Nugent on Charlton Heston
The great Charlton Heston pasted away. He played a big role in gun rights. I received an email from Ted Nugent passing along his thoughts on what Mr. Heston meant to him.
I was privileged to have the legendary Charlton Heston on my radio show in Detroit back in 1995. And there, as during many such memorable encounters as a fellow NRA Board Of Director and NRA President, he was everything the legend indicated him to be, and more. He defined intellect, humor, goodwill, decency, American spirit and dignity. As both awe inspiring actor, civil rights leader and US Constitutional activist, he lived the ultimate “we the people” participation and celebration. His unwavering fight for Second Amendment rights proved a courage unrivaled in the oftentimes unforgiving, fickle Hollywood industry, and he deeply inspired me and legions of freedom loving Americans to always stand up for the self-evident truth fueled American Dream. Mr. Heston and his warrior spirit lives on in the hearts and souls of freedom fighters everywhere.
In the wind, he’s still alive.
Ted Nugent
