JUAN WILLIAMS (CO-HOST): I would say that the reality is, as the mayor and the police chief have pointed out, the man had a gun pointed at the police officer.

GREG GUTFELD (CO-HOST): Right.

WILLIAMS: And they have pictures of this, there's no dispute here. So, the reality is that even if it was a white officer, why are you tearing up the community? So, then you have arguments about the degree of poverty --

GUTFELD: Right.

WILLIAMS: -- Unemployment, and I think that if you look at the Milwaukee stats, it's extreme. It's a very segregated, very poor city and something that concerns me greatly as I was looking at some of the numbers on their education -- And Greg, they have the biggest achievement gap between black and white in the nation.

DANA PERINO (CO-HOST): Wow.

WILLIAMS: They are last in terms of black children being able to read at the fourth grade level throughout all of their public schools. You know, this is a school system or it's a population that's not getting educated and there are no more kind of hardworking, strong back jobs that used to fill the industrial Midwest. You know, --

GUTFELD: I mean, that could also be linked to the fact that 70 percent of black births are to unmarried women.

WILLIAMS: Yeah, this is the point of your -- in your comments, what struck me, there's no dad at home.

GUTFELD: Yeah.

[...]

JESSE WATTERS (CO-HOST): I always feel a little awkward as a white guy that's doing pretty well in this country --

GUTFELD: You should, you should.

WATTERS: -- To sit and cast judgment on these black rioters. But in this case, these rioters are either dumb, or racist, or maybe both because there were no whites involved in this confrontation.
