Bill O’Reilly’s spirit epitomizes what sets America apart from the rest of the world. Rugged individualism tempered with a deep sense of right and wrong; fused with a tenacity that does not allow adversity to stand in the way of accomplishment.

Born into a lower middle class Irish American family, O’Reilly worked his way to the top of the cutthroat journalistic world, anchoring Fox News network’s most successful opinion news show. He was hated by the corrupt progressive media and constantly targeted for professional and personal destruction. When the Me-Too movement rolled over America, Fox News succumbed to the awakening of “wokism” and unceremoniously sacked their flagship correspondent. The rest of the Media pounced, and O’Reilly was left for dead. A funny thing happened on the way to O’Reilly’s funeral. Turns out, the folks O’Reilly helped for 2 decades were just waiting to return the favor. O’Reilly’s supporters found him and breathed new life into his body. O’Reilly started his own news podcast {on BillOreilly.com} charged $35 a year {some of the best money this author has ever spent} and is no longer constrained by the woke establishment. O’Reilly has created a product that cuts to the heart of the issues of the day. Once again, he reaches millions and is a force for good. O’Reilly has recently come up with the concept, The Rise of the American Sociopath. It is a genius deduction this piece will build on.

Sociopath: A person with a personality disorder manifesting itself in extreme antisocial attitudes/behavior and lack of a conscience.

Nov. 20, 2021 – Place: San Francisco, 9 p.m.

He looks across the street at the open Louis Vuitton Store. The store he and 80 of his sociopathic friends were ready to ransack and pillage. If anyone in the store got hurt, too bad. He just wanted their stuff, and he was going to take it. This was San Francisco and the new DA believed people like him shouldn’t be punished because after all, they were just a product of racism and discrimination. He gave the signal and the night of rampage started. Over the next several hours multiple stores were ransacked. Hundreds of looters were involved.

The police survey the ongoing anarchy. Demoralized by the woke democratic progressive elected officials, they know whatever goes down, no one has their back. The media will rush to judgement and crucify them in the court of public opinion. The mayor and DA will be leading the charge. It’s not worth the risk. Let the city burn and pick up the pieces in the morning. Despite numerous 911 calls that night no one was taken into custody. In the after math of the carnage only a few were arrested and charged.

All across America the same lawless acts and lack of accountability play out.

The root cause lies in generations of inner-city minorities growing up in fatherless homes and being told they had no chance because America was racist. Many never finished high school and found their home in the street gangs. Left in ignorance with no skills, they were unemployable. They did whatever was needed to survive and any sense of common decency or regard for other’s feelings was lost along the way. They became sociopaths and ripe for manipulation.

San Francisco District Attorney, Chesa Boudin

The son of two incarcerated American Terrorists he was raised by members of the same murderous anti-American group. Despite being educated at Yale and Oxford his hatred and loathing of America and what it did to his parents, torments him still. Boudin leveraged the massive financial backing of like-minded America haters and was elected San Francisco’s District Attorney. The first thing he did was fire veteran prosecutors and lay down the new law. Criminals needed to be treated as if they were not responsible for their behavior. It was the system that failed them. In San Francisco stealing less than a thousand dollars is no longer deemed a crime, smash and grab is the status quo, drug addicted homeless people’s needles litter the ground, naked people wonder aimlessly, and human feces is on the streets. A perfect breeding ground for sociopath behavior and the anarchy that follows. The police know their place and will not intervene. Chesa Boudin is thrilled. Night is coming for the America he hates, and he’s going to play his part in its destruction.

The violence has to be stopped

Cities with enough law-abiding citizens can vote for law-and-order representatives. These cities can be brought back from the abyss, the same way NYC was reborn after electing Mayor Giuliani. During the dark days before Giuliani, America was screaming for salvation from that era’s sociopaths. Popular movie figures like Charles Bronson were idolized for their vigilante behavior, wasting sociopaths that law enforcement ignored. Perhaps the most iconic figure of the time was Clint Eastwood’s “Dirty Harry”. A cop who did what had to be done.

Mayor Giuliani also did what needed to be done in New York City. He supported the police and demanded the DA put the sociopaths behind bars. The city cleaned up and became safe again. A generation later NYC has returned to the decay and lawlessness of the 1970s.

Recently, in a very close contest, NYC elected a minority progressive pro law and order, former Police officer, mayor. Even before taking the oath of office the mayor elect has been threatened by the NYC leader of BLM; if he does his job and reigns in the sociopaths that are wreaking havoc on NYC, there will be blood in the streets. We will see if the new mayor is up to the job.

What Happens if the Sociopath Contagion has gone too far?

Cities that don’t vote in law-and-order officials will continue to spiral down into a state of anarchy and lawless mayhem. At some point the State or the Federal Government will have to take over the cities to restore law and order. The tyranny of the woke progressive leaders cannot be allowed to deprive people of their constitutionally guaranteed rights. The most paramount of which is, the expectation of a safe living environment.

Can Existing Sociopaths Be Helped?

Treatment for the hundreds of thousands of American sociopaths will be very difficult. For treatment to have any hope of success the afflicted individuals must accept they are the problem. Not likely to happen. If society demands an environment of gang free safety, and only gives government support if you can’t work; the sociopath won’t have many options. They’ll either get a job or end up in prison.

What can the average American do to keep the Sociopath Contagion from Infecting Their Communities?

The first thing is to understand the Washington D.C., democratic woke elected officials fundamentally disagree with what made Bill O’Reilly successful, rugged individualism. This trait allows for personal and national growth; but at the same time implies a responsibility to help those that can’t help themselves. Those down on their luck we pick off the floor and give them the opportunity to help themselves and in doing so, unite the country.

Progressive woke Washington, D.C., democrats believe if you throw enough money at the inner-city everything will somehow get better. It hasn’t worked since LBJ’s great society and trillions of dollars have been flushed down the toilet. The end result is the moral and spiritual decay of our cities, breeding grounds ripe to create sociopaths.

If a person lives in a district or State represented by a progressive woke democrat, it’s time to mobilize and get the progressive out of office. These legislators have knowingly contributed to the woke progressive policies that are directly responsible for the present generation of sociopaths. If these so-called democrats stay in power, they will vote our nation further towards bankruptcy and weakness, with the inevitable loss of America’s constitutionally guaranteed freedoms.

Just as Bill O’Reilly, with the help of his friends, rose from the ashes so shall our nation return to greatness. Together with our friends and neighbors we must stand up for the America we know and love. Never let the corrupt media and woke anti-American forces lead you or your family to believe America is not the greatest nation this world has ever seen.

It is time for America to channel its inner” Dirty Harry”. Not with magnum force, but with something much more powerful.

Paraphrasing Dirty Harry’s words, it’s time to go ahead and:

“Make America’s Day”
