BILL O'REILLY (HOST): I want to spotlight something that happened last week. Congressman Jim Clyburn, very liberal guy from South Carolina, put forth an amazing analysis of the Orlando terror attack to which I replied.

Now, I used a slap line as a rhetorical device to show my displeasure. That was obvious unless you are a complete moron. But the crazy left websites who routinely mislead their readers played it up as an actual physical threat. A few hours later, the Congressional Black Caucus demanded an apology. I very politely said to them “Come on the Factor, we'll talk about it.”
I also invited Congressman Clyburn on as well. Guess what? They are hiding under their desks. I guess they are afraid I would slap them. So, here's the deal. We researched the congressman, and we can find no mention of gun control in connection with the Chicago violence. None. This weekend, 13 more people shot to death in the windy city. At least 43 others wounded, including a 3-year-old boy.
That brings the total to about 1,800 human beings shot so far this year in Chicago. Paging Congressman Clyburn. Come on. If he were truly concerned about guns in America, he would have to say at least something about his fellow African-Americans being shot down in Chicago every single day, and it's been going on for years. He would have to say something, would he not?
