Dorner morphing into an anti-hero?
Hotair ^

Posted on 02/10/2013 10:33:12 PM PST by chessplayer

I have, at times, been accused of being somewhat naive when it comes to modern culture, both by family members and readers alike. Perhaps you’re all on to something there, because I certainly never saw this coming. As the search continues for alleged cop killer Christopher Dorner, there is an emerging theme – at least on the West Coast – that perhaps Dorner is some sort of Robin Hood, standing up for the little guy and taking it to the corrupt LA police force.

"Support Growing For Former L.A. Officer Accused Of Killing Spree

Dorner lost his job with the Los Angeles Police Department in 2008. His manifesto vows revenge for that; and, surprisingly, thousands of people actually support him.

It’s hard to believe but there are those out there who sympathize with the man targeting police officers.

One Facebook page is proclaiming Dorner for president. “We propose electing a man who could no longer sit idly by and watch as malicious tyrants abuse the innocent.”

The description on “We Are All Chris Dorner” chillingly says, “Yes, this is war.”

These are the same idiots after all who will post evidence of crimes on social sites.

So far, Dorner is accused of killing a white male, a black male, and a female who appears to be a mix of asian/black. I guess it really doesn’t matter which ethnic group he is accused of murdering, it’s justified as long as he is aggrieved about some sort of wrong he thinks was done to him.

No. I don't think you have really considered what armed resistance to well-armed and equipped tyranny might entail.

It isn't a question of being "psycho", it is a question of being able to look a little farther down that road and see what could be, as ugly as that is--and all the more incentive to do everything in our power to stop things before people have hard choices to make.

Not killing children. That’s beyond a level of sick.

That's the bar that has already been set low by police. And why is it worse to kill an innocent child than kill an innocent adult?

Dorner was honorably discharged from the Navy Reserve on February 1, 2013.

So where did you acquire the notion he was dishonorable discharged?

Doesn’t take a but a few seconds to verify the honorable discharge via a search engine, so what’s your real agenda?

You’re entitled to your own opinion but not to your own “facts”.

When the government goes after your gun the only way to fight back is to support a candidate, vote, and go to court. Any more violent route makes you a liberal...”

Wow. I guess the 2nd amendment is just about hunting and shooting tin cans and such.

Killing an innocent anything is abhorent. Just because one does it, does not make it right.

Because many on the the political right ‘feel’ instead of think just like the left.

In reality, there is no difference People just want to look morally superior ‘for the children.’
