Also, how did they know nobody else was in the house with Dorner before they torched the place “like planned”? He tied up two people in another house just hours before.

If they did burn other people in the house, we would never know. The fallout would be unimaginable.

Shooting at random people in cars and blindly burning down homes are not the actions of legitimate police. These are the actions of a jackboot secret police that is willing to gamble with the lives of citizens to save their own a**es. Even though they (allegedly) got lucky in this case and didn't kill anyone while getting their man, there's absolutely no justification for such recklessness.

Excellent questions. I’d like some public answers.

Some say that the difference between a cop and a criminal is sometimes just the uniform. I’m not quite that cynical. I know some good officers and have had some family members who were cops. But there seem to be more and more incidents these days involving cops who are out of line.
