"My feelings on it? It’s a crazy world we’re living in right now. And the first thing I think about is why did he have a gun? Why did he have a rifle? Why? Is he mentally ill? And how is he able to, you know, in Florida, I guess it’s a little easier to do that. But up here in Bucks County, you know, we keep tabs and things like that.”

4. SOUNDBITE (English) Adam J. Rodgers, attorney from Philadelphia:
++ PARTIALLY COVERED ++
“What has the world come to? This is a great country. But anyone who is trying to take another life, especially a former president, it’s just unspeakable, is unheard of. Life is life, it is sanctity. But it’s just unfortunate this man has placed his life on the line not once, but twice for this country. God bless him. God bless America. I hope it gets better.”
5. Cutaway of US flag
6. SOUNDBITE (English) Amy Baxtor, Bucks County resident:
++ PARTIALLY COVERED ++
“The first thought I had is that I hoped he was okay, also thought we need to do something about guns in this country, especially when I heard that it was an assault rifle. That is going to make assassination attempts very easy.”

8. SOUNDBITE (English) Mike Walsh, Bucks County resident:
++ PARTIALLY COVERED ++
“Regards the assassination of Donald Trump. I think it’s crazy. I think he’s good for our country. And I still don’t know why people are trying to kill him. I think it’s out of control. I think the Democrats and Republicans in this country should get together and work as a unit.”

11. SOUNDBITE (English) Jack Waddell, visitor from Oregon:
“And I think that with just this low level attempts on the president, it is going to embolden real threats to act. And I, I think this needs to be dealt with seriously. And I blame the current people in power.”

13. SOUNDBITE (English) Shane Ritter, visitor from Tennesse:
++PARTIALLY COVERED ++
“Like I said, I think there’s a lot of negative rhetoric right now. I think, you know, people are painting different sides in the worst possible light that they can. And I think that goes both ways.”

“You know, either one that gets in the office in office, I don’t think that’s going to be the end of the world. I don’t think the sky is going to fall. And I think people need to tone that down, listen to the issues and, you know, vote their conscience on that.”

STORYLINE:
Voters from Pennsylvania and those visiting Las Vegas reacted to the news of the latest apparent assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump.
With the election now just 50 days away and early ballots already being mailed out in some places, this year’s presidential campaign was among the most turbulent in American history even before Sunday’s apparent assassination attempt.
Many said they were shocked and denounced the political violence.
Some are questioning gun control measures while others are calling the current government to do more to protect the former president.
