Incredibly, some three months after being shot in the head, baby Isaac Early appears to be making a full recovery. News being spread around in the community by Facebook says Baby Isaac's sister, Denijah, is in the hospital awaiting a heart transplant and was already hospitalized when Isaac caught a bullet.
Meanwhile, on December 7 the baby's father Isaac Early posted the image, above, on his Facebook profile under the name "Lorenzo Vicious Early." He wrote "I'm in this shit for real" as a comment on this tattoo, but elsewhere twice made reference to the "Bang Bang 20 Gang."
Isaac Early remains on supervised release from the Minnesota prison system. I guess "supervised" isn't the same thing as "sternly ordered by MN DOC Supervising Agent Kevin McCann not to post gang crap on Facebook but to straighten up and fly right for the sake of his little son."
If this is what "supervised" means to the Minnesota DOC, it's no wonder Northside babies get shot in the head by accident, sometimes.
I am happy to hear that baby Isaac is recovering. My heartfelt wishes for Denijah are in full bloom also. I hope that the Early's turn their shit around; fat chance of that.
ReplyDeleteThe only way to peace is through talks and discussions. Fat chance also, I guess. I still hope all of you shitheads understand that we are all equal.
We're equal before the law. We're in no way the same, though. People like these Earlys simply make every possible mistake that could ever be made from flunking out of school to impregnating women they're not married to to failing to work an honest job to covering themselves with tattoos to joining criminal gangs to breaking every law under the sun to posting about it on Facebook. They have choices, and every single choice they make is a bad one. Equal my ass.
ReplyDeleteHow Sad!
ReplyDeleteThis is the family they're collecting money for on North Vent? #thughuggers
ReplyDeleteNot EVERYBODY on North Vent is collecting the money or contributing it. For the record, I have no objection to money being collected for toys, for example. But if any money is given to that family directly, not a doubt in my mind it will be used badly for blunt, booze or bullets.
ReplyDeleteIs the Top Comments fidget busted?
ReplyDeleteOh, let me clarify something for you, anonymous dolt. Buying a bed for a baby to sleep in after a heart transplant and Christmas gifts for a baby injured by gunfire, does NOT make us thughuggers. It makes us exemplify what Christmas is about. Perhaps read a book instead of this blog, perhaps a Bible.
ReplyDeleteThe widget...
ReplyDeleteYeah, it's being stupid. Not sure if this will clear up soon or will last for months.
Someone else needs to buy that bed for the child because after paying for all that tattoo work, there is no money left? Might be better to loan the bed and pawnable items so the needy family doesn't accidentally have too much reportable income.
ReplyDeleteThe money is to buy for the kids not to give to the parents ! That what Christmas is all about !
ReplyDeleteTHAT particular tattoo appears to be homemade prison work. But I'm sure if money is in their hands, some items that rise to the top of the shopping list would include tattoos.
ReplyDeleteI mean, just look at the mother, Petra. Her chest is a jolly roger pirate flag.
But, yeah, the kids need toys. The kids need toys because of the bad choices made by their parents.
I believe the Children do need those precious gifts! But putting the money in the parents hand thats a no no no!
ReplyDeleteI’m sure you wouldn’t give money after all the children have an African American Dad. You’re disgusting for even bringing babies into the story or discuss what others are doing to help children. It is rare to see a group of giving people in this area, in these times. I am happy to donate.
ReplyDeleteFirst off jhonny , just because my kids dad put stupid shit on his Facebook dont mean shit . My kids live with me not him , so whatever stupid ass choice he wanna make thats him , im at hospitals every fucking day with my kids and im going threw this shit . And yes mfs can stop labling my kids as early this and that because my son got his dads last name dont mean shit . And I wanna thank everybody eles for there support and prayers . It means alot . And for the record u asshole the money they do raise go straight to my kids for there Christmas they deserve the best Christmas if u ask me . Why you wanna take it from them idk saying it will go to booze and blunts I dont smoke or drink get lucky if I crack one beer open . So if u gunna talk shit about somebody fine , but leave.my damn kids out of it .. your a stalker you have nothing better to do . And whatever it is u do do yhen do it the proper fucking way. Thank u and u have a nice Christmas Jerk .
ReplyDeleteThese people cannot even afford a bed or toys for their children, so sad. Perhaps they shouldn't have any. This is just an endless circle of poverty and crime that no doubt these children will continue, since the so called adults around them cannot possible show that they are positive, productive contributing members of society. Again so , so sad.
ReplyDeleteY'all have no life... my neice nd nephew is good.. y'all worried bout wat they gone spend it on, tattoos come free... these kids are good.. dnt need for nothing... so wtbs even if these kids dnt get donated gifts... they still have plenty of gifts... they wont b missing out on nothing... they both here nd alive that's my gift from them...
ReplyDeleteMN has already provided way too much assistance for this family. Do either of them have a job? Have either of them ever had a job? Based on their Facebook pages, I highly doubt it. I would bet that the taxpayers are footing the bill for TWO children in intensive care for months. doling out MFIP and SNAP, and in all likelihood providing a Section 8 subsidy to fund their housing. And don’t worry, if they decide that’s not enough, he’ll simply steal the rest, and you can bet he wouldn’t bat an eye at harming anyone who dared stand in his way.
ReplyDeleteLet me clarify something for you, sanctimonious thug-hugger – I am assuming you are the Dana who pinned the thug-loving post on North Vent. What you are doing is dishonest. It appears that you are intentionally withholding information regarding the shooting and the children’s parents’ backgrounds in order to illicit sympathy for this family. Yes, by all means, get the kids some gifts. But the people who donate deserve to know that baby-daddy proudly advertises his gang-banging history & lifestyle and that one day they or someone they love could become his next victim.
ReplyDeletePetra Ross, if this is you commenting...
ReplyDeleteThis forum is an open opportunity for you to comment and plenty of people are reading. So if you have something to say to me or about me or about the neighborhood or your kids or whatever, I hope you would feel free to come here and say it.
I will also add that if your dumbass gang-banging baby daddy hadn't posted his gang tattoo on his Facebook page recently, I wouldn't have anything to say and probably wouldn't have commented on naive but well-meaning folks trying to raise money for Christmas gifts. Your family and its bad habits represent a danger to decent people in the neighborhood, though some of them are so decent they won't even say it or think it. But it's true. Next time somebody in your family is popping off a firearm the bullet is likely to hit somebody who is NOT part of the Early thug bloodline.
To "Dana" who commented...
ReplyDeleteAnd just as you reserve the right to delete one of MY comments, I reserve the right not to PUBLISH one of yours.
Merry Christmas right back at you.
It's not even that these kids don't have the basic necessacities , let alone parents that don't have the ability to provide for them at holdays, they want a poor community in which the family openly terrorizes to get some free shit . These children have no future in this family in which an infant nearly gets his head shot off, what's lacking here is good old common sense. Shit you people have got to get it together , your fucking not only your lives, up your childrens lives up, and all those that encounter you in the community you live in. The truth does hurt but you have got to open your eyes, my god.
ReplyDeleteLike I said plz keep my kids name out your blog and mouth . Your very disrespectful . And for whoever had something to say about jobs yes I do have a job and had two never Ben with out and stop working to take care of MY Kids . And graduated school and enrolled in school for nursing . So everybody and anybody aient tellin or doin nothing mind your buisness and not mines thank you very much yes coming from Petra Now .. end of whole conversation.
ReplyDeleteJohnny if u got something to say to me say it in my face an be a men an stop posting shit about me an mine this is Isaac early the early u talking about
ReplyDeleteTell Mahoney to STFU and I can't wait to see her in person.
ReplyDeleteJohnny Petra has a great loving family ! Very well off ! She made a poor choice in a baby daddy so sad but the baby is her and for her to be a young mother with a job can't work now being the little girl is waiting on a heart and probly no daycare for a loong while I am proud of her ! Way to go Petra and I hope u and your family have a very happy and blessed Christmas commmme on heart !!!! And johnney I have yet to see one positive post on your blog ! So sorry you are this unhappy with your life I feel for YOUR family if any :( you need to get into church and find your self instead of everyone else ! Try it u might like it and have a very merry Christmas no hard feelings xo
ReplyDeleteRacist comment rejected.
ReplyDeleteBut Why? :-)
DeleteIsaac Early, if this is you...
ReplyDeleteI don't think, in the truest sense, I posted any shit about you.
I think I simply REPOSTED the embarrassing stuff YOU posted to the whole world about YOURSELF. I simply shared it with my audience; people who are interested in the gangs ruining our neighborhood and so forth.
Careful what you say, if this is you. I have the email of your probation officer in my address book.
What would be a Christmas miracle would be for you to delete this entire ugly post, void of any real news. Attacking a family in crisis under the guise of showing a what? Tattoo. O.M.G. someone call homeland security. You should be a one of the decent people you so frequently speak of. Many of whom smile in your face but they laugh at you an chalk it up to ''crazy''. Your talent and flair in writing are truly a waste in this type of rhetoric.
ReplyDeleteI don't take blog posts down. Looks like there won't be any Christmas miracle for thug-huggers this season. (Sad face)
ReplyDeleteHOWEVER...
ReplyDeleteIf Isaac Early (Lorenzo Vicious Early on Facebook) removes the photo in question, I'll write a subsequent blog post about this small, positive step he's taking toward trying to be a decent person, a good father, and a productive member of society.

ReplyDeleteThe tattoo wasn't just a rose or a cross or Our Lady of Guadalupe. It was a boast of a gang affiliation. Johnny's post is just fleshing out the story of an infant who got shot in the head. First it was a supposed random shooting. Then it proved to be an accident. It's worth noting that the accident occurred in a gang household.
To the anonymous troll so worried about what Dana and her friends are doing...
ReplyDeleteI have never seen someone so bitter and petty over someone else's generous heart! Anyone who isn't blind and dumb already knows how and what happened to these children. I see absolutely no dishonestly in the request for funds. Who gives a background on the PARENTS to give toys to a CHILD? If that is the case the military in my area gave twenty thousand toys out to children, NO information on the parents and many of them appeared to be wearing gang colors. Shame on them thug lovers I guess. GROW UP!
It's nice to see a community doing something for these kids! I hope the Lord brings the little girl a heart for Christmas. That’s what I see important here.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if any of you have ever had a child that sick? Be thankful that yours do not need to spend it in the hospital. How can anyone be unpleasant about this?
Early has five felony convictions, including aggravated robbery and assault. He is an admitted member of a gang that terrorizes our neighborhood. The fact that Dana rushed to delete this information speaks volumes about her as a person. She is willing to take money from the generous citizens of North Minneapolis, even if it means hiding information that she knows may make a difference to potential donors. THAT is dishonest. So no, it was not just because of a tattoo, a gang tattoo, I might add. This is pertinent information regarding the family. Look at Early’s record. Look at his posts on Facebook, where he brags that he is going to go out on the block banging, that he is going to die banging. Your attempt to equate Early with members of our armed services is disgusting
ReplyDeleteDana tries to present herself as this devout Christian, but in actuality she is a bully and a hypocrite. I watched as she scurried to delete legitimate comments regarding this family and I think she even booted one member from the group for doing so. For what? Because that person spoke the truth. Why not let the generous people of North Vent decide for themselves if this is something they want to be a part of?
ReplyDeleteAND WHAT DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH MISS ROSS OR HER KIDS . I CAN CLEARLY SEE YOU ONLY TALK ABOUT THE DAD SMH JHONNY AT YOU.
ReplyDeleteAll of you hateful and jealous people are really just a bunch of lonely busybodies spouting lies.I know it's hard this time of year when you have NO ONE to love you and it makes you extra cranky but why don't you MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS! If you weren't such evil assholes someone might be out getting you gifts. Especially you John!! xoxoxoxoxox
ReplyDeleteThis is beyond funny the comments are no longer even about the blog article! Its actually ONE angry troll.
ReplyDeleteHow do I know this and know who you are ,less than intelligent person? Only ONE, say it again, ONE person made comments about the family on North Vent and I removed them within SECONDS. That's a dead give away, oh, I don't know, YOU are THAT spiteful person. I acquired those skills from reading Encyclopedia Brown.
You may want to read slower because I also think the other comment was comparing the generous and INFORMED community of North Vent to the Military gathering and giving out toys,not Early. Doh!
I am very pleased that the community came together to support these children and very disappointed that I lost a friend over it.
The generous people of North Vent did decide to give and we are still giving. I think they are a great group of people who do a lot for everyone. Anonymous critic,do you think I want my money back from a heart patient because she's related to someone with a gang tattoo? THESE COMMENTS ARE STUCK ON STUPID. EVERYONE KNOWS THEY WERENT FBI AGENTS CLEANING THEIR GUNS WHEN THE BABY WAS SHOT.WE'RE NOT STUPID YOU CAN ALL SHUT UP.WE DONT NEED RACISTS BITCHES TO INFORM US THAT EARLY WASNT A BOY SCOUT. WE ARE NORTHSIDERS. IF YOU AND JNS ARE TOO BROKE TO CONTRIBUTE JUST SAY SO...
ReplyDeleteTo Anon @ 10:31, birds of a feather...
ReplyDelete"tattoos come free" OH MY GOD! ROFL. Praise the LORD!
ReplyDeleteAnd the self-congratulation that's being posted on there now is truly gag-inducing. I thought Christians were supposed to be humble.

To Anon @ 7:01(Dana Fisher): Paranoid much? And really, Encyclopedia Brown? That's just precious.

ReplyDeleteAnon, If you can read, then read the entire Bible. It's best if you read it in the original language it was written in, as I did. Also if something makes you gag,STOP looking at it, unless of course you're bulimic. If that's the case,see a shrink.

ReplyDeleteI hope you don't mean to accidentally imply they OWN their own HOME.
ReplyDeleteWhen its all Said & Done There is a Little Girl laying in the Hospital Bed Awaiting for A Heart!...and all you People Can Talk about is the Parents?....Wow So Humanity of you People! IGNORANCE AT ITS BEST
ReplyDeleteI agree with you Anon ,this should be about a little girl who spends every day in the hospital. Queue up all the ruthless nuts who DO NOTHING but critic from behind a keyboard. Blah,blah,blah!
ReplyDeleteLMAO!
ReplyDelete"Wow So Humanity of you People! IGNORANCE AT ITS BEST" sic
That is all.
Ignorance is Bliss!...Cthu #Dead
DeleteI'm going to guess they meant humane. Ya think asshat?
ReplyDeleteDana Fisher is an asshat. Most people have left her Nazi ruled North Vent group (renamed racist North Vent by most people) and joined North Vent II, where Dana Fisher isn't allowed to insult people and dictate comments.
ReplyDeleteThere are, as of this writing, exactly SEVEN people in the second North Vent group, and I think of those seven maybe only one or two aren't still members of the original (and in every way superior) North Vent.
ReplyDeleteHardly an exodus.
OK, I approved one of the trash-talking about Dana Fisher comments simply because it revealed the existence of a new, not-terribly-successful second class North Vent page. But I'm not interested in the trash talking Dana comments, even if Dana and myself don't see eye-to-eye on some issues. Keep submitting your comments if you like, but they are just lost in the void and won't be approved.
