Sheryl Crow: If you don't support ban on assault weapons, you can't be pro-life

Sheryl Crow has joined the chorus of celebrities and legislators renewing calls for gun control legislation in the wake of Sunday's mass shooting, the most deadly in modern U.S. history. 

Crow, a Nashville-based country singer, took to Twitter on Tuesday night to share her thoughts on the topic.

"Anyone who does not fight for gun legislation to ban assault weapons cannot claim to be pro-life," Crow tweeted.

Her tweet Tuesday came after a similar one Monday morning, in which she also hinted she believed further gun control laws needed to be passed.

"Can we discuss the loss of rights of people going to a concert because of the lack of assault rifle regulations?" she tweeted Monday.

During the Route 91 Harvest festival on Sunday night in Las Vegas, a shooter identified by law enforcement as 64-year-old Stephen Paddock, of Nevada, opened fire from the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino onto a crowd of concert-goers below.

Jason Aldean was playing the final set of the country music festival, which had begun on Friday.

The shooting killed 58 people and wounded more than 500, officials said.

Inside Paddock's hotel room, police found 23 firearms, including semi-automatic rifles that may have been modified to accelerate firing. Another 19 guns were found at his home in Mesquite, Nev., and seven more at a home he owned in Reno.

Following Sunday's deadly shooting, Republicans in Washington weren't eager to talk about the prospect of stricter gun legislation.

On Monday, White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said it was too early to begin discussing changes to gun regulations.
