O’Reilly slams Trump’s call to allow police to get ‘tougher’ with suspects: ‘You can’t beat ’em up!’

http://www.rawstory.com/2016/08/oreilly-slams-trumps-call-to-allow-police-to-get-tougher-with-suspects-you-cant-beat-em-up/

Appearing on Fox’s O’Reilly Factor, GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump didn’t get the deferential treatment he has come to expect when he makes his almost nightly visit to Sean Hannity’s show, as host Bill O’Reilly tried to rein him Monday night when he started talking about policing policies.

Discussing crime rates in Chicago — a favorite of target for conservatives – Trump went on to say that he thinks cops are handling suspects with kid gloves and that they need to be able to clamp down on suspects....

According to Trump, one of his unnamed “top” Chicago cops told him, “Mr. Trump, I’d be able to stop it in one week,” with Trump saying the cops want to use undefined “tough police tactics.”

O’Reilly jumped in by telling Trump, “You need a warrant to arrest people. You can’t beat them up ! You have to have a warrant to arrest them! You have to –” only to be cut off by Trump who wasn’t interested in going into details.
