Feb 2013

are out of your goddamn mind.

I don't care how many people Dorner shot, the LAPD and every other law enforcement agency is required (not suggested) to follow the rules. "Shoot first and ask questions later (maybe)" is absolutely against the rules. And saying it's okay cause they were going after him is no fucking excuse whatsoever.

You should feel immeasurable shame for even suggesting such a thing.

Dorner has nothing to add to the LAPD conversation. randome Feb 2013 #4

Sometimes it take an act of extreme violence to shine a light on evil, MadHound Feb 2013 #11

Dorner thought everyone but him was to blame for his problems. randome Feb 2013 #14

Everyone? Is that consistent with his memo (aka "manifesto") AnotherMcIntosh Feb 2013 #39

His rants went back to perceived slights against him before LAPD rustydog Feb 2013 #72

We've been working on it for a long time, way before Dorner popped up. cui bono Feb 2013 #65

Now if Dorner had taken time to document all those abuses then he could have done some good. dkf Feb 2013 #5

Of course he did. He ruined any chance at sympathy or credibility morningfog Feb 2013 #16

Dorner being a mass murderer is ALL the story is. Bad cops are 100% IRRELEVANT to the story. graham4anything Feb 2013 #9

Well, at minimum, just the consideration that the LAPD fired upon three innocents, multiple times, MadHound Feb 2013 #12

My thoughts exactly! DrewFlorida Feb 2013 #10

I disagree with geek tragedy Feb 2013 #13

I posted this earlier in another thread: Sheldon Cooper Feb 2013 #15

I am much less likely to pay attention to anyone who holds Dorner up as some kind of hero. So at DevonRex Feb 2013 #19

Thank you Canuckistanian Feb 2013 #21

Bingo. Little Star Feb 2013 #47

Glad you agree Canuckistanian Feb 2013 #59

That's putting a lot of credence in the words of a terrorist. SCVDem Feb 2013 #35

First post on DU to claim Dorner was killed to keep him silent. geek tragedy Feb 2013 #36

Unfortunately it's not just here that few are capable of nuance, gray area thinking or multitasking Fumesucker Feb 2013 #45

These are entirely separate issues. baldguy Feb 2013 #44

No other police department in the country would have refrained from shooting the wrong vehicles? Fumesucker Feb 2013 #46
