cliven bundy prosecuted. is he right or is there something in it for him. up next the o'reilly factor. good night from washington. the o'reilly factor is on. tonight: >> he is not a victim and he is not a hero. the facts aren't in dispute. he has been using land that he doesn't own for over 20 years, and he didn't pay. he broke the law. >> why is the left so determined to make rancher cliven bundy pay a steep price in the nevada cattle controversy? we have a special report. >> sorry. >> [ laughter ] >> a a brand new scientific study says smoking pot will definitely hurt you. we will present the facts tonight. >> i feel sadness for the

tsarnaevs who were used as scapegoats. i don't think the act was carried out by the guys blamed for it. >> also ahead, why would a national news program put that statement on the air on the anniversary of the boston marathon terror attack? we will try to find out. caution, you are about to enter the no spin zone. the factor begins right now. hi, i'm bill o'reilly. thanks for watching us tonight. a low point for getting high. that is the subject of this evening's talking points memo. once in a while, the federal government can actually launch a successful public health campaign. the antismoking the feds trotted out in 1966 against tobacco has saved millions of live. overseas smoking is still rampant havening death and disease. winston taste good like a
5:02 pm
cigarette should and let's all go to marlboro country. in fact when i was covering the news in denver i was approached by a modeling agency to be the marlboro guy dressed like a counsel. i'm from long island. the anticigarette campaign in the u.s.a. reduced cigarette smoking from 42% of adults in 1965 to 18% today. but smoking marijuana is quite the opposite. that's on the rise. pot use is considered cool in many circles and above all it is politically correct. talking points has pointed out the foley of this many times. even as washington state and colorado have legalized the drug. now comes the new stud study published today in the journal of neuroscience which says smoke pot 'hurts your brain. study annualized young people 18 to 25 smoke pot about six times a week on average. data suggests the ingestion of marijuana creates brain abnormalities. directly affecting memory, decision-making, emotions,
5:03 pm
and motivation. since almost 20 million americans are regular pot users, this cannot be a good thing for the country and raises public safety concerns at the very least. if you know someone involved with intoxication on a regular basis, you all know they have one thing in common. they are selfish. their need to flee reality supersedes other goals, almost all of us have seen the tremendous damage substance abuse causes in a person. yet, marijuana, is painted as benign in many circles. the truth is that some some people can use booze and pot without most harm but most cannot. however, one thing is definitely true. once getting high becomes a priority, a person changes for the worse. and those around that person better watch out. so why are we glorifying marijuana? why? there should be be a campaign against pot just like there is against tobacco, should there not? talking points is not the morality police.
5:04 pm
but the united states of intoxication is not a good thing. finally, i know i will get the usual letters from folks who like their pot telling me to butt out, pardon the pun. my job is to look out for you, not patron nice you. if you care at all about your health and well being, you will read the journal of neuroscience. are you motivated enough to do that? and that's the memo. now for the top story tonight. reaction, joining us from washington. the author of the new best seller don't hurt people and don't take their stuff. a libertarian manifesto. so, as a libertarian, mr. i can by, i guess you disagree with me on, this correct? >> oh, you would be surprised i don't disagree with you on everything. what can why do from the federal government to liberate and enforce certain behavioral changes. tobacco is interesting.
5:05 pm
of course tobacco is legal and pr campaign to get kids to stop smoking is fundamentally different than with we have done with the war on drugs. >> and those are good points. i mean, i have not been a an advocate of incarcerating pot smoker in fact i would decriminalize it if you want to smoke pot in your garage or in your basement and don't bother anybody, i don't care. but once you get out into the public, then bad things can happen especially if you be are a young person. there is also the public safety issue here. so, you wouldn't object if the federal government went on a campaign not to smoke pot the way they did not to smoke? you wouldn't object to that would you? >> well, if you are using the tobacco analogy, they would have to legalize it first and then they would probably have to subsidize pot growers and they would subsidize a lot of nonprofits. >> put all of that aside. right now you have got state by state and then you have got the medical marijuana
5:06 pm
ruse which we know is a phony thing. federal and state. eric holder is now speaking out well, gee, -- come on. is this pernicious? it's not good for anyone to use pot to get high. now, if you have glaucoma or something like that of course we all understand. if you are telling me it hurts your brain which the journal of neuroscience clearly does, and you have got 2 omillion americans regularly using the substance, there should be a campaign to say you are an idiot if do you that as blunt as that you are an idiot, right? >> i'm all for a public campaign. i'm not sure that i want the taxpayers to pay for that but i do love parents. i love families. i love communities. i love peer pressure. i love institutions that reign in the bad behavior from the obama up. i think there is a lot of negative consequences when the federal government takes these kinds of things on. >> it worked in the tobacco
5:07 pm
industry. those public service announcements worked. look, nobody else is going to do it, the federal government is going to have to do it. it's worth the investment. in your book, which is doing very well, what is the main philosophy? what -- you know, most people to get them to buy a book is no easy task as you know. convince me to spend $20 on this book. what am i going to learn? >> a lot of people are asking about liberty and there was a time when you would have to give them a copy of adam smith's moral sentiments, all 700 pages. i really tried to boil that down into some common sense principles like don't hurt people. don't take their stuff. take responsibility. i think these kinds of values which are at the core of the libertarian philosophy happen to be the same values that made america work so well. the opportunities to succeed, the responsibility that comes with liberty. >> okay. and all of that is great. but here's the downside. the people who will buy your
5:08 pm
book and read it and agree with you aren't the problem. they are not taking people's stuff. all right? and they are not hurting anybody, generally speaking. the real bad people aren't going to read it. so what do we do? >> well, i mean, this is why i tried to translate it down because we love to use jargon. we love to use pie charts. one of the principles in my book is work for it we malign work today and i think there is something really cool about work. the opportunity to do something that people haven't done before. to take a risk to be rewarded for that. >> sure. >> i think we should talk that stuff up and go to communities that aren't already sold on ideas. >> maybe we need public service announcements showing that hard work makes the person. how about that? >> let's keep it private. >> all right. i think there is a role for government in getting mass communications out there. mr. kibbe, we appreciate you coming on. next on the rundown is the the federal government

5:10 pm
don't take pradaxa if you have abnormal bleeding or have had a heart valve replaced. seek immediate medical care for unexpected signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. pradaxa may increase your bleeding risk if you're 75 or older, have a bleeding condition or stomach ulcer, take aspirin, nsaids, or blood thinners... ...or if you have kidney problems, especially if you take certain medicines. tell your doctors about all medicines you take. pradaxa side effects include indigestion, stomach pain, upset, or burning. if you or someone you love has afib not caused by a heart valve problem... ...ask your doctor about reducing the risk of stroke with pradaxa.

5:13 pm
negotiate. some on the left want figurative blood. >> he didn't pay. he broke the law. we believe in a country in which we are subject to laws and can't ignore the laws that we don't like. i think that clearly if state and federal prosecutors look at this more closely they are going to find that he broke the law and he should be prosecuted. >> mr. reid is the son of senator harry reid and if i can get him on the program which i would never do. i would ask him are you a hard line immigration guy then? how about that? broke the law, right? something more here. joining us from washington kate obenshain and kirsten powers, both fox news analysts. what do you think, powers? >> well, look. first of all, i agree with you on the fact that his claim that the land, you know, doesn't belong to the federal government, isn't true. he has broken the law. okay. that's all true. but why does this law even exist in the first place? there were other people who actually took -- removed
5:14 pm
their cattle, sold their grazing rights and this one person said no, i'm not going to sell my grazing rights and the federal government has been persecuting him ever since. so the question is why can't these cattle stay on this land and i think the claim that it's because of some endangered species i just don't think holds water. why are they harassing this man? you know, what harm is he doing? >> make an example out of him because they don't want anarchy out on the lands in the west. it's a complicated situation. i read a number of things today, kate, about why the would come down on him because the federal government manages so much land in the west and there is a lot of fees paid to local and state by the feds because of this. so, that's why mr. bundy isn't getting a lot of support other than from his friends and from people who believe that the government is a fascist entity from the jump. how do you see it? >> well, it's interesting that the blm was able to make an exception for one of harry reid's largest donors,
5:15 pm
mr. whitmore and, yet, it can't make an exception because cliven bundy doesn't contribute money to harry reid. is he not powerful. he doesn't know important people. so, of course they will try to make an example out of him. it's interesting, the blm pulled back a little while and center for best of my biolol diversity. this fanatical environmentalist group came in and said, no, no, no. you have to protect the tortoises, you have to. so then the blm initiated again. i think there is a lot behind this. >> let's assume there is a lot of nefarious politics involved in this, i think everybody knows this isn't really worth the federal government's while to send 80 guys out there to round up cattle. knap had the solution. you can't allow it because anarchy is anarchy, you can't allow it put a lien on the property. the guy owes a million bucks, is he not going to pay it as long as that guy
5:16 pm
is alive he is not going to pay a dime to the federal government. he would rather go to the penitentiary than do that. put the lien on the land when he dies and things like that, can you come in and do what you want. that kind of diffuses it. it doesn't make it right. i'm not siding with the federal government here but i think that's the way to handle it would you being okay with that powers? >> yeah. that's better way to handling it than sending in armed people and free speech jones where you tell people what you they're allowed to aand not allowed to say which is completely unconstitutional or illegal -- it should be illegal unfortunately it isn't. no, i'm not okay with that i don't understand why this guy is being forced off of this land. if you go all the way back to the beginning like i said the federal government came in and they basically forced people to give up their rights to their grazing rights. and i don't understand on what grounds they were doing that other than the fact that they have to protect some tortoises i'm sorry the tortoises can coexist with
5:17 pm
cattle. >> i got the tortoises thing. but if you go back further than that, this happened after the mexican american war, all right, in nevada. where once we defeated mexico, all of the land that they had in north america came under the federal government. >> it's their land i agree with. >> you that hasn't changed. >> it's their land. i'm sorry is, this man not part of the united states of america? >> no. >> the federal government works for the american people the way they are treating this man is like why can't there be an exception. >> way to heavy handed. >> what are they charging him a million dollars for? grass? >> it's fines, it's, this it's that. >> he is not causing i had harm to anybody. >> no and except for the tortoises. >> i don't even think he is he harming the tortoises. >> first, can i welcome kirsten over to the right side. >> it's not right. it's a thinking side, i'm sorry. >> i will have to say though, bill, this is anarchy, cliven bundy is not creating anarchy.
5:18 pm
what you are seeing this response to is the anarchy of frankly a federal government that's picking and choosing which laws it is going to obey. >> absolutely choose. >> if you don't believe this, you are crazy, because, mr. bundy is kind of a tea partiesque guy and because his pals are, you know, in that we don't like the government, leave us alone crew believe me, belief me, there is a lot of that that's why the reids are involved. they don't like these people at all. i'm going to give kate the last word. go. >> i think there is a lot of money issues that the reids are involved as well. kirsten pointed out these first amendment areas and she should they should be illegal. what folks don't realize is the federal government didn't think it would be a big deal because these first amendment areas are in about 40% of our college campuses where kids are not allowed to say what they want to say. it's the same thing. the from government, the government, the left is trying to control thought
5:19 pm
trying to squelch speech. this is why people are so upset and angry. >> i'm getting upset. because do you know what i think is going to happen is that we are going to have armed agents sent by holder to shut down the factor because we are scaring the tortoises. that's going to be next. >> all right. ladies, thanks very much. directly ahead, will war erupt in ukraine? things are more tense than ever over there. we have an update for you. later, miller on how americans are reacting to possible war and the eric holder race deal. factor is coming right back. i h but i don't want my breathing problems to get in the way of hosting my book club. that's why i asked my doctor about b-r-e-o. once-daily breo ellipta helps increase airflow from the lungs for a full 24 hours. and breo helps reduce symptom flare-ups that last several days and require oral steroids, antibiotics, or hospital stay.

5:23 pm
already seized the crimea from ukraine analysis by former comeernd of nato general wesley clark says nonlethal military aid such as night vision, body armor should be provide to the ukraine government but president obama says no. considerable david hunt and lt. colonel ralph peters. general clark is is a democrat. friendly with the establishment. why isn't the president heeding his ad vice, colonel peters? >> because president obama is terrified of vladimir putin and frankly, wes clark knows that at this point giving nonlethal aid such as body armor is strictly symbolic. they need it a lot more than that and they needed it earlier. bill, what everybody is missing is that this is already a done deal. putin has won. eastern ukraine. the eastern province of ukraine is gone. the question is how long and how ugly the end game is going to be. and if he has to send tanks,
5:24 pm
and he will, but so far he has done very well with crimian model sending in special forces, grn military security agents. heys got a grip on those eastern cities and he is not going to let go and obama won't make him. >> the wild card here, colonel hunt is, is that if the ukrainian government in kiev sends over their forces and battles which it looks like they are doing, war is going to break out. it's going to be a shooting war. >> it's very possible that, yes, as ralph just head he has eastern ukraine and he had to because of the supply routes in crimea. very expensive, wesley is wrong. you can't give aid to -- there is a nonexistent government in the ukraine, not functioning. nonlethal aid is no aid. and we can't do it. >> but it is symbolic and shouldn't the president at least send a message, i
5:25 pm
agree that it's not going to turn the tide but it shows that there is at least involvement there no we have got -- we don't have a tank in europe bill, 60 othousand americans, people, soldiers in europe. we are leading nato. europe is not behind us. 10% of the american people don't want to do. this putin has won this so far i don't see us able to effect us in any satisfactory way. >> you think you just surrender? is that what you are saying? say okay taken? >> i am say would he go have to be realistic about this tell me what realistic is it seems to me you are saying surrender. come on in, vlad take what you want. >> he already did it ralph said he took the crimea. is he going to take eastern ukraine. he can't afford to take. >> that's what they said in
5:26 pm
crimea he can't afford to do that and now is he doing it. >> let's take a look i believe that the ukrainian government is going to fight to some extent, colonel peters. >> they are going to fight. they are not going to fold. they are going to go in and fight these guys. that gives putin an excuse to roll. in the world is going to watch us slaughter in the russians are going to slaughter the ukrainian forces? the world is going to watch? you think that's going to happen? >> the problem for ukrainian government is they don't want to fire on their own people. so, the special operators, paratroopers agents that putin sent in has surrounded themselves with local thugs a ring of local thugs, and then with a ring of people who are, you know, civilians but sympathize with russia. the demonstration numbers are small. but these ukrainian young soldiers don't want to fire on their own people. the russians are perfectly happy to fire on the ukrainians. the ukrainians are damned if they do and damned if they
5:27 pm
don't. did f. they do open fire that gives putin to go in if they don't open fire that gives him what he wants. please, mr. putin, please talk, let's talk, let's negotiate. putin has first taken over administrative buildings in three cities. now he is up to 11 cities in major towns his thugs all over the place. and we are pretending that somehow negotiations are going to get putin out. they didn't get him out in crimea. >> i don't think the president -- >> -- i think president obama really believes. president obama believes you can negotiate with cancer tumors is he a fool and weakling and sanctions could have hurt. real sanctions. >> do you see it as stridently as colonel peters that he is he a fool and a weakling, the president. >> this is not about obama. this is about putin and his aggression. we are not going to go have a third war on the plains of europe over. this we are just not again
5:28 pm
we don't have the forces in europe to counter them. >> i have you guys back in next week. think about, this all right. you have say we are not going to go to war over it, okay, i agree. >> no. >> he grabs mall dove have a and balkan states, go to war over that? that's what's going to happen. >> what if ukraine was part of nato now? does that mean we're going to go to war? >> you have to go ornate toe dissolves. you would have to go. >> not going to happen. >> all right, gentlemen, then we have no more nato. plenty more as the factor moves along this evening. miller on how americans see the ukrainian situation and. one year after the terror bombing. msnbc plays video sympathetic to the killers. wait until you see this. we hope you stay tuned to those reports. staying active can be difficult.
