The Daily Show just trolled the NRA in the best way possible

Narcissistic Republican Assholes.

Is there any US club as stubborn, moneyed and dangerous as the NRA – otherwise known as America’s National Rifle Association, which continues to do all it can to derail any gun control laws?

Be it for us to highlight the worrying power and dangerous rhetoric of this elite, as now the Daily Show’s Trevor Noah has done it for us, presenting a spectacular segment on the show to take apart the group's rose-tinted outlook towards gun crime. Not to mention giving us a good look at its predominantly white and old demographic. Seriously, the conference crowds might as well be attending a Michael McDonald concert.

Sharp, wry, and frankly disturbing, let's hope most of America tuned in.

He started out life as a movie writer for numerous (now defunct) magazines and soon found himself online - editing a gaggle of gadget sites, including TechRadar, Digital Camera World and Tom's Guide UK. At Shortlist you'll find him mostly writing about movies and tech, so no change there then.
