Towards the end of his days, Heston was just a poster boy for the NRA. He wasn't actually doing anything other than spouting scripted rhetoric for them.

Michael Moore himself, is a member of the NRA.
Regardless of however easy he was, surely if he is capable of standing and giving speeches for the NRA, he's capable of airing his views? which is what i assume was Moore's reasoning....
