Remember the story we brought you about the cyclist, Brian Dooda, in New York City who was hit by a road raged Fox News writer, and then dragged for 200 yards?

The driver of the Fox News SUV, Don Broderick, was arrested on June 12 by the NYPD for fleeing the scene of the accident that involved an injury. The charge is a misdemeanor that may be punishable with up to one year in jail. Broderick was not jailed, but received a desk appearance ticket, so he’s free until his arraignment.

Last week, Bill O’Reilly mistakenly took on the ACLU for objecting to the use of racial profiling by the NYPD. It was actually the Center for Constitutional Rights that filed a class action law suit against the police department, but that’s not the real issue here…

O’Reilly cites a RAND study that, he says, concludes that 69% of New York’s violent crime victims describe the assaliant as black and 5% described the assaliant as white, which justifies his racial bias. What the study actually found is that, in 2007, cops arrested only 5.8% of the 472,096 people they stopped, 80% of whom were black or Latino.

Bill-O argues that the police are targeting people who are up to no good, or are acting suspicious. That would mean that over 80% of those stopped were in the wrong place at the wrong time, or they’re up to no good. But, 90% of the time the police is wrong, according to O’Reilly’s guest, Fox News Analyst Dr. Marc Lemont Hill.

Civil liberties be damned, Bill O’Reilly sums up his thoughts with more fear mongering diatribe: “If you’re going . . . you and the ACLU and all of your other left-wing friends are going to object to all of the measures that keep Americans safe . . . you’re going to have more dead people.”
