As sad as it is, this man had no respect toward the Columbine shootings and therefore I have no respect for him. His obsession with guns is nothing but sick.

Anybody who says this guy has no talent should be shot.
Pun fully intended.
Come on, he was an actor back when Hollywood made ACTUAL movies.
You don't have to like him, but you have to admit he AT LEAST has talent.

Kenzie says – reply to this

26

even if you don't agree with what this man did, or even like him for that matter, we should all still respect him, or any person that has passed away (well, maybe with Hitler as an exception). At least he didn't die like so many of the younger people in hollywood have due to addictions. Like someone else mentioned, at least he got to see old age! Congrats man! R.I.P
See You Taylor! says – reply to this

I suppose it's a good time to pry the gun from his hands.
Was a good actor, but a little fucked in the head with the religion of the NRA

Sucks that he died. R.I.P.

BUT! After what he said regarding the Columbine shootings, I really could care less unfortunately. Other than that, I'm sure he was a great man.

This guy is single handedly responsible for thousands of gun deaths because of his work for the N.R.A. You want to exercise your right to bear arm, put on a tank top. The world is a better place without him.

never liked him… the NRA bit. but sorry to his family.
JEWEL says – reply to this

41

How in the world can you say he didn't care about Columbine? What he didn't care for was being tricked by Michael Moore. I think it is sad because it signifies the end of an era with old Hollywood!
Guns are here for us says – reply to this

42

Guns rule! poor charlie is dead! screw all u who want gun control. Gun control would have NO effect on school shootings and such… if you belive so you are stupid! Just like outlawing abortion! they still will find a gun somehow if they wanna kill! and still get an abortion if they want one they will find it! so shutup with your rants on gun control. all studies have said gun control has NOT lowered and has has nothing to do with more deaths… duh… stupid cunts.

Look the man is dead, whether he loved his guns or not he was an amazing actor and it's a sad loss to Hollywood—I just watched The 10 Commandments again at Easter and he was amazing in that as Moses…. RIP

I was about 8 years old when I first watched Planet of the Apes back in the mid seventies - I loved the movie. Charlton Heston's character was very memorable.

Unfortunately, casting that midget Marky Mark in the remake of Planet of the Apes was a major mistake. Charlton Heston was 6'3" where as Marky Mark could easily be mistaken for a member of the Roloff family.

Heston Rocked!

he was such a legendary actor and knew his craft. he inspired other actor's and really did define what true talent is. I am sad because it truly is a loss that he is gone. He was incredibly and I am such a fan of his work. RIP you will always be remembered!!!

I miss the days in which acting required some true substance! nowadays everyone and their mom thinks they can act, just for the hollywood lifestyle. It really is pathetic. This man really was a true actor.

According to IMDB this man had 126 movies to credit to his name, how many of the actors today will be able to say that in 30 years, this man was a legend and a great actor. He will be missed.

Re: Tom – Responsible for thousands of deaths you say? Haha. You are as ignorant as your comment. What an idiot. LOL.

I didn't like him til I found out he was a great friend of Gregory Peck's. Peck said Heston marched with Martin Luther King so there was more to the man than just the NRA.

Sad? Don't think so. Aside from the fact that he had a long, lucrative life, I'm afraid
he was woefully misguided in his support for guns/NRA.
I live in Chicago and 20 or so high school students, have been killed this year by
hand guns.

One of the best actors of ALL TIME. Puts all the "so called" sctors of today to shame. Check the resume childrens.He actually deserved a star on the blvd. Now they give them away to any clown who pays the maintinece fees. One of the last of the good old days. So what he loved guns. He didn't shoot anyone! Make guns illegal and the criminals will always get them you tards! They are here to stay ladies. "GET YOUR STINKIN HANDS OF ME YOU DAMN DIRTY APE!" check out the westerns too………….RIP

Re: Zee – and outlawing guns would have stopped Columbine? mhmm… just like outlawing drugs has made people stop huh? NOT! u stupid fuck… control would have no effect on anything. it's proven. duh… look at all studies… search them on the internet even! it's a fact! gun control would do no good. columbine would STILL have happened just like anything else with drugs or guns. if they really wanna do it they will find a way. That's why they r now gonna allow guns in Yellowstone park! yay!

They're freezing him like they did to that Nazi bastard Walt Disney.

I am shocked at most of the comments posted on here. How could people say that they are glad someone died? Charlton Heston stood up for some very important issues. RIP.
AngelBaby says – reply to this

98

OK, he liked guns, so do I. I feel for the victums of Columbine and any other senseless shooting. But beside his beliefs, I believe a right in the US consititution, also I believe the Right to Bear Arms is there too. Charles was a wonderful actor, a beautiful person and a real talent. He was 84, my heart goes out to his family.

We have turned into the most classless society of all time. There is no respect for anyone no matter what the circumstance. It is the saddest of all time for us. I can only hope some get it…but no hope at all that anyone would….

Criss Angel Is Recorded Threatening To Knock Out His Producer!

Whoa! Criss Angel is NOT messing around here!

The Luxor headlining illusionist was recorded having quite the verbal altercation with Joe Monti, one of his magic producers on Wednesday, during which Angel is heard threatening to knock him out - and now he's had a police report filed against him!

Give it a listen (above)!

Furthermore, Monti later said to authorities that he recorded the meeting because Angel has a history of bullying employees!

He explains:

“I wanted him to know how demeaning he was. I created 50-60 percent of the magic for ‘Mindfreak.' I have no reason to do anything vindictively but I draw the line on violence.”

Scary!

Violence is never the answer, folks!
