Stephen Colbert, Trevor Noah and other political comedians responded to the massacre in Nevada this week with a variety of messages, many calling for gun control.
Although the attack took place after John Oliver’s show, “Last Week Tonight,” aired, he’s addressed the issue of gun control before, as has Stephen Colbert, in the aftermath of the nightclub shootings in Orlando, Fla., last year.
