California manhunt

Even if they did light the place on fire, I think that's completely understandable, given the circumstances.

Then they are no better than what Dorner was, a murderer

They weren't going to take him alive, and they are just not good enough to have taken him by force without at least 2-3 of them dying.

Since when does the government have the rough ridin' right to destroy someone's home?

There's a lot of weird stuff that happens under the government's watch. Sometimes I think conspiracy theories aren't too far fetched. But I smoked a lot of pot in high school.

  You could get away with saying just about anything if you added this to the end.

It's funny that they've found his wallet w/ ID in 3 different places now too

Uh this isn't China. The guy was a deplorable crap stain but he is still allowed due process. They also had the capability to wait him out. You mean to tell me that the crap kicking hillbillies in Alabama had the capability to better handle a situation when a fugitive is surrounded better than multiple LEO agencies in the nation's richest and most populous state?

Oh well carry on then (but I still think it's bullshit).

california le verge on the incompetent, and that's in comparison to other le.

[Paul Moscow]

Did you guys talk about how they said that the fire wasn't deliberately set but they have audio of someone authorizing to "go forward with the plan with the burn?"



1 minute in on the first video. 1:30 in "burners deployed and we have fire"

burners are a slang term that law enforcement uses for the tear gas canisters used.

This thread can end now.

How many times did the hillbillies in Alabama let the guy get away and open fire on innocent civilians just because they were driving a blue truck? Obviously they are more capable than the LAPD.

If the police were to ever actually burn a place down, they should pay for the damages, obviously.

What about photographs and memories lost?  I'd have to think that kind of pain and suffering is measured in the millions, amirite?

Also glad they didn't shoot him, because of the huge additional cost to society.

Yes so that one post 7 pages into an 8 page thread that garnered two responses wraps up all that is strange, sad, and corrupt with this story. MODS, LOCK IT UP!

Pretty sure the Alabama crew was run by federal agents of some sort

Burn the [redacted] out.

I don't get the expectation to "wait him out."  He was known as armed and for having a vendetta against police officers.  I don't expect the police force to continually risk their lives for one of someone who is trying to kill them.   

Even if you believe Dorner was the victim of a corrupt department, instead of killing people responsible, he killed the innocent children of a person responsible.  When you run the tally of his revenge, he seems to have killed only innocent people and not anybody responsible for his firing.

[Emo EMAW]

I guess the police were certain he was in there by himself?

I would certainly hope so. If they burned that place down and killed somebody other than Dorner, those responsible should fry.

From what I heard they were, but I might be a day or so behind in this
