I've always noticed that people who attest to the 'low class-ess' of others, or the 'high class-ness' of one's self never really have much class
to begin with.
Just because the man is now dead doesn't mean my feelings for his acting, or his personal or political beliefs change.
He was a horrible actor. He over-acted in everything he did. Even when he played in a brief cameo role he felt he needed to hog the screen. Not
only is that annoying, but it pulls people out of a movie. You no longer believe you're there, instead you think "man, what a bad actor!"
And he had little respect or taste when it came to when and where to preach his pro-gun agenda. Personally, I believe that we should be allowed to
own and carry guns, with proper care. However, Mr. Heston took tragedy and attempted to turn it into pro-gun propaganda. He held little respect for
people undergoing the tragedy, and insisted on being an opportunist.
And, if he didn't have control of the NRA's agenda, then he was nothing but a figurehead with no real pull in his organization. If that's true,
then I have even less respect for him.
But, if you insist on judging me based on those ideas, then just call me school in the summer time:
No Class!!
