George Wallace of alabama who was voted by Democratas in the 1980s...the same state in which Democrats voted for JIM Crow laws in 2011 to get double school funding...segregation is alive an well in the democrat party today.

Translation: "I've spent the past year trying to reverse my long standing reputation as a racist troll."
I've noticed a bit of a gap in your rants. You have collected the SOP wingnut arguments for Democrats being racists, fact-challenged though they may be, but I have never seen you express a personal opinion that explains your fervor on race relations. Where does that fire in the belly come from? Are "some of your best friends black"? Or did you just get tired of being the poster girl for wingers who hated Obama for his color above all else?

The Republican segregationist with a black daughter. Sheesh....
“When Strom Thurmond ran for president, we voted for him. We’re proud of it. And if the rest of the country had followed our lead, we wouldn’t have had all these problems over the years, either” Trent Lott, December 5, 2003 (not 1963), on the opportunity lost to have a racist, Republican President.

How odd! On the day we were discussing the evil Thurmond, his Black Daughter doer!
And to think of the fools who voted for him,even after he became senile. I can still see his orange hair and vacant look while Lott was praising him!

He was lucky to have such a daughter. She could have tanked him any time she wanted to. Amazing that she never did.
But there was never any hatred for a man who once railed that "all the laws of Washington and all the bayonets of the Army cannot force the Negro into our homes, into our schools, our churches and our places of recreation and amusement."
Through the years, as he rose to power as an ardent segregationist and keeper of the status quo, they kept in touch.
Thurmond slipped envelopes of cash to her mother and the aunt who raised her to help with her care. When he was governor, Thurmond paid her tuition at then-South Carolina State College and visited her on campus, riding in his black limousine from Columbia to Orangeburg.
"Cynics would say that Sen. Thurmond didn't love Carrie Butler, that he took advantage of her and then for decades paid off Essie Mae with occasional checks and paid her way through S.C. State," said Bill Hine, a retired South Carolina State University history professor.
But instead, Hine said, Washington Williams chose to take the higher ground out of deep respect for her mother and, by extension, the senator.

I am really not sure how you could have any respect for Thurmond.Her Mother,yes!
Chances are her Mother was raped,and was too young to fight back. Even if not real rape,as the Republicans like to say,but rape because she was too young to give consent.
No matter,Strom was an evil man,one of millions we still have with us today.
