Reagan 7th Appellate District Judge Reichard Posner died this week.

The Chicago Tribune decided praise was in order.

The reason cited can be seen in the headline below:

Tribune editorial headline: “Those who beneifited from gay marriage have reason to appreciate Richard Posner.”

There are some of us who think he should be remembered for forcing the State of Illinois to follow the SecondAmendment and allow citizens to carry guns in public.

December 11, 2012, Chicago Tribune article headline about Judge Richard Posner’s opinion on concealed carry in Illinois: “Appeals court strikes down Illinois ban on handguns in publilc.”

No doubt that the Second Amendment decisions affected more people than the gay marriage one.

the Tribune’s obituary on Posner, who had does not even mention the Concealed Carry decision.

Does anyone sense an ideological bent at the Tribune?
