To summarize.....

Dorner = Hitler
LAPD = Stalin
California citizens =Poland

.....any questions?


Sure, if poland spent decades voting for and empowering asswipes who were responsible for Stalin.


I have very little sympathy for Californians as a whole. The majority of them are directly responsible for the CF that is california

Poland...Venezuela...Cuba II...who's quibbling?

Meanwhile, the Occupation Legislature in Sacramento is having the time of its life.  I hear the mission system is coming back as of the next general election.

The LAPD certainly has their share of incidents.  I have a relative that was a police captain who was fired for excessive use of force.  I have no problem with that action other than he was not fired due to the actual excessive force, but rather because the department and county was being sued for excessive force.  There is an important difference and one that the people should take notice of.

This is kind of wow...

Quote
One Facebook page is proclaiming Dorner for president. “We propose electing a man who could no longer sit idly by and watch as malicious tyrants abuse the innocent.”

The description on “We Are All Chris Dorner” chillingly says, “Yes, this is war.”  Nearly 3,000 people like the page “I Support Christopher Jordan Dorner.”

http://sacramento.cbslocal.com/2013/02/08/support-growing-for-former-l-a-officer-accused-of-killing-spree/


Wonder how many people used their real facebook account to "like" the page.

We have gone from the antihero to the anti-anti-anti-anti-antihero.  Dorner is like the people in the Occupy Wall Street movement: half romantic, half insane.  He is a pop-culture hero in a pop culture that is aimed at 11 year olds.

I can do plenty of lulz at the cops exposing their own incompetence by shooting asian ladies

Weird...Dorner shot and killed one asian lady, the LAPD shot two. I know there are many asians in California, but what are the odds of that happening?

Wasn't there another truck fired upon by a suburban PD? Have they said who was in that truck?

Gotta love this - The second incident was in Torrence

"At that point, a driver in another pickup truck that look similar to Dorner’s drove toward them on Flagler Lane near Beryl Street. Officers, suspecting it was Dorner, purposely collided with the truck and shot at him.The driver wasn’t hurt, avoiding bullets that had ripped through his windshield.

“I heard some man yell at somebody and I saw this argument on the street,” said Ana Filova, a woman living in her car near Dominguez Park.

Filova said she heard someone yell “cuffs” and then heard two shots, followed by a pause and a third shot.

“I said, `Mama Mia, that’s gunshots,” she said. “I was scared. I was shaking from fear.”

Torrance police Sgt. Chris Roosen said the officers were unhurt. He thanked the driver for cooperating in the investigation."

An innocent person being shot at and having their truck rammed by cops normally might encourage them to cooperate.   :facepalm:

If I lived there or was staying there right now, I would be way the heck more concerned about the rogue cops than the rogue ex-cop.

For one thing, there are thousands of cops and only one of him so the chances of being hurt or killed by cops are far greater.

If by "cooperating" you mean he didn't return fire, I can understand your gratitude. I wouldn't expect much more "cooperation" if you keep acting like the Keystone KGB....

i know we all look alike but i don't think they are asian   the last 2

I heard that  two Asian ladies were shot by the LAPD while delivering newspapers.
A big problem CA has is giving the drivers test in both Cantonese and Mandarin, Vietnamese and other Asian dialects without requiring the driver to understand English, I've tried to explain to Asian woman drivers in CA that the "right turn only" sign means they they turn right and not run me off the road - it was a huge chore, they never understood a word I said and I had to avoid them because they were just freaking clueless.

The cops ordered the two Asian ladies to stop and were shot at after they ignored the cops, probably because they had no idea that a manhunt was on and no idea what the cops were saying.

Does this mean that the cops could see they were two older Asian women (and ostensibly that they were tossing newspapers out the window as they slowly rolled past each house) and they still treated them with an ROE suited to an allegedly unhinged murderer? Also how did they "order them," did they have a dude waving hand signals, a guy pointing a rifle at them, a cruiser with flashing lights and siren?

And this still begets questions regarding the other "mistaken identity accident" where the cops announced themselves by ramming a guy off the road and then trying to shoot him through the windshield. Did that fellow "ignore the cops"?

I've seen folks breach the security line on the water at Naval Station Norfolk back in 2003 when we were honestly rather trigger happy, and they were regarded with greater self-restraint than the LAPD has demonstrated in the last few days.

Cops will be cops. Thinking themselves above the law as a uniformed military service. Will the 2 jack offs that shot the Asian ladies face criminal action as they should?  No. And that's all you need to know about LAPD and the general thinking in LE circles

LAPD Cmdr. Andrew Smith says the department's Chief Charlie Beck met with the women in their Torrance home Saturday to apologize and tell them he had arranged for someone to donate a new pickup truck.

I will say this. NONE of us here know jack about the two shootings of the vehicles/drivers. So how about we all calm the hell down and see what shakes out when more info becomes available? Yall are always quick to crucify cops after OIS incidents (like the cops that shot the guy in the wheelchair...when it turned out he was trying to actively kill one of the LEOs using a knife). Im not defending or attacking the officers involved in the two shootings just yet, lets see what the rest of the story is. After all, the media is always so accurate and informative, especially with "breaking news"...

My point is we do not know.

At least  they are trying to make amends. There isnt a way to truly compensate for what happened to the people but its a lot better than saying "screw them" and doing nothing

Paid administrative leave is universal SOP in an officer involved shooting while the investigation is conducted.
