Bill OReilly flashed anger at Rep. Jim Clyburn for focusing on gun control over terrorism in the wake of the Orlando massacre, saying on Thursday that he wanted to slap the South Carolina Democrat for his comments.
Speaking on Fox & Friends, OReilly got heated when discussing terrorism and the background of American-born shooter Omar Mateen, who killed 49 people at an LGBT nightclub before being killed in a shootout with police.
It just angers me. Theres two separate issues: Theres the terrorism, and theres the gun control. But what was it, Congressman Clyburn, is that his name? OReilly said.
Then OReilly launched into an impression of Clyburns voice and speech patterns: Its not about terrorism; its about gun control, referring to comments Clyburn made on MSNBC on Tuesday, a day after he followed a moment of silence for the Orlando victims by asking House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) when gun-control legislation would be considered.
You know, and I just want to slap him, O'Reilly said, adding, with all due respect.
