Manhunt for ex-LA cop suspected of shooting 3 cops and killing 2 others
Ex-cop wages 'war' against former colleagues - CNN.com
This is bizarre to say the least. Quote:

Police shoot two in Torrance in search for ex-LAPD cop - latimes.com
What the hell is wrong with these cops? Shooting unarmed citizens because you "think" that's the suspect. Get these dickheads off the street and disarm them ASAP.

LAPD is corrupt. Its a horrible thing, but these institutions sow their seeds.

This story is like a movie, if this guy was Jason Bourne gone bad. The manifesto is compelling, yet downright creepy.

I am not doubting any accusations coming from this guy but killing isn't the right way to address your concerns.
Also think the LAPD doesn't need to shoot random suspects but they've been doing that since day one. They view this as a war and will act in that way

Re: Manhunt for ex-LA cop suspected of shooting 3 cops and killing 2 others
1. I find the amount of credibility given to a murderer appalling;
2. The man is a coward and a despicable human being for targeting the family members of those he blames; 3. The LAPD is an imperfect government agency staffed by honorable and dishonorable, competent and incompetent people. As such, it differs only in degree from every other government agency in existence; 4. Any officer discharging their weapons at civilians should be immediately suspended from the force pending a revocation hearing. Nothing, nothing, nothing justifies this man's actions. This is a warped individual who clearly has a warped view of right and wrong - to give credence to his "word" is to give credence to his warped view.

No offense JR, but judicial system is just as complicit and crooked as the cops. Judges and lawyers are bought off all the time and to think otherwise is simply being naive. Being paranoid doesn't make you wrong, and who's the say that this girlfriend isn't some lunatic that wants revenge on her ex? Furthermore, I'm absolutely sick and ****ing tired of every time somebody exposes something, they are "deranged" or "crazy". You know what's crazy? Allowing corrupt cops and lawyers to continue running a corrupt system where the cops can do whatever they want and nothing happen. Executed. Yet this cop was cleared. Wrongful-death lawsuit filed against LA County Sheriff's Department in fatal shooting | abc7.com How many cops were sentenced for this? None. I believe Dorner more than I do crooked cops and judges, who continue to cover up crimes commited by LA law enforcers.

Your inherent prejudices are obvious. You instantly credit the word of a murderer who leaves a twenty page rant but call an ex-girlfriend's allegations "tripe" even though they are facially no more or less credible than his. I found nothing in her statements that seemed overly vindictive or angry - just the statements of a scared ex. Why are her statements instantly discredited by you? Why are they to be accorded so little weight? B/c she is an ex-girlfriend? No, because she disagrees with your perception. Of course, had she blamed the other officers or given a statement in accord with your beliefs, I have no doubt she would have gain instant credibility in your eyes and cited in support of your position. In and of themselves, her statements are proof of nothing, but, in light of Dorner's own words and actions, I find them much more convincing than not of his delusional world view. As to "being wrong", I do not assert that the LAPD is not still having issues - just as itventop mentioned - at the same time, federal oversight was removed b/c of the strides made and as observed by independent federal investigators. Is that conclusive? of course not, but it should be seen for what it was - non-LAPD investigators finding actual improvement. Did you read the Rampart Report? the original Consent Decree? or the ruling of Judge Feess? Quote:
As for the anecdotal cases you bring forward, you may be right - they may be just as bad as you suggest. There may, of course, be another side to the story - one which doesn't fit into a 10 minute youtube clip and which you would undoubtedly & instantly discredit b/c it would most likely contradict with your world view that cops are guilty of any and all alleged corruption and evil until their innocence is proven beyond a reasonable doubt. I have no idea if police are being sanctioned more or less than they were 10, 20 or 30 years ago. I googled it and didn't see anything that looked like a legitmate comprehensive study on the issue. Everyday, however, their are literally 1000's of interactions between civilians and law enforcement. Undoubtedly, there will be wrongs committed and, equally undoubtedly, police brutality and corruption are real things. However, it does seem to me that, in this day and age of cell phones and videos, the public actions of police are under more scrutiny than they have ever been before. I also know from my professional interactions with police departments and police officers that there are more and more safeguards put in place against the abuse of authority than there were even 10 years ago. To be clear, I consider that a good thing. Of course you do - he may be a murderer, but he is a murderer who preaches to your choir so he must be right. To me, based on the entirety of his ramblings and his murderous actions, I find him to be an individual who perceptions are deeply and inherently flawed and, thus, find his words to carry as much weight as the paper on which they are printed and no more.

Re: Manhunt for ex-LA cop suspected of shooting 3 cops and killing 2 others
Well, in fairness, Bently wrote a book about the LAPD's endemic racism while he was still on the force. Pretty significant way to man up on the matter.
