>> Dana: THE MAN ACCUSED OF
GUNNING DOWN A PROTEST SUPPORTER
IN PORTLAND INSTEAD.
THEY SHOT AND KILLED HIM WHILE
TRYING TO MAKE AN ARREST IN
WASHINGTON STATE.
THE SUSPECT SAYS HE IS 100%
ANTIFA AND DEFENDED HIS ACTIONS
DURING AN INTERVIEW THAT AIRED
YESTERDAY.
>> WHAT I WILL SAY IS THAT I
FELT THAT MY LIFE AND OTHER
PEOPLE AROUND ME AS LIVES WERE
IN DANGER.
AND I FELT LIKE I HAD NO CHOICE
BUT TO DO WHAT I DID.
>> Dana: THAT DEVELOPMENT
COMING AS PORTLAND NEARS 100
NIGHTS OF PROTESTS AND OTHER BIG
CITIES ARE BREAKING FORTH THE
POSSIBILITY OF MORE VIOLENCE
THIS WEEKEND INCLUDING IN
NEW YORK CITY AND CERTAINLY
OTHERS.
JESSE, LET’S GO TO YOU FIRST.
THIS IS A MAN WHO WAS THE FATHER
OF TWO AND HE HAD BEEN
PROTESTING ALL SUMMER.
I UNDERSTAND THAT HE FELT REALLY
COMMITTED TO HIS CAUSE, BUT HE
WAS MAKING A CHOICE, AND THE
CHOICE ENDED IN HIS DEATH.
>> Jesse: GOD REST HIS SOUL,
LEAVING BEHIND TWO CHILDREN, BUT
DO ONE GOOGLE SEARCH ON THIS
GUY, I DON’T WANT TO SPEAK BADLY
OF THE DEAD, BUT IT IS NOT A
PRETTY PICTURE.
AND TO A CERTAIN EXTENT, IT’S
NOT ONLY WHEELER’S FAULT WHO IS
A TOTAL FAILURE IN PORTLAND, HE
WAS PICKED UP ON GUN CHARGES
JUST A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO.
AND THEY DROP THE CHARGES.
THEY DID NOT EVEN PROSECUTE HIM
FOR IT HE WOULD’VE BEEN IN JAIL
AND NOT ABLE TO DO THIS.
TO GET ON DEVICE WHILE THERE IS
A FUGITIVE TASK FORCE LOOKING TO
ARREST YOU AND TRYING TO PLEAD
YOUR CASE SHOWS HOW ARROGANT AND
EMBOLDENED ANTIFA HAS BECOME.
THEY THINK THAT THEY CAN GET
AWAY WITH THAT STUFF.
THE VIDEO EVIDENCE AND THE
EYEWITNESS TESTIMONY HE TELLS A
COMPLETELY DIFFERENT STORY ABOUT
THAT SHOOTING FROM EVERYTHING WE
KNOW THIS WAS NOT AN ACT OF
SELF-DEFENSE.
HE WAS NOT SAVING ANYONE’S LIFE.
THIS LOOKS LIKE COLD-BLOODED
MURDERER.
HE WOULD HAVE GONE AWAY FOR LIFE
IF HE HAD NOT BEEN SHOT BY
DEPUTIES.
AND HE WAS SHOT BECAUSE HE
PULLED OUT A RIFLE AS THEY
APPROACHED HIM.
WE WARNED THAT THIS WAS GOING TO
HAPPEN.
WHAT DO WE SAY ABOUT CHAS.
YOU LET THIS THING GO, SOMEONE
IS GOING TO DIE, AND THEY DIED.
WE HAVE BEEN SAYING FOR 100 DAYS
IN PORTLAND THAT SOMEONE IS
GOING TO DIE AND NOW THEY ARE
DEAD.
IT’S FUNNY THE WAY THAT THE
MEDIA CHARACTERIZES THIS.
THEY SPEAK NICELY ABOUT THE
SHOOTER AND KIND OF DENIGRATES
THE GUY THAT WAS SHOT DEAD.
THEY ARE CALLING -- LABELING THE
DEAD GUY SOME RIGHT WING TRUMP
SUPPORTING MILITIA PATRIOT
MEMBER, AND THEN THEY WHITEWASH
THIS GUY WHO IS ABOUT AS RADICAL
AS THEY COME.
IT IS SAD.
THEY ARE LYING TO YOU.
AND I THINK THAT IT IS REALLY
GOING TO BACKFIRE.
>> Dana: GREG, WHAT ABOUT THE
FACT THAT THESE GUN CRIMES
BASICALLY DON’T GET PROSECUTED?
THEY LET THEM GO AND THEN IT
EXACERBATES THE PROBLEM.
>> Greg: IT IS NOT JUST THIS
GUY, HE WAS BUSTED AND LET GO,
IT HAPPENS IN A LOT OF OTHER
CITIES WITH HANDGUNS.
IF THEY CAN’T CONTROL THE
HANDGUNS IN INNER CITIES, HOW
ARE THEY GOING TO HAVE A
NATIONAL GUN CONTROL PLAN IS
WHAT I DON’T UNDERSTAND, I
APPLAUD THE FEDS FOR MAKING THE
WORLD SAFER BY ELIMINATING AN
ARMED MURDEROUS HOOLIGAN.
THE VARIABLES INVOLVED IN HIS
LIFE WHETHER HE WAS A FAMILY MAN
OR INVOLVED IN A CAUSE, I DON’T
CARE.
I REALLY DON’T CARE.
I THINK THE LESSON EVERY GROUP
NEEDS TO LEARN IS THAT YOU DON’T
HAVE TO GLORIFY A MARTYR BECAUSE
OF THEIR SKIN COLOR.
I’M NOT GOING TO CALL IN SICK
OVER THIS GUY BECAUSE HE IS
WHITE.
HE MURDERED A CITIZEN, AND JESSE
IS RIGHT.
I’VE ALREADY SEEN CERTAIN KINDS
OF LANGUAGE THAT ARE BEING
EMPLOYED TO KIND OF PORTRAY HIM
AS A MARTYR, BECAUSE HE BELIEVED
IN AND CAUSE.
I’M SORRY.
YOU KNOW, THIS STARTED WHEN THE
MEDIA DELIBERATELY MISLABELED
VIOLENCE PROTESTS, JUSTIFY THE
ACTIONS OF MISCREANTS.
WE KNEW THE VIOLENCE WAS
HAPPENING.
WE WERE TOLD BY PEOPLE IN THE
MEDIA THAT WE WERE CRAZY EVEN AS
THE KILLING SPIKED.
I THINK THAT WE HAVE NOW 50%
INCREASE IN MURDER IN NEW YORK
THAT WE MENTIONED YESTERDAY, AND
WE WERE TOLD THAT WE ARE JUST
SENSATIONALIZING THIS.
IF PEOPLE LISTEN TO US, THERE
WILL BE TWO MAN ALIVE RIGHT NOW.
THAT GUY AND A TRUMP SUPPORTER.
>> Dana: GERALDO, WHAT ARE
YOUR THOUGHTS?
>> Geraldo: WELL, I DON’T MISS
HIM.
I THINK THAT JESSE IS WAY TOO
COMPASSIONATE.
THIS WAS A CONFESSED KILLER, HE
LIVED BY THE GUN, YOU DIE BY THE
GUN.
YOU PULL A GUN ON A FEDERAL
FUGITIVE TASK FORCE AND YOU
EXPECT TO SURVIVE.
I MEAN, THAT SHOWS THAT THEY ARE
SO LIVING IN THEIR OWN BUBBLE,
YOU DID NOT WANT TO BLAME
MAYOR WHEELER, BUT THEY HAVE
ALLOWED FOR 100 DAYS THIS
ANARCHY, THIS DISORDER, THIS
DISRUPTION AND VIOLENCE AND
MUGGING, THIS USURPING OF
PRIVATE PROPERTY, TRASHING
EVERYTHING.
YOU KNOW, DEFYING THE RULE OF
LAW, KILLING SOMEONE IN COLD
BLOOD AT POINT-BLANK RANGE, THIS
IS WHERE YOU END UP.
THEY SHOULD HAVE HAPPENED 50
DAYS AGO, OR 100 DAYS AGO.
THIS WAS --
>> Geraldo: THIS ANTIFA FOG IS
WHAT THE PRESIDENT IS
COMPLAINING ABOUT.
THEY ARE BRINGING THEIR VIOLENCE
WITH THEM, CONSPIRING WITH
OTHERS TO DISRUPT AND TAKING A
NAIVE INNOCENT PROTESTERS AND
BENDING THEM TO THEIR DIABOLICAL
PURPOSE.
THIS GUY WAS A TERRORIST.
AND HE DIED AT A TO DEATH.
>> Dana: DAGEN, LET’S GET A
FINAL THOUGHT.
>> Dagen: THE FEDS ARE ON THE
CASE, REFUSING TO CALL IN THE
GUARD, AND NOT PROSECUTING MANY
OF THOSE PEOPLE ARRESTED, BUT
ATTORNEY GENERAL BILL BARR SAID
EARLIER THIS WEEK THAT HE TALKED
ABOUT RADICALS CROSSING STATE
LINES AND CARRYING OUT PLANNED
COORDINATED ATTACKS ON
LAW ENFORCEMENT PUBLIC PROPERTY
AND ON PRIVATE PROPERTY, GUESS
WHAT.
THAT MEANS, AND ANDY McCARTHY
WROTE ABOUT THIS THAT THE
JUSTICE DEPARTMENT IS GOING TO
BE CONVERTING AND LOOKING AT
THESE FEDERAL CRIMES CONVERTING
STATE CRIMES INTO FEDERAL
CRIMES.
CROSSING STATE LINES COUPLED
WITH KIND OF A LOOSE CRIMINAL
ORGANIZATION, THAT IS A
RACKETEERING ENTERPRISE.
SO YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT THE
FEDS BEING IN CHARGE NOW, WE ARE
TALKING ABOUT LONG SENTENCES FOR
THESE CRIMES TO PREVENT MURDER
