Aged 84, Charlton Heston has died.

He was a fine actor in his day, and a good political activist (he supported Kennedy in 1960, etc.). He marched with Martin Luther King, and after MLK was shot, actually supported the Gun Control Act.

...yes, it all went horribly wrong somewhere. I, for one, am not sad to hear of his death. I'm sad for his family, for they love him. The man himself, however...


Let the prying of the rifle begin.
