IMMIGRANT OF THE WEEK: HENRY BELLO (OBOTETUKUDO)

July 5, 2017
Last Friday, Nigerian immigrant Henry Williams Obotetukudo, aka Henry Bello, opened fire with an AM-15 rifle at the Bronx-Lebanon Hospital, killing one doctor and injuring a half-dozen others. I would prefer to leap right in and offer my ideas for stopping these immigrant shooting rampages, but first I'll have to tell you the facts the media won't.

The New York Times, still unaware there's an internet, is trying to pass off the Nigerian as a Californian, the non-doctor as a doctor, and Mr. Obotetukudo as "Dr. Bello."

In the Times' major biographical profile of Bello the next day, he was described as a "sharp dresser from California." The only other reference to the shooter's provenance came several paragraphs later: "Dr. Bello lived in California off and on from 1991 until 2006."

ABC News had reported on the day of the shooting that Bello was a "Nigerian national" -- so the cat was already out of the bag, New York Times. Local New York station PIX11 also reported that he was a Nigerian. Even newspapers in Ohio knew that Bello was a Nigerian.

But as we go to print, the Times still has not identified Bello as a Nigerian immigrant. It issued a "correction," but only to clarify the exact street of a homeless shelter where Bello had lived. No correction to the "California" bit.

Sadly, the Times didn't allow any comments to the online version of its story, but CBS did. There were four comments, two about the incident ("rot in hell") and two about CBS's report:

"Where was Bello born?"

and:

"Where is he from? Where did he receive his medical degree? Worthless reporting."

You're not fooling anyone, media.

Having misled readers about Bello's nationality, the Times professed utter bafflement about the shooter's motive, saying it was "marked with as many questions as answers."

You are such a hateful liar and word manipulator.

Attempting to have reasoned debate with you gets invectives, name calling and lie after lie. And childish condescending remarks and quesitons.

You are the only one who is all verklempt about Coulter not following your guidelines for writing a column.

You have no credibility.

Coulter has many best selling books and is well known as an intelligent articulate accurate conservative commentator.

You have no credibility at all in what you are spewing.

You need a better way to communicate.

The hate and viciousness started with you and I never joined in.

Nor did I post any name-calling and clever questions impugning your honesty and character. The former you have none of, and your character is darkly evident

And I was not wrong in any instance where you claimed I was.

Your debate style:

how idiotic

Idiot, it’s not about making me feel better

No, moron

You can’t get anything right can you, public school product

an idiot would do that. You fit the bill perfectly grow a pair

Nothing I said was juvenile

an idiot would do that. You fit the bill perfectly

example of you being a moron

Can you read?

again, can you read

You are so good at badgering and it clearly shows in your attacks and defines your character.

Your biggest lie (on this thread, I seen many more of yours on FR in "various" forums): "I’ve never really made a false statement"

Oh, and This post shows where the hate and flaming started and it was YOU that posted it

Your conversing style is very hostile.

I was very civil in my posts to you, but you choose to be uncivil and condescending in your posts to me.

Yes Coulter knows her audience and how to bring in new readers.

The column is fantastic and very well executed.
