If people couldn’t see this coming, then they have no sense of history.

The rule of law requires a respect for the people who have to live by those laws.

Today, we pick and choose the laws we want to enforce, and we’ve criminalized nearly everyone in the USA.

It’s pretty clear by the actions of the LAPD that they definitely see it that way, or how else do you explain the ‘shoot first’ mode they’ve been in since this has all happened.

The Law has become a nightclub, and either your name is on the list and you’re exempt from the following it (your in), or the law is what the state uses to keep you out of the disco.

Dorner did the due process bit with the LAPD, and thought it was one big corrupt enterprise, and the irony is that he still thinks civilians ought to go around weaponless, so that the cops have all the power. He’s still a member of the gang, you see.

Dorner’s beef here is that within that sort of mindset, the LAPD forgot that every cop is part of the same criminal enterprise, and they know how things truly are. He figured out there is no due process among theives, and like any betrayed gang member he came after the people he thought had their back.

This is how you square his ‘liberalism’ with his actions here. He was part of the system, got screwed by it, knows the system is criminal, and took criminal reprisals against it.

I have no doubt what Dorner was saying was true about getting fired for his partner’s abuse of power. I’m just shocked this hasn’t happened sooner.

The LAPD is a gang, and they screwed the wrong gang member, and now he’s doing what any screwed killer is wont to do - kill members of his former gang, and their family members.

The LAPD are trying to figure out how to put the toothpaste back into the tube now. Dorner’s just reinforced the perceptions everyone’s had of the LAPD for a long time.

Dorner’s killing cops now because no matter what he’s never going to get a fair trial. The scary part for the LAPD is that we all may end up figuring that out, and since they are apparently helpless against one dude, they aren’t going to be any more effective against two or more.

Dorner's correct route was through a lawsuit...not murder.

He's scum.

“......but if his daughter and her fiance are murdered, then the cop would experience real pain until he died.”

I don’t know if the person who said this was praising Dorner’s actions or not. But the statement is true.

Jackbooted thugs who break into people’s houses and scare the hell out of everyone and cops who shoot people’s dogs and generally mistreat law abiding citizens are also reasons for this facination with Dorner. I’m not saying people are rooting FOR Dorner. I’m saying they’re rooting AGAINST the cops.

The left and especially defense lawyers push this “snap” thing. There’s no such thing as “snap.”

“snap” is undefined in the law books. It has no meaning. Its purpose is to sway juries to give innocent verdicts.

The left doesn’t believe in free will or personal responsibility for actions. We are just material automatons, with no higher-order thought processes.

Troubling, but not surprising. The ignorsnt, raging, lawless minority, entitlement class often choose psychopaths as their "heros".

Before its over we may start getting copycats or others joining Dorner.

That is a very scary thought, that occurred to me yesterday.

I am being very honest when I say, that I believe Obama, his administration, and their agenda, is responsible for the environment of fear, racial tension, and stress that we now have, and may end up being infamous for starting a horrible historic period. I hope not.

Why does the left admire this POS so much? Because it is a perfect example of what they want all “poor” “downtrodden” “oppressed” “underclass” people to be. Angry. Violent. Uncontrollable. Rebelling against the established order.

I think there are some people that just like that he is giving it to the police and being successful.

From my experience I would wager that there are plenty of sick puppies on this very forum who feel that way.

No more troubling than the support for the Marxist-In-Chief.

A couple of things...Those kops who shot up the truck in my eyes are just as much murderers as Dorner...Their intent was to murder, in the back...Kops will kill your pets for convenience and fun, and constantly get away with it...

They bust into wrong houses without warrants even and murder completely innocent victims...And get away with it...

Kops are making a pretty bad reputation for themselves country wide...

And the other things is, this guy Dorner’s future was destroyed...I don’t try to justify what he is charged with because that of course is unacceptable but it sickens me to watch some arrogant employers and bosses treat others with so little respect...

You unjustly take away a man’s livlihood, in some cases you are lighting a powder keg...More people ought to realize that...

And so far, we can’t be sure if Dorner is guilty of anything, can we???

One thing’s for certain...They plan to kill Dorner before he can get an audience to listen to his side...

Dorner is not my cult hero but I can see why he fulfills that role for some...

As Gerald Celente said, “When people lose everything and have nothing left to lose, they lose it.”

I think this really is an example of that and we can see this sort of thing only increase.

Agreed and it makes me sad to see it.

Yep, I think that, between the Django movie and Dorner’s actions,
there will be many more that are “inspired” to take action on what 0bama has been fomenting for his entire political career.

What more can one expect from liberals?

Nothing you said gives Dorner the right to murder people. Nothing. You are sick for thinking otherwise. BTW, you spelled “cops” wrong.

I had forgotten that Dorner said he saw the movie “Django”. I can’t help but wonder if seeing that movie was the direct event responsible for setting him off. About the same timeframe, right? Sounds like a case against violent movies. Well, at least ones where blacks take it to THE MAN.

Most people who get fired from a job just go out and find another one.

If they don’t they probably needed firing.
