He was found bloodied and bruised about 9:15 a.m. Monday in a stone path used as a short cut from Laurel Street to Capitol, his son said. His wallet had been stolen...
"They left him for dead"...
Correspondent 1894C fills in some details the "Authorized Journalists" won't bring you:
Sadly I bring you this story of a well intentioned liberal that spent decades creating a culture of government entitlement and dependency, and was beaten half to death by products of the society he helped create.And lest you think this assessment of Hartford's sociological development a mite harsh, consider this assessment from someone in the know:
Note that this man could never have defended himself against multiple attackers all younger and stronger than he. He could not run away. He could not simply "give them what they want" he did not fight at all. He could not avoid a bad area, or dangerous time of day, he was walking the street in broad daylight on Sunday morning. In short there was only one thing Mr. Carbone could have had in his possession that may have been useful to him to prevent grievous personal injury, a firearm, along with the skill and will to use it to protect his life.
Then consider this from the article: "Carmen Rodriguez, a community activist who serves on Hartford's firearms review board with Carbone, said the city must ask itself some serious questions if an older man can't walk to breakfast without being attacked."
Yes, let's ask those questions; namely how can an elderly man protect himself from multiple assailants that intend to do him terrible harm?
Mr. Carbone promulgated a welfare society that created these predators, he served on Hartford's firearms review board that infringes on peaceable citizens inalienable right to self defense. His assault is a terrible, tragic, and all too predictable consequence of decades of policy not just an aberrant act of random violence.
In an unusual display of public anger, Hartford's police chief Wednesday gave vent to his feelings about the recent violence afflicting his city and the lack of decency among residents.Chief Roberts does something cool that I've not seen before--he blogs. And furthermore, he provides for comments. I'd say that's as good a place as any to engage him on his views on concealed carry.

It's clear to me that Hartford needs more gun control, then stuff like this wouldn't happen.
I read some of his blog,,,, he doesn't get it. Most of his gun entries are self congratulations for his dept's siezures and calling for more.
I left a comment in the section Aptly titled "What Can the Community Do to Help Police?".
Now, we'll see if he allows it to be posted. It seems that anyone on the Left side of this issue won't allow comments or will only allow moderated comments.
No sympathy for Mr.Carbone. No regret or compassion for his injuries. Sorry, not put together that way.
Since those people were going to attack some helpless individual I thing it gratifying and altogether appropriate that Mr.Carbone, who helped create the victim pool, was the one attacked. At least one other person, who didn't help create the problem, was spared by Mr. Carbone standing in and reaping the fruits of his own labor.
What could be more fair than that? Sounds like poetic justice to me.
Though I wouldn't have wished it on him, I have no sympathy that he wished it on himself.
