The NRA Just Announced It's Shutting Down NRA-TV, and People Are Responding in the Perfect Way

The NRA Just Announced It's Shutting Down NRA-TV, and People Are Responding in the Perfect Way
NRATV

Burn.

The National Rifle Association (NRA) announced it would be shuttering NRATV, the organization's online video network. While old content will still be accessible on NRATV, no new content will air.

The move comes as the NRA has severed all ties with its former advertising partner, Ackerman McQueen, which operates NRATV. The rogues' gallery of personalities who dutifully rail against common-sense gun control after each mass shooting will also likely no longer be employed by the NRA.


This includes Dana Loesch. The far-right commentator became a familiar face on NRATV and the world with her defense of assault rifles. Loesch made waves as well when representing the NRA at a CNN Town Hall on gun control with the survivors of the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School massacre.

With hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue per year, it's often seemed that the NRA's monetary hold over Republican politicians would keep the legislative bulwark against common-sense gun control standing forever. But with immense financial problems, lawsuits, and a public weary of mass shootings, the tides seem ready to turn.

As for the demise of NRATV, people have one thing to say.

People are especially sending condolences to Dana Loesch.

"Thoughts and prayers," for those who may not know, is the oft-repeated refrain of gun rights activists after yet another mass shooting. Unlike legislation, thoughts and prayers do virtually nothing.

While the NRA is still very much alive, the hysterical media it peddled to subscribers will be a thing of the past.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
