If a father kills the man who murdered his child, that father will go to prison. If we don't accept vigilante justice for the general public then we cannot accept vigilante justice for the police. It's really that simple.
Not an apt analogy, it was clear from the beginning that Dorner wouldn't allow himself to be taken alive.
The LAPD (why exactly were there?) didn't even attempt to get him out alive.
Did they have a duty to do so? Besides, Dorner was murdering cops up to the end, so the idea that he was going to surrender is a specious one, and the idea that he was no longer a threat is an even more specious idea.
The LAPD wasn't there. San Bernardino County Sheriff's fired the incendiary tear gas canister in after regular tear gas failed to remove Dorner from the cabin.
The lengths cop haters will go to defend a murderer like Dorner is quite impressive (but also a little scary).
The LAPD (why exactly were there?) didn't even attempt to get him out alive.
Why should they? He never made any attempt to turn himself in, he stated that he would not be taken alive, and why should they risk anyone else being killed by this heavily armed killer? He got exactly what he deserved.
Dorner was wrong in shooting and killing innocent people. The LAPD were wrong for shooting at innocent people. The LAPD was also wrong for burning the cabin down in a fit of rage and revenge. None of this is OK.
again, the burning could have been done by Dorner himself.
It could have happened when they heard the gun shot after a tear gas canister was shot into/toward the cabin (the most likely cause of the fire).
If you think they deliberately set fire to a cabin, you are as deluded as the rest of the posters who think the same.
The LAPD (why exactly were there?) didn't even attempt to get him out alive.
seeing as he was holed up in a cabin with an arsenal and already shot at two officers, killing one. can you tell us exactly how they were going to get him out alive? Keep him up there shooting at people for the next 3 weeks?
Due Process is guaranteed by the Constitution. No matter Dorner's actions or state of mind, he was entitled to Due Process under the United States Constitution.
I am astounded and ashamed how many American's continue to surrender their rights. There will be a eventual backlash to this, and then it will be too late.
Fools.
