[QUOTE=Ray;6169291]
Getting closer to the truth ...he was only involved heavily with the NRA for 5 years .. probably to pay for his cancer treatment
Early in his career, he was one of very few Hollywood actors to speak out against racism and was active in the civil rights movement
publicly supported the Gun Control Act of 1968
picketed his own film because the audience was segregated
was Pro-life
fought political correctness
Overall a good guy ...
Can we please check your sources as this certainly does show CH in a completely different light?

Re: A Real legend
CH was elected to the NRA board of directors in 1997. He became NRA president in 1998. (thats nearer 10/11 years involvement by my reckonning)
The more you dig into this guys past the worse it gets. He seemed to be a really nasty piece of work...

He only looked good in that because virtually everyone else was running about in silly monkey costumes.
