The NRA Family Mourns the
Passing of Our Past President, Dear Friend, and Fearless Advocate,
Charlton Heston 1924 - 2008
Sunday, April 06, 2008
Statement of Wayne LaPierre
Executive Vice President of the National Rifle Association of
America
Today, my heart is heavy with the loss of Charlton Heston.
America has lost a great patriot. The Second Amendment has lost a
faithful friend. So have I, and so have four million NRA members and
eighty million gun owners. And so has every American who cares about
the Bill of Rights, individual liberty, and Freedom.
My heart is heavy, but not without a sense of pride. Pride in a man
who devoted his life to his profession with grace and dignity. Pride
in an American who devoted himself to civil rights, to correcting
injustices around him, and to standing up for what he knew was
right. Pride in a friend who stood with me and stood with fellow NRA
members to preserve our freedom for future generations. Pride in a
patriot who believed with every fiber of his being that our Bill of
Rights is the foundation of our freedom that makes Americans
singular among the masses of nations.
And now, Charlton Heston has passed that duty to us – the next
generation. I am as proud to continue his cause, as I am to have
known him as my friend.
But today, my thoughts cannot leave the Heston family. They have
always had my utmost respect and admiration and, today, they have my
deepest sympathy and most earnest prayers. And they will always have
my friendship.

Court Justice Antonin Scalia

advocates favor freedom, choice and self-responsibility. If someone
wishes to be prepared to defend himself, he should be free to do so.”
