They have destroyed the NRA Chuck Heston worked to build. I am done with the NRA.

That's funny!

Former NRA President Heston also supported banning guns. He did not believe that any citizen should be able to own an 'assault rifle'.

Heston on 6 May 1997: "…the fire power of these weapons is far more than a hunter or a homeowner would need. Why is it necessary to have those guns available anyway?"

NRA President Heston even supported the Brady Bill. How's that for a tough 2nd Amendment Supporter, siding with the Brady gang?

Look, I too want to be the only one on the block with a real assault weapon but we've got some embassy guys around here and they have what look to be portable mini-guns they can mount on their armored SUVs.

Uncle Sam needs to give me something much more powerful to meet the local demands.

Heston was a vocal Hollywood supporter of the gun control act of ‘68 as well.
