Heston: unarmed, but still dangerous

By Guylaine Cadorette, Hollywood.com Staff

HOLLYWOOD,  July  6, 2001 -- Actor Charlton Heston, president of the National Rifle Association, to Us Weekly on why he is unarmed:

"I could get a carry permit but I don't want to do that. It's a bore. I've worn so many guns on my hip in Westerns."

Chuck Heston is right.   Carrying a gun [b]IS [/b]a bore.   Wearing a suit and tie is also a bore.   I do either, or both, when appropriate.   And neither should be controlled by government fiat.

It's his right to choose not to carry if he feels like it. Don't understand what point you're trying to make, other than possibly some dumbassed slam at the NRA.

I guess the added weight puts too much stress on his pacemaker!  [;)]

Why would the president of the NRA say something as stupid as that?  Is he, too, out of touch with the rank and file membership?  Sure, carrying a handgun is a bore--until the day you need it!  I guess since it is boring, we should just let the toothless NRA bargain away our rights.

Some of you guys just love making something out of nothing.  The tin foil hat companies are making a fortune these days.
