Guest:Bill O'Reilly
Greg began Monday's show with Saturday's murders in New York City, where two police officers were executed by 28-year-old Ismaaiyl Brinsley. Bill, who is on vacation, phoned in to express his deep anger: "I'm going to walk through this in a very methodical way," he began. "My grandfather was NYPD and I know that the police department is probably the best local police agency in the world. What they've done to decrease crime is amazing. The new mayor comes in, Bill de Blasio, who is a far-left individual and who is incompetent. But let's start with the killer - a total loser, 20 arrests, high school dropout, the usual cultural devastation. The system won't deal with him because people like de Blasio don't hold him accountable for anything. Then the man snaps, shoots his girlfriend in the stomach, and gets on a bus to New York City. He decided to go out in the most destructive way possible, using the deaths of Michael Brown and Eric Garner as an excuse. Brinsley is the only one responsible for the deaths of the two police officers, no one else has blood on their hands. But aiding and abetting Brinsley were those protesters who yelled, we want 'dead cops.' Those people should be shunned! Now let's go to the true villain in the case, even though he doesn't have anything to do with the actual murder. Bill de Blasio is an anti-police individual, and he has been anti-police his whole career. And who's his best friend? Al Sharpton, a racial provocateur. That says it all. De Blasio is actually proud that he told his teenage son that he may face 'dangers' when interacting with the NYPD. Then, after witnessing two of his police lieutenants beaten by a mob, the mayor said it was an 'alleged beating.' That insulted every single one of the 35,000 NYPD officers. Once he said that, he lost the police department. When he went to the hospital over the weekend where the officers were being treated, police officers turned their back on Bill de Blasio. Good for them! This is an individual who should resign today. He can not run the city, he has lost control of the police department, and they will never come back because he sided with the protesters and he associated with provocateurs. He has disgraced the office of mayor. He should resign!"

Guests:Juan Williams & Mary Katharine Ham
Greg asked FNC's Juan Williams and Mary Katharine Ham whether police officers were right to literally turn their backs on Mayor de Blasio. "I don't think it was appropriate," Williams said, "and I think it's the wrong message to send. They can express their discontent, but turning their backs politicizes this unnecessarily. There is still a need for police reform in this country." Ham contended that police anger has been building in New York for many months. "A backlash against Bill de Blasio and Al Sharpton is built not just on this incident, it is built on their careers of sowing mistrust with the police force. This was a spark." Greg expressed solidarity with the cops, saying, "I can't blame them when you have a mayor who has not been supportive."

Guests:Alan Colmes & Harry Houck
Greg continued the discussion with former NYPD detective Harry Houck and FNC analyst Alan Colmes. Houck defended his earlier accusation that Al Sharpton has "blood on his hands" in this double murder. "He's the catalyst for this whole thing," Houck declared. "He started a little fire in Ferguson and threw gasoline on it. He injects lies into his arguments and makes comments about the police, and people out there take it very seriously." Colmes disputed the notion that Al Sharpton and Bill de Blasio are in any way responsible. "It's absolutely despicable that cops were killed, and it's terrible and false to suggest that those of us on the left don't love cops. And it's wrong to say that rhetoric caused it or that someone has 'blood on their hands.' Should I say that right wing talk show hosts have caused all the threats against Barack Obama? You can't blame everything on rhetoric. It's about mental illness and guns!"

Guest:Bern Carson
Neurosurgeon and prospective Republican presidential contender Ben Carson entered the No Spin Zone with his take on America's racial tension. "The blame game always exacerbates the situation," he began, "and I believe it would be wise to start talking about the good things the police do. We could find bad things about anybody, and if we just emphasize those bad things it's called 'demonization.' You can stir up a lot of bitter feelings about any individual or group, and we certainly shouldn't be doing that with the police. How would any of our lives be if the police weren't there? It would just be chaos!" Greg added that law enforcement has been remarkably successful for the past few decades: "We've see a dramatic drop in crime and thousands of minority lives have been saved."

Guest:Dana Perino
What should President Obama do or say about the police murders and racial matters in general? Greg posed that question to his "The Five" co-host and former Bush spokesperson Dana Perino. "He has not hesitated in the past," she said, "to talk about Henry Gates or Trayvon Martin or Michael Brown or Eric Garner. This time he was out on the golf course when he heard about this. He left the golf course to call the New York police commissioner, then went back to the golf course and issued a statement on paper. If he thinks this is a local issue and not a trend, you could say he did the right thing. But most of America is looking at this dramatic event and drawing a link to the past couple of months. The president is reeling from the reputational damage to the White House for having Al Sharpton as the number one guest at every opportunity. I think the company that the president keeps is a major problem."

Guests:Richard Grenell & Richard Goodstein
North Korea is denying any involvement in the hacking of Sony Pictures' emails, which President Obama described as "vandalism." Greg dissected the international incident with former diplomat Richard Grenell and Democratic strategist Richard Goodstein. "President Obama always underestimates our problems," Grenell said. "Describing this as 'vandalism' is ridiculous. I think this action from the North Koreans is an act of terrorism and therefore warfare! Our banking system and our power grid are vulnerable, we need to take this as a warning sign. What's coming next is much more serious." Goodstein agreed that the hacking is a serious matter. "It's not 9/11 or Pearl Harbor, there was not massive loss of life, but there are real risks to the public. The good thing about this is that this could be one of those rare things on which Democrats and Republicans see eye-to-eye." Greg couldn't resist a segment-ending quip, saying, "Frankly, I was heartbroken that Dennis Rodman was unable to solve this problem."

Greg ended Monday's program with an exposition about the slaying of two cops in Brooklyn: "After acts of terror, we are told over and over to mind the 'backlash.' Now we're told to guard against the 'backlash' directed at protesters. This is a concern never raised to protect cops, even after months of being smeared as racist killers. So I say, politely, shove your future backlash into your most amenable orifice. This is about two dead officers. It's not time to worry about Al Sharpton, but to march for those two men. And march for them loudly! Yes, the killer is responsible, but denying the impact of the rhetoric of violence is deceitful. The fact is that a ghoulish climate, borne from radicalism and division, makes violence more acceptable. There is only one color that is acceptable to hate these days - blue. Maybe the president can spark a 'national dialogue' on that."
