In reply to the discussion: Dorner admitted to killings, targeting lesbians for being 'misandrist' and defended Chick Fil-A [View all]abelenkpe
(9,933 posts)33. He admitted to murder so it's the LAPD's job to
capture him and bring him to trial. Wish they'd stop shooting up old women delivering newspapers and bald surfers who drive different vehicles. Shooting people not properly identified makes the police look more like a posse out for revenge intent on killing someone than those dedicated to protecting the public. And honestly as a resident of LA that concerns me.
