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).

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.

doesn't matter. What matters is that they were forcibly taken against their will, by a known shooter, and held against their will as hostages.

they didn't know if he meant what he said or not. If you were in that situation, I'm sure you'd take his word as well (not).

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.

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?

Default United States Constitutioin

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.
