Heston spoke on the radio in favor of the 68 gun control act and thought Ak-47's and assault weapons should be banned . No love for a Fudd. he was Zimbo before his time. Notice you never see him with a semi always a Fudd gun.
This.
Some people here must have short memories. Heston was a pure fudd.
No, I haven't forgot. But I think he made up for it later in his life.
We (at least most of us) have made mistakes in our lives, especially when we are young. I know that I did so I'm not willing to hate the man for a mistake he has owned up to. He did a great job with the NRA defending our rights.
Let those that have never made a mistake throw the first stone at the man. I will not.
He did say this about it:
"I was young and foolish." - Explaining his endorsement of the Gun Control Act of 1968
And things were different in 1968, but you had to have been there to really understand what was going on in this counrty at the time. Many of us did and said things then that we totally disagree with today.
Not many people ever take responsibility for their mistakes, he did.
