Delayed Good News

  • A south suburban quadriplegic who died at a suburban hospital over the weekend succumbed to injuries he suffered in 2017, when he was shot and paralyzed by a concealed carry permit holder in the city’s Calumet Heights neighborhood on the South Side, authorities said.

    Brian Ford, 20, was pronounced dead Saturday at Ingalls Memorial Hospital in Harvey, according to the Cook County medical examiner’s office. An autopsy performed Wednesday showed that Ford died from a gunshot wound to the neck, along with complications of quadriplegia, according to the agency.

    Ford’s injury stemmed from a Dec. 12, 2017, shooting that began with the then-18-year-old pulling his own gun on a 27-year-old man driving his vehicle into a rear yard in the 9100 block of South Harper Avenue, according to Chicago police.
And as the ZeroHedge website points out, the Tribune's bleeding heart liberal anti-gun reporter commits journalistic malpractice once again:
  • The Chicago Tribune has published what can only be described as yellow journalism - calling a dead, gun-toting thug who was shot in the neck by a concealed-carry holder, a "victim" after the armed robber succumbed to his wounds nearly 18 months later.
We've been fighting this battle for years, especially where police shootings are concerned. The attacked party (in this case, the car jacking victim - in other cases, the police officer) is the VICTIM. The person shot is the OFFENDER. But good luck trying to convince the libtarded of this simple fact.

In any event, good riddance to bad rubbish.

Agreed. There should also be different boxes in case reports for justified shootings where the actual offender dies. Yes you have to pull a 0110 but shouldn't have to put offender in victim box and po in offender box.

In all fairness to William Lee it appears he is quoting the police spokesman on this. I’ve read his columns and stories and I do not think he is a police hater by any stretch. He’s not Gorner or Crappo that’s for sure. If he’s not pro police he at least tries to be objective. The reporter also does not choose the headline over his story. Still in this case he should have made clear from the get go that the guy who died was an armed robbery offender. Speaking of the dead guy hopefully he suffered non stop since being shot and turned into a quadriplegic. Good riddance. Off the taxpayers dime paying for his medical bills.

What a very poorly written article with no actual sources. The article is dated May 22, 2019 (a Wednesday). It states that the criminal died on a Saturday (no date given). The autopsy was performed on Wednesday (no date given).

I highly doubt that an autopsy was performed on Wednesday, May 22, 2019 and the results were immediately available for this “reporter” to publish the results the same day.

Just another example of the BS that the Tribune and Sun Times publish every day as “news”.

It's a shame the 'victim' of his own stupidity took so long to die a slow, painful death. Unfortunately, his grim lesson will be lost on the next ambitious thief.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

Media is straight propoganda. They don't bother to hide it. Useful idiots, they will be.

Expose the reporter, it’s the only way to stop this. Boycott tribune and sun times and its advertisers. It’s the only way to send a message. Particularly biased are Chris Fusco and Matt Hendrickson.

Correction:

The “victim” is still alive; the person who died was the perpetrator, who sustained a serious gunshot wound while attempting armed robbery.

The media are so backwards these days that they can’t tell right from wrong, up from down, in from out. The best example of this is how they continue to claim “racism” every time “people of color” run up against the consequences of their actions.
