Bill O'Reilly here and I'm warming up. Standby for the O'Reilly Update Morning Edition,

but first.

On this Tuesday, I am thinking about the police. Do you ever hear the term qualified

immunity? It's a legal term that prevents criminals and others from suing cops acting

in the line of duty. Only the state of Colorado denies its law enforcement this protection.

But the progressive left is trying to do away with qualified immunity because the progressive

left hates the police. But if a restees can bring suit against officers, the justice system

will collapse because of the expense to defend yourself in civil court.

Criminals will get free representation from anti-police lawyers, but the cops would have

to pay all the court costs and defend themselves. So if you were qualified individuals would

even want to be police officers. And many on the job now would get out. Civil lawsuit

expenses routinely run into the hundreds of thousands of dollars. The progressive movement

sees policing as racist and is trying to destroy the traditional system. File-up prosecutors

in major cities have ignited a violent crime wave by failing to bring charges and thousands

of cases. We all understand what's going on. New York Governor Hocal has to know how

dangerous the state currently is, but she could not care less because her backers the money

people are anti-police. So she may do away with qualified immunity. If that happens, all

New Yorkers, including this one, will be in grave danger as many of us are now. This is

an abomination back in a moment. That is the morning O'Reilly update. More analysis

later on.
