Ahh...what timing. Just got my NRA membership in the mail today, and just happened to be channel surfing when I came across Charlton Heston on CSPAN, speaking at Brandeis University in Mass.
Excellent speach. If you get the chance, watch this. It's good.
One comment that stands out...when asked about the "Mass. company S&W" making deal to make guns safer. This may not be a perfect quote, but I'll do the best I can.
Heston: "Well, first of all, Smith and Wesson is owned by the Brits. And I'm a little uncomfortable letting the Brits decide how our Constitution is interpreted. I thought we settled that back in 1776".
Got a big round of applause.

Saw part of it last night on CSpan. I agree that he was excellent, and he had the audience with him, even though they were mixed on gun positions.

I'll try and see the whole thing. Highly recommended.
