Jesus that Bill O’Reilly remark is unbelievable. That guy deserves to go to hell.

I would love to meet O'Reilly in person.
Then punch him in the gut and spit in his face.

what was the bill o'reilly comment?

He basically said that if you are uneducated then will be poor, and if you are poor its your own fault for being left on your roof with floodwaters around you while educated folk drive off in their SUVs.
I’m paraphrasing but that’s the guts of it.

"If you do not educate yourself or develop a marketable skill, the chances are you will be poor and powerless. If you react to that situation by committing crimes or becoming addicted, you will sink further into the swamp of hopelessness and your life will be largely meaningless... Educate yourself, work hard, and be honest. Then when disaster occurs you will have a fighting chance to beat it. If you don't do those things, the odds are that you will be desperately standing on a symbolic rooftop someday yourself. And trust me, help will not be quick in coming."

Can't have the rich without the poor Mr. O'Reilly. Fuck, I wish his ass was sitting on a roof somewhere stranded by flood water. I'd fly by in a helicopter and throw sog shit at him for like 4 hours.

Yet another form of unintentional racism.
To assume everyone wealthy is educated and honest is ridiculous.
I've met so many people with wealthy parents that will never have to make it on their own. Educated or not all they will never find themselves on a rooftop.
