“Political correctness is tyranny; just tyranny with manners.” - Charlton Heston

October 4th marks Charlton Heston's birthday.

He was a champion of limited government, especially as it pertains to Second Amendment rights. He served as president of the National Rifle Association for five terms, only retiring when he was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease in 2002. Starting his involvement in politics in the Civil Rights era, he later gravitated toward conservatism, organizing a political action committee to support Ronald Reagan.

We suggest celebrating it by watching the sci-fi classic Planet of the Apes (1968) this weekend. To learn more about Heston and his legacy check out our article at Ammo.com.
