In reply to the discussion: 3rd former officer Brian Bentley comes out on misconduct by LAPD [View all]RC

Everything we do is decide, we decide in our brains. How we perceive the world is processed in our brains. You see the world different than I do. Each of us sees the world slightly differently. We all do not react the same way to the same things.
Some of us can blow something off, while the exact same thing can set someone else off. Why did Dorner do what he did? We can't know now, because they cooked him. All we can do now is speculate.
