For Gunman at Bronx Hospital, Fleeting Success and Persistent Strife
NYT's ^ | 7/1/17 | LISA W. FODERARO

With a limited permit from New York State to practice medicine as an international medical graduate, Dr. Bello was essentially an extra pair of hands for the department of family medicine at the 17-story hospital, one of the biggest and busiest in New York City. Dr. Sridhar Chilimuri, the hospital’s physician in chief, said Dr. Bello could treat patients and prescribe medication, as long as other doctors were looking over his shoulder, and only at Bronx-Lebanon. “Not over there — not in a clinic,” he said for emphasis, pointing out the hospital’s doors.

But Dr. Bello’s slow journey to the medical profession, which was punctuated by bankruptcy, at least two arrests and recent sojourns in homeless shelters, came to a shattering end on Friday, when he opened fire with an assault rifle on the 16th and 17th floors of the hospital. After killing one doctor and wounding six other people, he fatally shot himself in the head.

A Nigerian murders a Chinese doctor at a hospital founded by Eastern European Jews that now serves primarily migrants from Central America at a location not far from historic battles of the American revolution. Things have changed a bit.

They don’t tell us much about his background - but it is implied he was not born in the US. Criminal record of sex abuse and illegal imprisonment - he should have been ejected from the US based on that alone, if he was not born here. We simply have no need for third world scum in this country. They debase society, create real victims, cost taxpayers money - send them home.

The entire multiculturalism is just a race to the bottom.

“Where did this lowlife get his hands on a Select Fire Assault Rifle?”

I have discovered a few things as a landlord catering to the lower edges of society. It’s like the seven degrees of Kevin Bacon. The woman has a job and pays the rent. Her husband, ex-husband or boyfriend is in and out of jail. He is also in and out of the woman’s house. He knows somebody who deals drugs. That person knows somebody who deals weapons. That person knows somebody who shoots porn. All of those people have introductions to the world of theft and post-ownership marketing. Each guy is an introduction to an entire world the rest of us never see. Thus, the husband or boyfriend has access to almost anything; guns, explosives, timers, drugs...you name it, it can be had.

... he fatally shot himself in the head.

Too bad he didn't start there. But, Bolshies would have said the gun made him do it.

Yet another demonstration as to how "Our Diversity Is Our Strength."

By they way this is the type of doctor the middle class shall have, the "poor" and very rich shall share the real doctors. Have Fun!

I did not mean the left will succeed in removing Trump with the 25th argument. I meant they will find a way to remove him. The left is moving against Trump on a broad front; i.e. calls to assassinate, impeach, declare crazy, stopping his “agenda” etc. etc.

WHY would a hospital even have someone w/ those kinds of crimes on staff? Sounds like a nurse practitioner had more power.

Saw a photo of that EVIL A-s-s-ault rifle. No pistol grip, in fact no grip at all. Short magazine. NO sights at all.
I have read that it was totally NY legal.

WTF is that? Is that some kind of "New York compliant" abomination?
