Bill O'Reilly here Monday, June 1st, 2020. You are listening to the O'Reilly update. Here's what's happening today in America. Anti-police riots erupt across the country, clashes outside the White House, injured 50 Secret Service agents, NYPD officers attacked with Molotov cocktails, some media actually justifying the violence. On the pandemic front, Sweden's death rate 10 times higher. and its neighbor Norway. Also, I had the truth about the riots and social justice.

But first, as you know, violent protests hurting dozens of cities across the USA, targeting police officers, looting businesses following the death in Minneapolis of George Floyd a week ago at the hands of police. More than 4,000 people have now been detained in 30 cities since the demonstrations began Thursday night. Fifteen states and Washington, D.C., have mobilized a National Guard to restore calm. Chaos outside the White House, where rioters set fires near the presidential residence. At least 50 members of the Secret Service were injured by bottles and rocks. President Trump was briefly taken to an emergency bunker after reports of a possible car bomb. Three suspects, including a member of the Brooklyn Community Board now in federal custody after tossing

Molotov Cocktails at police. Four officers were inside a van when the devices failed to ignite. If convicted, each rioter faces 20 years in prison, and if they are guilty, I hope they get the 20. media coverage of the protests was at times irresponsible with some commentators on CNN and MSNBC actually condoning the violence which has led to death and destruction dishonoring the memory of George Floyd. On the pandemic front, Sweden's virus death rate now 10 times higher than their name. neighbors in Norway. That's because lawmakers in Stockholm refused to shut down the economy to combat COVID. 4,400 people have perished in that nation of 10 million since February. On the home front, virus deaths in New York City hit the lowest level since early March.

No cost, no trials, no spin. That's thefirsttv.com. Time now for the O'Reilly update. Message of the day, the race violence currently enveloping the nation. If you were looking for insight or intelligent analysis of the brutal Minneapolis police killing and its aftermath, television news has disappointed once again. Most of the commentators are scared of saying something wrong and fail to provide desperately needed perspective. With lightning speed, the unnecessary death of George Floyd quickly became an opportunity for exploitation. Luters and anarchists stole and

destroyed, creating even more human misery. Hour after hour, day after day, Americans learned little about the reasons behind a vitally important story. What readers and viewers did get was reinforcement of their own beliefs, as fallacious as many of them are. So let's get down to it, beginning with the police. At present, there are approximately 800,000 law enforcement officers on the job in the USA. Most obviously are good. honest civil servants, but perhaps 10% are not. I use that number because human nature dictates about 10% of any organization is corrupt. Always been that way. That's the reason almost all police agencies have internal affairs squads that investigate misbehavior or incompetence.

Some African Americans believe a much higher number of law enforcement people are corrupt and actively target blacks. That feeling, often based on negative personal encounters they themselves have had with the police or other white authority figures. There is no debating personal experience. We are all shaped by it. The essential problem between police officers of all skin colors, not just white, and African Americans, is crime. Blacks commit felonies and misdemeanors at a higher proportional rate than any other group. That means law and law enforcement, confrontation is much greater, especially for black young males. Also, African-Americans are the victims of crime far more than other groups, and most of the time justice is not

achieved. Therefore, there is bitterness in many African-American communities over the criminal justice situation. The empty slogans and virtue signaling about race are almost painful to endure, Yes, there are emotionally disturbed biggest who diminish minorities. They will always exist. However, the vile embrace of prejudice is largely shunned in the American public square. But that doesn't stop idiot commentators from depicting the USA as a hateful cauldron of bias. There is, in reality, only one solution, and that is to teach the children well. But that's absolutely not happening in this country.

Many schools are simply holding stations with little discipline and standards of achievement. If a child cannot read, write cursive, do mass, speak properly. That child will probably grow up to be an impoverished adult without much hope. Therefore, Americans fed up with injustice should focus on the only solution that provides a measure of protection against it. Good education. I'm Bill O'Reilly and I approve that message by writing it. In a moment, something you might not know. Edward and his wife, Margaret, were looking forward to retirement. Edward started having serious health issues a few years before he turned 65 and had to take an unplanned early

retirement. The loss of income and medical bills meant Edward could not afford his expenses, including the premiums on a $1 million life insurance policy. with lapsing their policy for nothing, Edward and Margaret turned to Coventry Direct and were able to sell the policy for $130,000. If you own a life insurance or term policy that you don't need or can't afford, Coventry Direct can help you receive an average of four times more cash than you'd get from your life insurance carrier. You can even sell a portion of your existing policy and still maintain coverage with no future premium obligations. See if you qualify. Please call 1-800-888-3-7-91, or visit Coventryhelpsoniors.com.

Now the O'Reilly Update brings you something you might not know. All 50 states now easing social distancing guidelines for nearly 330 million Americans. Even New York City will allow some businesses to open beginning June 8th, a week from today, including construction, manufacturing, and retail. Despite the guidelines, new polling shows not everyone is eager to reemerge from the national shutdown. According to the Associated Press, just 38% say they feel comfortable attending a religious service within the next few weeks. Two-thirds refused to travel at all. The public mostly split on restaurants and bars. Forty-three percent are ready to hit the saloons. Fifty-five percent say, no, not going. We'll continue to eat at home. Very bad news for Hollywood. Just a quarter of

Americans plan to visit movie theaters after they reopen. Most studios have show big blockbusters until Christmas. The film industry raked in five billion dollars at the box office last summer. So this is the biggest disaster ever for Hollywood. Professional athletes preparing for pay cuts. Just 19% of Americans are ready to visit stadiums and arenas. Leagues now working with players in unions to renegotiate contracts, many, based on ticket sales. While folks may be squeamish about heading to the ballpark. Three out of four plan on visiting friends and family as soon as possible. Researchers at the Centers for Disease Control say one-third of Americans now display symptoms

of clinical depression due to the quarantine. So maybe a little socializing will help out. I hope so. What businesses are Americans looking forward to the most? The barbershop. 54% of adults rank getting a haircut at the top of the list after the pandemic. And here's something else you might not know. If you think the virus will end when scientists create a vaccine, you may be wrong. 20% of Americans say they will refuse to get a vaccine. Another 31% admit they're still not sure about it. Back after this.
