Lessee. Heston was a Conservative. The face of the NRA. I wonder...and I'm just spitballin' here...could it be those two things that caused that knee-jerk Liberal reaction to those two things?

Some moments from Leah Remini's childhood will never fade. Like the afternoon she rode a graffiti-covered B Train with her big sister, Nicole — at ages 8 and 10, their first time alone on New York City mass transit. Their journey took them from Bensonhurst, Brooklyn, to Times Square — a seedy porn-theater mecca in the late '70s — and the Church of Scientology building on 46th Street. There, they met their mother, Vicki, a divorcee whose new boyfriend had indoctrinated the family in the self-fulfillment movement. "We went all-in, because Scientology is an all-in proposition," says Remini. "My mother thought she'd found the answers to her life and, you know, our future."
Three decades later, Remini is going home again. The 47-year-old actress and anti-Scientology activist is currently relocating from Los Angeles, her home since age 13, back to the East Coast. The move is a practical one: She's joining the cast of Kevin Can Wait, part of a major second-season retooling of the CBS sitcom that sees the departure of its current female lead, Erinn Hayes. Beginning Aug. 7, Remini will be seated in a Long Island soundstage alongside Kevin James, her TV husband for nine years on The King of Queens, for the season's first table reads. But right now, she's just trying to cram her life into cardboard boxes. "It's been really trying," she offers wearily on July 28. "I've never been apart from my daughter for longer than five days." Sofia, 13, has opted to remain in her current school and will travel to see her mother on weekends with her father, Remini's husband of 14 years, singer-actor Angelo Pagan.
Remini also will continue to produce and star in Leah Remini: Scientology and the Aftermath — the second season premieres Aug. 15. This enthralling A&E

Netflix has a documentary called “My Scientology” that’s good.
Rules are good.
Which is why John Travolta and Tom Cruise are still members, because they know if they ever left, the "Church" would spill the beans.
My niece’s church was lined up to have Leah tape one of her Scientology episodes there. The threats the church received from the cult were so vile and terrifying they had to cancel.
Times are different though. I hope this POS cult gets brought down hard.
Yes, any “church” that breaks the law merits a close look by the FBI. Churches are not exempt from criminal laws and should not be allowed to break our laws in the name of religious freedom. Those “churches” that defraud and enslave their members/victims, are not churches they are criminal organizations.

The threat that Scientology poses is a joke compared to the threat of islam.
I used to think the surest form of birth control was a NY accent.
Leah changed my mind on that, Bigly.
Glad to see she is going to Kevin Can Wait, I will give it a look see next season.
I walked into scientology center in mid-manhatan in the mid-70s as a teen. Got a free auditing (hold two soup cans while we check our meter) and the guy who did it liked me and hired me as his assistant custodian of the building and to help him do deliveried and installs of custom made beds. Scientology owned Loft Craft and we installed beds for John Lennon to high price madams. After about 5 months I was fired from both jobs because I would not use my pay to pay for their courses. Back then they had a priests collar that they would hand around to the priest of the day so as I guess to look legit?!? That’s my personal experience with the Cult:-)
Trump needs to simply CANCEL the tax-exempt status Bill Clinton gave the cult as a gift to John Travolta for “Primary Colors.” that will end Miscavage’s fake “church” once and for all
Every technique used against Scientology will be used against the Baptists, Catholics etc. when the liberals get back in charge...
Something about the NRA and his stance on guns.
NO! Remini did NOT call Charlton Heston a Nazi. That was on her SHOW "King of Queens," which she did not write. It was uttered by a guest actor who was also portrayed (unsympathetically) as an environmental wacko.
Well, Churches have been getting more involved in politics, especially the Catholic Church’s lobbying for illegals, so perhaps it is time to start taxing the churches.
