tv   The Five  FOX News  August 19, 2014 2:00pm-3:01pm PDT

2:00 pm
who pays? is it the taxpayer? will the taxpayer be on the hook as they were in los angeles? i'm going to see you tomorrow morning 11:00 a.m. eastern on the fox business network. that's varney & company and the five is next. this is a fox news alert. i'm dana perino. all eyes on ferguson, missouri as violence erupts yet again. police fired tear gas after bottles and molotov cocktails were fired into the crowd last night. the captain slammed criminals for the latest unrest. >> we cannot have that. we don't want any citizen or officer hurt. when you are shooting in apartment complexes and children are laying in their bed in apartment complexes and bullets are flying through the air, the old saying on the streets as they say, a bullet has no name.
2:01 pm
we do not want to lose another life in this community, and i am not going to let the criminals that have come out here from across the country or live in this community define this neighborhood and define what we're going to do to make it right. >> fox news correspondent mike tobin and steve hairrigan were present when things got out of hand. >> shots fired. now they are fired tear gas. that's in my eyes. a lot of tear gas. whew! my face is on fire. >> the dignified protesters went home at dusk. this is just child's play right now. [ bleep ] [ bleep ]. >> i'm on tv right now. >> i don't give a damn. you all on tv.
2:02 pm
i don't care about this [ bleep ]. you told this is child play's. >> steve joins us now. last night looked intense. how did the rest of the night go and how did today shape up? >> after that tear gas, things quieted down quite a bit just about 1:00 in the morning. today, it's a vastly different scene. we've got traffic moving through. probably about 60 or 70 protesters in total really getting the shade from the mcdonald's building. it's about 90 degrees out here. things ebb and flow, but then it gets hectic in the night. a lot of different groups have said they don't want their people out on the street protesting after dusk. there's a good chance we can have a quiet night tonight but we have not seen that so far. >> there's been a lot of people reporting 70 arrests, i believe. one of four are from a different
2:03 pm
place, chicago, detroit, texas, some parts of brooklyn as well. have you noticed people coming from other places to protest and are they also there to do looting and rioting at night? >> 78 arrests last night. of those arrests, only about three or four from this town of ferguson. a lot from missouri, but as you correctly point out some from california or new york. there's definitely a small sector trying to take advantage of this protest. what the police chief said trying to use it as cover to attack police. they are trying to keep their people back on the curb and trying to prevent an outbreak of violence. their numbers yesterday as high as a thousand over all. there are people with handguns and people who want to throw molotov cocktails and people who want to protest what they think
2:04 pm
is a racist divided city and trying to do that in a peaceful fashion. >> steve, this is gutfeld. it seems to me when i'm watching this stuff, the worse it gets, the worse it gets. meaning as the media attention becomes a magnifying glass, it seems to take something and sizzle and burn even more. do you feel the media is helping this or hurting? >> i think the media can give a distorted picture a little bit of things. when i go home and watch some of the footage on tv, i hardly each recognize it because the small screen can really capture a sense of violence that i don't really see. it looks like rome is burning when you watch it on tv and basically we're talking about an hour -- area of two square blocks where there's been street protests but the police didn't fire a shot last night. on the other hand, when you talk to people outside of these protests, you really do get the sense that people are angry here. that there's been racism here
2:05 pm
for decades and they are fed up, so on the one hand tv is giving a misleading picture that the whole city is on fire and it's not. on the other hand, there is a real problem here and we're bringing attention to it. >> andrea. >> steve, if you can break down the ratio of how you see the people there, the peaceful protesters versus the rioters because we've heard all sorts of information, right? we've heard another host on another cable chanl say it's mostly media in the streets. we've heard the president yesterday say there's a very small percentage of rioters and protesters, it's mostly peaceful. if you can break it down, give us a sense of what it's like on the street and who makes up the majority of what you are seeing. >> it really depends on what time you go out. as of now, there's probably about 70 or 80 people in all. around 6:00 or 7:00, when it cools off a little bit, we can see up to a thousand. those are peaceful marchers. sometimes people pushing kids in strollers. it gets bad around midnight and sometimes there's only 100 people left then, so we're
2:06 pm
talking about a very small amount of people, and among that 100, there might be, you know, four or five with masks on who are ready to throw a molotov cocktail or who have a gun. so a small percentage i'd say could be violent, but you know it's a tense stand-off when police are four rows deep with batons and helmets on and there's a crowd of thousand. that's all it takes is two or three bad people to really set off a spark that could turn things very ugly here very quickly. >> bob. >> steve, it's bob beckle. can you confirm something for me? i don't want to put you on the spot here. you've been very busy. done a great job. is it the case that ferguson police do not have to live in ferguson, to be cops in ferguson? >> they definitely do not have to live in ferguson. i think the officer in question here did not live in ferguson. >> that's what i thought. >> when you look at the two lines, it's basically white police, black protesters. so even though it's police and
2:07 pm
protesters, there's also a white-black division that's pretty clear. >> steve, it's dana. i wonder if you could tell us if the national guard and police department today do they have a new strategy going into tonight? >> i think that's one of the things that's been a problem that you are getting at. we've seen a new strategy every day and sometimes within the same day, several strategies. the one strategy that seemed to work was making people march. that calmed things down, thinned out the crowd, kept people moving and kept things peaceful. when they went away from that, that's when strubl really started. the national guard has been held off in reserve at the command center. we haven't really seen them front and center. we've seen s.w.a.t. teams, local police. a shift in strategy and a shift in command and even if you are not a expert, when you look at the police lines and seen some of the charges they have made and the show of force, you get the feeling of uh-oh, not a whole lot of experience, not a whole lot of calm confidence on the side of police, especially
2:08 pm
the local forces right now now. >> i was watching the stuff overnight. around 10:00 or 11:00, it felt likes things -- even the story felt like, all right, we've seen this now, and then 1:00 central time, your time, there was another police-involved shooting. a man was shot and killed. he was wielding a knife. police felt threatened. they shot him and killed him. i wanted to know did that spark anything that you saw going on there? does that have any effect going on in the scene? by the way, that's only about four miles from where you are standing. >> that's right. around the scene itself, it sparked some attention, small crowd gathered, making some of the same chants, hands up, don't shoot. they shot another one of us. right here, it's had no effect so far. when it cools down and night falls, it might have some effect. but we haven't seen it yet. checking with the missouri
2:09 pm
department of public safety. ferguson police statistics were reasoning -- rejected for gross errors. as i understand it 67% of people in the town are black, 97% of the cars stopped are black. two times as many blacks get frisked as whites. have you picked that sort of stuff up from blacks? even prior to this, do they feel there is a racial divide in that city? >> there's no question about it. we were standing out in front of target yesterday just talking to african-americans who are not part of the protest, who were coming out, and this woman about 40 told me, i avoid ferguson. i drive around it. those people, the whites, don't want us in their stores and we get the sense that it's a divided place that we don't want any part of. they don't like us, we don't like them. even if they are not protesting here, you get the sense that this is the place that's stuck in 1970. there's a lot of people who have
2:10 pm
some real frustration that's been building over the years. >> what about facts? have you asked any of the police officers or anybody within the police department why they aren't living in ferguson? is it because perhaps they haven't been able to find qualified applicants for the police force or are they actively avoiding hiring people in ferguson? have they said no we don't want to hire them or is it because of certain factors that prevent them from hiring them? perhaps, education, criminal records or a lack of desire to become a police officer? >> i can't answer the specifics of that question with facts, but a couple of things have come out since this crisis began and that is that the police here in ferguson are going to push for more minority candidates for their police academy. they are also going to make sure that they have cameras on their vests, on their dash, so we see
2:11 pm
spurred on by this incident some reforms headed for the police department in ferguson soon. >> the fact is the budget of ferguson police department or the town have zero dollars for minority recruitment. i can assume -- >> zero? >> zero, zero. >> let's not make steve get in the middle of this. he's got enough. >> steve, you are going to get your last question from andrea. >> you are in the middle of enough conflict in ferguson. eric holder is heading to the area tomorrow. i know the administration has been pressuring the police department in different ways, so over the weekend we heard a report that they pressured them, the feds not to release that surveillance tape, however they were lecturing them on transparency, any idea of what's happening behind the scenes? if the police plan on releasing more information, if they plan on indicting? what are you hearing from the department about how they are going to take next steps? >> i think the release of that
2:12 pm
video was a real surprise both at the county and state level and at the national level as well and it shows the real gap in the command structure between the very top and the local force, and i imagine the local police feel real slighted by how they have been portrayed in the media so far. but the story is likely to take on more national attention in the days ahead with this thursday day of national rage and then a funeral for michael brown on monday. could get a lot of real national attention as this story expands beyond ferguson. >> all right, steve, thank you so much for being with us this afternoon. >> thank you. >> when we come back, greg on the media's role in stoking ferguson's flames, will they care about the city after they jump to the next story? that's next on "the five." p÷ú
2:13 pm
2:14 pm
2:15 pm
2:16 pm
the media, like humanity, can only handle two sides to a story, and they almost always flock to one side and it's
2:17 pm
david, never goliath, even if goliath might be right. it's a side dictated by decades of pop culture deemg what's cool and what isn't. who needs balance when buffalo springfield tells you there's something happening here. there aren't two sides to ferguson. there are lots. at least four. aside from protesters and the law. you've got insiders and outsiders those who stop by for the racket and those who arrive as tunists and are gone. reporters find their flame in the action. al sharpton never find a spotlight he didn't like. the pain and suffering of others is a small price to pay for his stardom. once these outsiders leave, the only people left are those who can't. shop owners don't happily return
2:18 pm
to their huffington post podcast. some has been fair. one in particular -- >> rhymes with pnn. >> qle yes. it does remind pnn and the c stands for the cops not needed network. dr. michael baden couldn't have been more clear. he said there's no specific series of event that this autopsy can confirm.
2:19 pm
there's no specific #act pattern, yet on the air one of the an kors said the results of this autopsy now confirm what protesters believe to be true. reporting that as fact. that is completely untrue. it's irresponsible, leading the guest is very irresponsible and these ear buds that i emailed last night, the reporter for the huffington post, i think we have the full screen really wanted these ear plugs to be rubber bullets, he put out a tweet can anyone confirm are these rubber bullets? no. when they do leave, you are going to have a lot of those business owners left to pick up the pieces. >> eric, we just heard talking about the up coming day of rage. is that something reporters should be talking about?
2:20 pm
>> coming up. >> he's reporting what's going on down there. that's what cable news is right. you got 24-7. you want to know exactly what's going on. this happens to be a story. it's incredible. i analyzed the ratings on these things. you can go and find out by quarter hours, 15-minute chunks of time. shows we'll be handling this situation in missouri will rating here. they will go off and do another the ratings wi they will go back to it later and the ratings will go back up. there's an appetite by the consuming public. they want to see the looters shooting the window out and running in there. they want to see -- they are sitting from home from wherever they are and go wow, can you imagine what's going on there. the problem is that poor storm owner is going can you imagine what's going on here? >> looters are making money for somebody. >> how is that helping the cause, the michael brown cause or the incarceration or arrest
2:21 pm
rate amongst african-americans in a community. that doesn't help. >> it's the chicken and egg question, does the chaos incite more -- if the media incite more chaos? >> everybody says they want this get this situation calmed down, they made a pact and walked away, and nobody was going to film it, would there be reyots? maybe, maybe not. everybody has their own phone. the story is going to be covered. what steve is saying maybe this is a story that needed to be exposed. if people in ferguson feel that strongly about a racial divide, maybe this is something that had to be talked about. >> joy, true. bob, another night of riots, means another night of award-winning photography which would guarantee another night of rioting. it's like a snowball of suffering. >> the sad part about this these
2:22 pm
punks that come from out of town, they are there to incite riot or to steal. i would bet you when all of said and done, most of people were out of towners. all of them should be lock up quick. it is seems to me that for cnn, you know, i understand exactly what you are saying about the baden thing. he did not draw a conclusion. yeah, you have to look at it two ways. when you say conclusions, you can't draw conclusions. there aren't enough facts here. but if you are somebody who lives in ferguson where you believe that the police are racist and you see that these gunshot wounds are coming down your arm like this, they are going to assume, they are going to assume without full evidence that this kid had his hands up in the air. now, i don't know what happened. i noef -- know if this kid was tackled a lot of cop. does that mean that the guy was
2:23 pm
not charging him? probably not. does it mean thq people in ferguson believe it? >> you mean charging him. it's very confusing to all of us. what about the people -- like in a couple of months, it will be ferguson but worse because everybody had left and there would be shop keepers who were in debt because they had to repair all of these displays and windows. >> and a lot of stories about how the economy is driving this even more. how does this help the economy? how does this help the police force? i mean, if this is a region of the country that has deep seated racial divisions, i don't know how you begin to put the pieces back together after what just happened, especially after the cameras leave? >> it's a slow burn. it takes -- it will take many years. shops will leave and people will have to travel farther in order to get services or people have to live farther out in order to work in ferguson. >> and there's one possible silver lining to this whole thing and the coverage in seeing what's going on, that the
2:24 pm
african-american community in there can vote, they can vote in the people they want, they can vote in the town council people and have those town council people hire cops that are more diverse an" maybe that will solve some of the problem in the area. >> i would bet you most of the people going into the stores looting don't care one whit about this kid. they went down there to take advantage of the situation knowing full well they could get into a liquor store. we've seen it happen before in riot after riot. the majority of these people want to see this kid -- his trial be fair and the rest of it. they don't go into liquor stores and rob. i bet most of you couldn't even pronounce his name. coming up, president obama faces another racially charged story in ferguson but some african-americans are not buying his explanation for the causes of violence. details next. i make a lot of purchases for my business.
2:25 pm
and i get a lot in return with ink plus from chase. like 50,000 bonus points when i spent $5,000 in the first 3 months after i opened my account. and i earn 5 times the rewards on internet, phone services and at office supply stores. with ink plus i can choose how to redeem my points. travel, gift cards, even cash back. and my rewards points won't expire. so you can make owning a business even more rewarding. ink from chase. so you can.
2:26 pm
2:27 pm
2:28 pm
2:29 pm
well, president obama has never shied away from diving into racial issues before and yesterday was no exception. the president took a break from his vacation to address the unrest in ferguson and blamed black violence on our, quote, tragic histories. >> part of the ongoing challenge of perfecting our union has involved dealing with communities that feel left behind, who as a consequence of tragic histories often find themselves isolated, and you have young men of color in many communities who are more likely to end up in jail or in the
2:30 pm
criminal justice system than they are in a good job or in college. >> but the wall street journal's jason riley took issue wlings explanation. >> he said black criminals should be prosecuted, which is helpful. but then he suggested it stemmed from poverty or racial criminal justice system. which is nonsense. the in 1960, was there less raci racism? what it means to be a male or black. he needs to talk about that head-on, not dismiss that as a product of racism or history, which is a dodge. >> the president taking heat for not saying looting was wrong. he basically stated intended the rioting and looting to promote aggression. charles krauthammer made that
2:31 pm
comment last night. what did you think about the president's remarks yesterday? >> i can't get like too out of shape about it. i think his goal is to remain calm. he's the most famous black american in the world and sometimes you would like to think that he would take some risks and say some uncomfortable things but maybe he will and maybe he realizes that's not who he is, but if you look at what is wrong and you see what's happening to ferguson, which is almost like detroit condensed into a made for tv movie it's like a time lapse history with a generation of a city, i think it's not black on black. it's poor on poor. you've got decline in the family structure, high taxes, poor schools, joblessness. you've got people leaving to the suburbs, leaving the poor to prey upon the poor. who runs these places into the ground? it's not evil white cops. it's liberalism. it's liberalism that has destroyed every single one of
2:32 pm
these cities. >> one thing i thought that was pretty radical yesterday. when he talked about suspension of black youths in schools, this is a policy he talked about before. he's going to put pressure on schools not to suspend any black kids. so the answer to that is is this administration now going to pressure schools to stop suspending blacks and suspend more whites? i'm just wondering where he was going with that yesterday. >> i actually think it was part of a bigger picture because he mentioned his program my brothers keeper which was well received by everybody to say yes this is something we need to do and he is in the best pog to be able to do it. i think tomorrow when he sends eric holder to ferguson, it does raise expectations and also raises questions, because this is going to happen again somewhere in america and at that point has the precedent been set? hopefully they can calm things down. i think maybe the most helpful
2:33 pm
thing that obama and holder could say is to the people -- the outsiders that have come in that has stoeked further violence, they should have a very tough message for them and tell them to get the heck out of there. >> do you think that the police officer has a chance for a fair shake with holder going to the town? a lot of people wondering that. out of the gate he said civil rights investigation without knowing the facts. he went right to civil rights. he met with the victims family before he knew any of the facts. do you think he will have a fair shake? >> on the other side, i've been hearing about the county prosecutor, his father was a cop who was killed by an african-american, so the other side is saying they won't -- he will have more than his due -- fair shake or however we put it. hopefully justice is fair and it will taken care of it. let me throwthing. president obama has become the most influential civil rights activist. if he wants that job and he seems to want it with the kind
2:34 pm
of rhetoric he's been saying. how about he go himself? how about he -- let me just finish this one thought. let him go himself. let him stand there for five minutes, we're going to stake care of this situation. we understand there's a racial situation. let's calm down. i promise you i won't be that right winger that says why does he only show up to the things that are important to him because that would probably calm things down overnight. >> i think calm is a good idea for me. we did not put on what barack obama said yesterday about looters. he was very strong about it. we put that on. i'm not attacking my own show. the president had other things to say. he's spoken three times. three times he's denounced looters. i don't know what more he has to do. this guy, whatever his name is from the wall street journal, the idea that poverty does not
2:35 pm
contribute to crime, you just don't get it. is it more poverty in the 60s? yeah but there were families in the 60s. that's the difference. >> that's the point. >> that's what he said. if you know anything about jason riley. that is his point. and he knows a lot more about growing up a black man in an inner city than we do because he did. >> i wish he had said that. >> maybe -- follow jason riley. he has interesting good things to say about this topic. every day. not just -- >> i think he did say poverty contributes to crime. he said race doesn't contribute to crime. poverty does. >> bob, you got your bobble log. >> up next, there was another fatal shooting involving another police officer just miles from ferguson. details on that next.

2:40 pm
we're going to head back out to missouri where earlier this afternoon police shot and killed, i believe what is said to be a 23-year-old man wielding a knife trying to rob a convenience store. mike, do you have the very latest? tell us what the response is from where you stand. >> reporter: well, it's interesting. because i'm out here and you get the reaction from the people and the reaction from the people really involves a lot of misinformation. it gets out on social media. it gets out through word of mouth, and the conclusion that was arrived at right away well, was the pleats police got another one. it got twisted along the lines this guy was paying for his food and the police shot him. the police have a lot of
2:41 pm
nonlethal options. it sounds in reality this guy had some mental problems and sadly he's dead now. >> mike, the reactions of those people you are talking about, i mean, it is -- the conclusions that they jump to right away, social media doesn't help on that, but there doesn't seem to be a predetermined view on their part to accept that that would be the case? instead of trying to put myself in their situation. if i heard a cop killed a guy in st. louis and i was living there and i was upset already about what happens happening, my conclusion would be there that they got another one. >> that's immediately the conclusion they arrived at. what i didn't see though is a big flash of anger. you get a lot of talk. the crowd is pretty small right now. as the evening comes around, the crowd will grow, and as the sun goes down, the crowd gets aggressive and angry. we haven't seen the immediate flash of anger and you do have a
2:42 pm
big differentiation in this case because with mike brown the narrative was that he was unarmed. in this case you know now he had a knife and at least according to the information we got from police, he was lunging at the officer. >> mike, i know we don't have a lot of details on this specific incident that took place and i'm not trying to jump to conclusions on either story, but it does seem a little odd that we have two men who are now dead, shot dead in the streets of missouri, because i guess the police suspected them of a crime, something transpired. i did a little research into the law. cops in missouri are allowed to use deadly force if they suspect that the person in front of them is even a suspect in a crime or if it's going to affect the arrest. that's a pretty liberal reading of the law that these cops are just killing people when this person could just be a suspect. i mean, one had a knife. one was unarmed but this seem laws seems pretty unbelievable
2:43 pm
that cops are allowed to do this. >> i think the interpretation of law is one thing but i think there's an exception with your notion that this is unusual. this kind of thing happens across the nation all the time. the only reason we're paying attention to this particular case in st. louis that happened today is because it happened with such close proximity and so close in time to what happened to mike brown. >> hi, mike. it's dana. i'm just curious if anybody that you talk to, do they have expectations for tomorrow's meeting when attorney general eric holder comes to ferguson or is that not really something they are concerned with? >> they don't really talk about it that much, and i think i've watched captain johnson go around and tell the demonstrators, look, you had an impact. you have 40 fbi agents combing this neighborhood right now trying to bring you the justice that you say you are after but they just don't accept it. the people out here hear what they want, they want an arrest and they want a conviction right away. they don't want to go through the long process and they don't
2:44 pm
really want to take the time to understand the process particularly as it relates to a grand jury. >> mike, this is greg. i'm struggling to come up with a question but i can't come up with him. from my statistics, black offenders outnumber whites in homicides by almost 25% in 2012 despite having a population the fifth the size, and i'm wondering what that would be like if we covered every one of those? just a question. >> you got me there. >> it wasn't really meant for you. >> i got a question for you about tonight. i assume that these outsiders who come in there that do this -- the lion's share of this tragedy will use st. louis. st. louis is going to become a rallying point tonight, don't you think? >> well, st. louis or ferguson here. the one stat i can give you there were 78 arrests last night, most of them for defying the order to disperse.
2:45 pm
of those 78 arrests. four people were from ferguson. 13 were from out of state. that answers your question. >> they are the things that will use this st. louis thing as part of their anger supposedly tonight. you must have a hard time hearing. i have a hard time -- is that all day long you have to put up with those horizon -- horns? >> it's constant. there's always a horn going on. >> mike, we're going to let you go. one observation, last night, i think you were doing about the same live shot and i think you were saying the same thing and last night happened to be the most violent and most arrests of all of them so far. mike, we're going to leave you right there. thank you very much. football is back and so is the red skin name controversy. more on that when we return. so what we're looking for is a way to "plus" our accounting firm's mobile plan. and "minus" our expenses.

2:50 pm
phil sims, and washington. eric, what do you think? >> simms, great quarterback, dungy great coach, two guys wussing out on this. i think it's the washington redskins until either the team changes their name or the league instructs differently. the good news, mike ditka and al michaels will continue to use the washington redskins until the name is officially changed. i'm with them. >> dana, this seems to be a growing problem for the redskins from a communications standpoint. do you agree with that? >> i was wondering earlier today. how do they get this behind them? what actually could happen that they can move forward, move past it? i think it's reaching a point where snider will have to make a decision and i think you'll see a change, maybe not this year or within the next three years they
2:51 pm
will probably change it. the other thing they could do is just bleep every time someone says redskins, and then it would be so annoying that they will make sure they have to change it. >> do you think he'll give up the name it is. >> he might if it continues to get -- if they continue to get political pressure. that is smart waive handling it. if the announcers don't want to use the word, don't use the word. that's a perfect way of dealing with it, but i don't think you should be forced to change the name. >> okay. >> that's a banned phrase. jt out? >> calling them washington is way more offensive. >> i knew you were going to say that. >> the proportion of outrage of this is absolutely nuts. redskins, silly bad name, but the suicide rate of young native americans is three times that of general population, and that's not due to the name of a football team. so this -- it's a collection of pathologies that have nothing to do with football, and it makes this whole issue seem idiotic and silly. >> okay. let me being a washingtonian defending this for many many years.
