In reply to the discussion: Here's video of police shouting "burn that motherfucker" and "burn him out" as Dorner was trapped. [View all]countryjake
(8,554 posts)of a vast mountainous region, after a wild, tragic and frightening afternoon in which one of their own was shot and killed, another wounded; not to mention that two game wardens were fired on after they made a traffic stop up at the ski resort; two maids were surprised and tied up in a cabin they'd come to clean and their vehicle was stolen; another man was carjacked and his truck also taken...and it was getting dark.
I live in a fairly large county, also mountainous, and I haven't any doubt that my own Co. Sheriffs would sound and behave in much the same way as what you can hear in that video...mayhem had ensued in San Bernardino County throughout the day, they had their man cornered, a cold night was coming on, so they wrapped it up.
I am not surprised that this is what happened, because I expected something of the sort to finally end the entire affair, but yes, I am disgusted by it, tho not any more disgusted than I am by the havoc that the ex-cop himself wreaked upon the area.
