Daisy Ridley Quits Instagram After Particularly Idiotic Online Harassment

Star Wars: The Force Awakens star Daisy Ridley is the latest celebrity to fall victim to online harassment, after she posted a tribute to victims of gun violence after Sunday's Teen Choice Awards on Instagram and Facebook. But after being harassed by commenters, the actress deleted her Instagram.

People accused the star of being a hypocrite, as her character Rey uses a blaster to shoot stormtroopers in the film. Again, because an actress used a fake space gun in a movie, some people believe that she can't oppose gun violence. Great.

While Ridley quit Instagram, her active Facebook account still has the initial post up. "I didn't get a great picture of the incredible group that came on stage but they were so brave. It was a true moment of togetherness. We must #stoptheviolence," she wrote.
