The Watch Sexy Assassins (2012)NRA had a pretty tactless response to the National School Walkout on Wednesday.
March 14 marks one month since the tragic mass shooting in Parkland, Fla. that left 17 people dead, and students nationwide are walking out of classes to honor those who died and protest gun violence.
On a day being used to remember children killed by an AR-15, the National Rifle Association, a pro-gun lobbying group, tweeted a photo of an AR-15 with the caption, "I'll control my own guns, thank you."

The NRA's tweet was quickly met with backlash.
Cameron Kasky, a Parkland survivor who has become an outspoken advocate for gun control, made fun of the NRA.
"This for some reason reminds me of a whining toddler screaming 'I'M NOT TIRED' while being sent to bed," he tweeted at the NRA.

Twitter user David Ruske pointed out that the NRA has become more extremist over time in its defense of guns. Ruske explained that when he was younger, he took safety courses from the NRA, which "provided lessons of value." Since then, he says the organization seems to promote a "dangerous agenda."

Twitter user Sabra Williams pointed out that the NRA's tweet didn't make much sense. Since the school shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary, an estimated 7,000 children have died from gun violence in and outside of schools.
