That you refer to an attempt at a peaceful resolution as wasted speaks volumes.

Especially since it came from your imagination and keyboard.

They didn't try for a peaceful resolution

The fugitive had 6 days to surrender peacefully, didn't he?

the shooting had stopped by the time the SWAT team showed up

Then what evidence do you have that the POS was still alive? Awfully presumptuous of you, isn't it?

they knew he was wounded due to the visible blood splatter they observed

Another presumption on your part. How could anyone know the condition of the fugitive? How could anyone besides the bleeder know whose blood it was?

No attempt to negotiate

Dorner had 6 days to negotiate, peacefully surtrender and get due process. He didn't, he chose to fire on police and die at their hand. His defenders and apologists are just as stupid as he was.

the gold standard for police conduct

Your mindless allegations are proof of your bleeding heart liberalism.

I refer you back to your post #399:

How long are they required to wait? How many man hours do you require to be wasted?

Silly me I though you were serious when you described it as, quoting again: "man hours do you require to be wasted?"

Amazing. Who surrenders when there is a chance of escape? More to the point, who surrenders when, as he correctly predicted, he would be shot first chance any LEO had.

Then what evidence do you have that the POS was still alive? Awfully presumptuous of you, isn't it?

If he were dead, there wouldn't be any point in burning down the building, now would there? (Unless maybe the intent was as a terrorist threat against anyone else tempted to break the Code of Silence? Nahhh...)

Another presumption on your part. How could anyone know the condition of the fugitive?

They couldn't, but they did know the shooting had stopped.

How could anyone besides the bleeder know whose blood it was?

If there was any thought that it wasn't his blood would't that mean they deliberately burned an innocent civilian hostage?

Your mindless allegations are proof of your bleeding heart liberalism.

Hardly.

If he did what is said of him, well, that is indefensible.

I'm not defending him.

But we have this little thingy called a Constitution, and when we start tossing that in the fire every time some cops get pissed off, we don't live in a Constitutional Republic any more.

It becomes mob rule with badges and better weapons than ordinary citizens are allowed to have in many jurisdictions. It is only a short step to outright corruption from there.

Either the law applies, or it doesn't. If those sworn to uphold the law can hold it in obvious contempt, don't be surprised when others who are so inclined ignore it as well.

And people wonder why trust for law enforcement has gone in the toilet.
