No.

Not all of us are impressed with LAPD or take their words at face value.

Dorner abandon his vehicle because of a broken axle. [View all] warrior1 Feb 2013 OP

Of course it could have never have snapped in a hot fire. nadinbrzezinski Feb 2013 #1

He would need you to think this is all part of the grand plan. dkf Feb 2013 #11

Nope, I am just watching LAPD dance to his tune nadinbrzezinski Feb 2013 #15

Reveling in this isn't very seemly. It's a tragedy all the way around. dkf Feb 2013 #21

Who's reveling in this? nadinbrzezinski Feb 2013 #29

Relax. And consider who said that. kestrel91316 Feb 2013 #59

I know. nadinbrzezinski Feb 2013 #60

What? That reply by nadinbrezinski didn't sound at all like "reveling". AlinPA Feb 2013 #70

In addition, the area where his car was found has a lot of forest Fawke Em Feb 2013 #24

The area has two roads that come in and out. nadinbrzezinski Feb 2013 #32

Thanks. I figured it was a ski resort from the aerial shot I saw. Fawke Em Feb 2013 #45

Two PAVED roads in and out. Yavapai Feb 2013 #67

Mom has undeveloped land nadinbrzezinski Feb 2013 #68

It's a nice area, when it's not on fire. Yavapai Feb 2013 #72

You made me laugh nadinbrzezinski Feb 2013 #73

He was the one making claims about being a great shot in his manifesto. LisaL Feb 2013 #25

And the police said yup, yup, yup nadinbrzezinski Feb 2013 #31

Pardon me, he appears to be good enough shot. LisaL Feb 2013 #35

That's not the point. nadinbrzezinski Feb 2013 #36

That guy gave the coin to thousands of people. LisaL Feb 2013 #41

Did thousands of LAPD officers deploy? nadinbrzezinski Feb 2013 #44

Five hundred members of the LAPD deployed to Iran and Afghanistan Brother Buzz Feb 2013 #53

^^This^^ longship Feb 2013 #13

And...125 officers are playing hide and seek in the mountains. nadinbrzezinski Feb 2013 #16

There's a lot of mountain up there. longship Feb 2013 #18

Which is exactly what Van Zandt said. nadinbrzezinski Feb 2013 #19

how many cars did he have? warrior1 Feb 2013 #20

Doesn't matter. He could always steal one. Fawke Em Feb 2013 #27

You'd think the cops would know nadinbrzezinski Feb 2013 #28

If the truck was on a paved road, the axle was likely broken Warpy Feb 2013 #77

i'm not sure of the timeline, but is there a chance he could have gotten a ride from a friend? farminator3000 Feb 2013 #90

Snapped axle shaft, broken ring gear tooth, etc all relatively common and possible SWTORFanatic Feb 2013 #69

I guess the question is whether it could be caused by a vehicle fire. longship Feb 2013 #71

That was me. beevul Feb 2013 #75

Y'all see how awesome DU is? longship Feb 2013 #76

Might have neen the axle shaft, not housing. HooptieWagon Feb 2013 #80

Right, but the question is, how would they know that? beevul Feb 2013 #81

OK, i thought it was a Toyota. HooptieWagon Feb 2013 #82

well was he going to Mexico or Big Bear warrior1 Feb 2013 #2

That's an awfully rare failure in a modern pickup truck Fumesucker Feb 2013 #3

Could he break the axel for effect? flamingdem Feb 2013 #5

It was probably a controlled implosion slackmaster Feb 2013 #6

Ahh the ole micro-thermite flamingdem Feb 2013 #9

If the vehicle was front-wheel or all-wheel drive, it's not that hard to Fawke Em Feb 2013 #34

Just out of imcomprehensible curiosity Catherina Feb 2013 #66

If a vehicle tears a CV boot on the front axle... beevul Feb 2013 #79

I love you... Fawke Em Feb 2013 #91

Thank you =D beevul Feb 2013 #92

I don't think it has independant suspension. HooptieWagon Feb 2013 #87

but in this case it happened warrior1 Feb 2013 #8

I've seen your last sentence posted a lot.......... socialist_n_TN Feb 2013 #38

Not if you are off-roading me thinks. BootinUp Feb 2013 #10

Eh, the pictures I've seen of the truck didn't look like it was particularly rough terrain Fumesucker Feb 2013 #14

which is more likely? ChairmanAgnostic Feb 2013 #40

They use license reading cameras for those toll systems Fumesucker Feb 2013 #51

Broke an axel? That may show his state of mind.... wandy Feb 2013 #50

So, is he carrying a .50 caliber rifle, ammunition for it, and shoulder-fired rockets on foot now? slackmaster Feb 2013 #4

Exactly, this gives the lie to the idea of all that weaponry flamingdem Feb 2013 #7

that's was he said he had warrior1 Feb 2013 #12

LOL. Maybe he had another vehicle Cali_Democrat Feb 2013 #17

He doesn't have to be superhuman in order to kill people. LisaL Feb 2013 #23

Yeah, he doesn't. But as the other poster above said..... socialist_n_TN Feb 2013 #39

LAPD does not want Doerner to see the inside of a courtroom nadinbrzezinski Feb 2013 #42

Agreed. And he won't...... socialist_n_TN Feb 2013 #46

I can see how, another agency affects the arrest and put in another county's jail nadinbrzezinski Feb 2013 #48

He is already accused of killing a cop. Well, two cops, actually, since the fiancee of LisaL Feb 2013 #43

So it's ok with you that two detectives, err seven officers nadinbrzezinski Feb 2013 #47

not a fan of SDPD, but that's how you handle the situation.. frylock Feb 2013 #61

Not a fan either nadinbrzezinski Feb 2013 #63

You don't think they would need to justify a very public killing?..... socialist_n_TN Feb 2013 #49

I don't believe Dorner plans to surrender. LisaL Feb 2013 #52

It doesn't matter what people believe Cali_Democrat Feb 2013 #54

Of course they shouldn't open fire on innocent people with no questions asked. LisaL Feb 2013 #55

But they have. nadinbrzezinski Feb 2013 #56

Thankfully they managed not to kill anyone. LisaL Feb 2013 #57

Cause they were the lousiest shots I have seen nadinbrzezinski Feb 2013 #58

It sure wasn't for lack of trying, either. kestrel91316 Feb 2013 #64

He could have easily stolen another car by now. LisaL Feb 2013 #22

he very well may have had another vehicle up there in the mountains.. frylock Feb 2013 #62

I'm sure the police would have put that info out warrior1 Feb 2013 #26

They might not know the car is missing. LisaL Feb 2013 #30

Buying a car under an assumed name wouldn't be that hard Fumesucker Feb 2013 #37

Two words: Nevada corporation. He does have a residence in NV. kestrel91316 Feb 2013 #65

"from being the hunter to the hunted" media using his ego to smoke him out possibly? Little Star Feb 2013 #33

That's odd because it's a well-maintained, fairly smooth road. cherokeeprogressive Feb 2013 #74

He could have overloaded the truck, HooptieWagon Feb 2013 #84

This message was self-deleted by its author ahimsa Feb 2013 #78

Dorner reminds me of Robert Fisher ChazII Feb 2013 #83

Update: HooptieWagon Feb 2013 #85

And then set it on fire because.... jazzimov Feb 2013 #86

Either he wanted it found, HooptieWagon Feb 2013 #88

Set it on fire..... speedkills Feb 2013 #93

Axle broke not by the fire, they think. warrior1 Feb 2013 #89
