I wonder if he'll be turned into Soylent Green now. ;)

NB, Heston was a total douchebag.

Weird. Didn't care for the guy myself, but it is strange living in a world without him.

I think the point is that the civil rights movement is generally considered to have been a left-wing phenomenon.

He got old.

Give the guy a break, he's dead. Although he wasn't too smart in his old age, he was a classic movie star of yesteryear.

Now we're one step closer to movie's becoming even more shit.

I know this, but why do left wingers feel the need to base their beliefs on right wing bashing? They can do their civil right movement whitout that.

Lol bullshit, they are compassionate about other people that is why they are offering them the right to protect themselves against brokers, thieves, rapists and murderers. On the other hand left wing wants to take away people's right to defend themselves and as a direct result have them indirectly killed.

Well they are not going to give firearms as a free handout, that would be silly.

People with money are the rich folks, so that it be left wing or right wing they can get workarounds, if left wing is prominent they can employ cheap labors legally while getting themselves firearms illegally for protection and if it's right wing who is prominent they can get firearms for protection legally and smuggle some chineses on the side illegally for their cheap labor purpose.

But for middle class and especially low class citizens, left wing takes advantage of low class people as a mean for cheap labor while middle class gets fucked over as usual by having their rights taken away.

While with right wing, middle class and even low class to some extent can have rights who would only be for the privileged higher class if left wing would be prominent. In that case, having the right to defend yourself would not be something for only the ones who can afford workarounds, but for any law abiding citizens who can't/won't use workarounds to achieve means to carry out their rights of protection.

alright your a calm poster and i like the way you put your points across so mebbes this can continue without friction :)
yeah but do these rich people really need "protection" they sit in there rich houses in plush secure neighbourhoods imagining about peasants coming to rape and pillage them.. good hardworking honest working class folks meanwhile have to live in poverty with the rapists,murderers and theives on there doorstep.. hows that compassionate in any way shape and form?? i'm not affiliated to no right wing or left wing beliefs just my own.. just as many crooked arse white collar rapists and thieves as poor ones if not moar..they're just not honest about their crimes..

margaret thatchers son tried to stage a coup for fucks sake and he didn't even go to prison.. just a slap on his limp wrists and a wod of cash and he's free to walk back into the world ...

In an ironic twist, Republicans and NRA types are the first ones to call groups using guns against governments terrorists.

In his final film role, Heston was accused by Spike Lee of being an elderly Dr. Mengele.

I love this guy all the same. Saw the ending of The Ten Commandments two weeks ago during Final Four games and he's all like "lols, I can has heavenz now?"

Of course in left wing politics they mostly care about people who have earned money they can take.

However, idiotic debate aside, sad day - a great actor who has been in a number of classic films, he certainly made his mark. Strange thing is, I finally bought The Omega Man on the day Heston died, but I had no idea it had happened until today.

Unfortunately this applies to conservatives as well in the US.

No politician in the US will ever change the tax system to remove the "if you earn more than 1 million dollars in a year, you get to pay 15% in taxes, tops!" magic goal in fear of pissing off future contributors (INFLUENCE FOR SALE!) while state taxes go heavy and heavy into those who don't earn millions in a year. This results in a pyramid scheme that doesn't even have a positive result, convincing those who will never benefit from the hundreds of tax breaks available to the rich to vote conservatives, whose (as of current) only purpose is to funnel state money to the rich, as opposed to the more liberal candidates, who prefer to make this sort of thing proportional. In Europe, at least the politicians are equally slimy to an extent.

But yeah, Charlton Heston is one of those unfortunate fools who bought into the "if you believe strongly in one issue, you must agree with the others along the party line" bullshit that was infectious in the 80s. You can love guns, want terrorists dead, and be socially progressive too!

Ten Commandments is such an awesome movie! The most bombastic, absurd take on biblical material possible.

+1

i dont get why people are labelling me as lefty.. hate lefties, liberals(they banned us from singing blah blah black sheep at school but instead deemed t morally right to feed us on a diet of processed meat and chips :evil: ) and righties equally.. in uk all the political parties are just out to serve big corparations not the people and i imagine it's fairly similar in the us.. wheres my birthright piece of land ??this is our world not these cunts we each deserve a piece of land for our families and so do all the creatures we share our habitats with as a birthright ..the rich stole off us all years ago and theres nowt we can do.now they spend our money on champagne and yachts and helicoptor trips up to scotland on the taxpayers money to play golf for an afternoon.
thats why i dont understand how charlton heston could have put his balls on the line back in the day for martin luthor king etc and then turn into another mindless puppet..

thats it tho from me on this subject ENOUGH i no noboddy wants to hear my opinions anyway... there is no right or wrong answer but unless you question why things are the way they are nothing will ever change!!

Politics aside, anyone that goes to speak at an NRA meeting in a town a week after two kids slaughter multiple students and teachers at a high school is a fucking idiot. You can believe in something and still have tact. Many of these gun nuts are the ones that bitch about "fags throwing it in their faces" (pun intended) and then do the same thing.
