Charleton Heston is dead? How did I miss that?

Charleton Heston was a member of the board back in 1968?
How did I miss that?
Charlton Heston lobbied for passage and the signing into Law of the 1968 Gun Control Act.
Charlton Heston did so with the full knowledge of the NRA Board.
Charlton Heston was until recently the Chairman of the NRA.
Charlton Heston has never, to my knowledge, called for the repeal of the 1968 GCA.
Is anything I wrote untrue or inaccurate in any way?
If it is, kindly correct me.
If it is not, kindly STFU.
TIA.

To all lurkers who love this great nation, but who will never sign up to FreeRepublic...thanks for reading this thread and thanks for being out there.
As I said before all of the the board of directors are all dead and buried who were "reponsible" for the 1968 gun law. They're "responsible" only because to lobby Washington at the time would have been a unlawful act according to their IRS code. The NRA was NOT a lobbying group.
Under the guidance of Charleton Heston, he and Wayne LaPierre went on a massive city to city tour during the 2000 presidential election. The result is clintoon blaming the NRA for algore's loss.
If that "other" gun group is so effective, why do we still have a '68 gun law?
I never claimed any other gun group was effective.
I claimed that the NRA has been responsible for more gun control legislation than the Brady nags could ever hope to claim, and that's a fact.

Not condo's a great big BORDELLO it's diplomatic turf so NY laws regarding prostitition wouldn't apply & you would be able to say that at least the place was obeying the truth in advertising laws.
If it is time to bury it, it's time to dig it up.
"There are plenty of gun groups that would have filed suit, [and won] if the NRA had not."
Do these Gun groups have the resources the NRA has? if they do, I stand corrected.
Thank you.
