British Prime Minister Theresa May on Tuesday expressed doubt that deadliest shooting in modern U.S. history will prompt America to act on gun reform. Gun stocks soared in the hours after Stephen Paddock on Sunday night shot and killed at 59 people and wounded over 500 others at a country music festival in Las Vegas, Nevada. Republicans leaders in Congress offered “thoughts and prayers” for the victims but no concrete calls to action. President Donald Trump didn’t mention guns at all in his responses to the shooting. The National Rifle Association spent more than $30 million to help Trump win the election.
