I agree Sir T. The "problem" with Heston, is his affiliation, with the left wing hated NRA. 'Ain't it amazing how simpleton that is? And to think, the left is the group, who always blast their trumpets about being for the rights of "the little guy". The NRA membership is made up *of* the little guys by *VAST* majority. But we can't go around *trusting* people to responsibly practice their rights now can we?

Thats what is truly amazing. We *can* trust a murderer to be released after serving their "life" sentence, we *can* trust abusive parents with custody of their children again, we *can* trust drug addicts to not relapse and continue a life of crime to support their habit(s), we *can* trust people who spike trees in order to kill and maim lumberjacks, we *can* trust the PETA crowd to not *actually* be all about illegalizing the consumption of meat and dairy products, but we *can't* trust people, of whom the great majority have absolutely no problems with society or the law in general, because they own a firearm.

The real answer is, it depends upon which rights we are talking about. With some, if you have any affiliation with the NRA, you are to be demonized *period* by any ways or means necessary. Sad but true.
