Bill O’Reilly Says Las Vegas Shooting Is The “Price Of Freedom”
Conservative pundit Bill O’Reilly weighed in on the Las Vegas shooting, saying that, “this is the price of freedom.”
BILL O’REILLY ON LAS VEGAS SHOOTING
In a post on his blog, O’Reilly argued that “government restrictions will not stop psychopaths from harming people” saying, “They will find a way.” He sees no middle ground between the liberal left and conservative right, deeming the issues surrounding gun control too “polarizing and emotional” to be solved.
“The NRA and its supporters want easy access to weapons, while the left wants them banned,” he continued in the post. “This is the price of freedom. Violent nuts are allowed to roam free until they do damage, no matter how threatening they are.”
The No Spin News host called the mass murder “the big downside of American freedom” at the start of the post. At the end, he encouraged fans to tune into that night’s episode of No Spin News, in which he promised to analyze the horrible event, as well as current controversies like “Puerto Rico and the NFL.”

Once again, the big downside of American freedom is on gruesome display. A psychotic gunman in Las Vegas has committed the worst mass murder in U. S. history.
64-year-old Stephen Paddock, who lived in Nevada, began firing from a hotel window about 10pm Pacific time last night. His targets were folks attending a music festival below him. When it was all over, more than 50 human beings lay dead, 400 plus wounded. Paddock apparently killed himself as police closed in on him.
The murderer had a number of deadly weapons in his room and you can count on the gun control debate to ramp up.
But having covered scores of gun-related crimes over the years, I can tell you that government restrictions will not stop psychopaths from harming people.
They will find a way.
Public safety demands logical gun laws but the issue is so polarizing and emotional that little will be accomplished as there is no common ground.
The NRA and its supporters want easy access to weapons, while the left wants them banned.
This is the price of freedom. Violent nuts are allowed to roam free until they do damage, no matter how threatening they are.
