Why the LAPD's Hunt for Dorner Is Indefensible

[MrScorpio]

41. Again, the LAPD's response to Dorner's rampage and their subsequent handling of his accusations…

Are separate issues.

On one hand, Dorner clearly needed to be taken down. Yet on the other there are viable questions, many of them borne from Dorner's own testimony regarding corruption, racism, abuse and incompetence in the LAPD itself.

I'm merely saying that Dorner was not doing the LAPD any favors when he wrote what he wrote. The LAPD wasn't doing any favors for themselves by going all Rambo in the manhunt for the killer.

Yes, being a violent fugitive did not validate his response to any treatment throughout his problems with his former employers. However, the LAPD has a responsibility to the community that it serves to eliminate the very corruption, racism, abuse and incompetence that coincides with the things that Dorner mentioned in his testimony.

If they seek to invalidate those accusations, no matter what the source is, by hiding behind Dorner the killer, then it's quite clear that they have no interest in addressing their own problems as well.

It's a pure guilt by association tactic to undermine any argument against them.
