Dorner's con game worked

[BainsBane]

194. No, not at all

I hate murder. I hate guns, I hate the death penalty, and I oppose murder of all kinds.
That's really it. I don't like seeing anyone sympathize with someone who goes around murdering people. I don't particularly like police, but I don't hate them either. I don't assume they are liars or corrupt without evidence. I happen to live in a city (Minneapolis) with a really shitty police force, whereas the one in the neighboring city (St. Paul) is entirely different, not without corruption and screw ups, but not as bad as Minneapolis' force. Certainly there is plenty of evidence of corruption in the LAPD, but I don't see that as a "cause," proximate or otherwise, of Dorner's murder spree. As you note, it was five years ago. He began killing last week, shortly after being denied promotion by the navy and losing his commission. I think he deliberately played the public with his manifesto. Did he have legitimate grievances with the LAPD, probably. That's a reason for a law suit, not a murder spree.
