He's a criminal who killed innocent people. I have no sympathy for him at all. The Velveteen Ocelot Feb 2013 #5

He killed an innocent woman just because she happened to be the daughter of one of his enemies. BlueStater Feb 2013 #6

The guy whose daughter Dorner is accused of killing was Dorner's lawyer. LisaL Feb 2013 #59

I think that some are unfortunately confusing their opinion of LAPD with the act here: freshwest Feb 2013 #105

That fact, alone... DollarBillHines Feb 2013 #71

Revenge. How would you feel if you worked with a guy that shot your daughter? southernyankeebelle Feb 2013 #27

did the Father of the coach he killed shoot his daughter ? JI7 Feb 2013 #29

I don't know who you are talking about. I am just responding to the question. He southernyankeebelle Feb 2013 #33

Your post makes it sound as though Dorner sought revenge because the father of the coach had killed tblue37 Feb 2013 #56

Listen I don't know who was killed. I don't know anything about about a coach killing southernyankeebelle Feb 2013 #72

This is the post you responded to—and your response: tblue37 Feb 2013 #73

Thank you for clearing it up. I was answering the question. I was assuming this southernyankeebelle Feb 2013 #76

But it was Dorner who was after revenge, not the father of the murdered girl. tblue37 Feb 2013 #98

I know that is what I was trying to say. southernyankeebelle Feb 2013 #99

is that a rhetorical question or are you really addressing it to me? mike_c Feb 2013 #45

I'm sure Dorner would find it completely unacceptable dkf Feb 2013 #64

I agree bklyncowgirl Feb 2013 #51

who's asking anyone to support him? frylock Feb 2013 #10

Welcome to DU Logic where, if you don't immediately drop to your knees and coalition_unwilling Feb 2013 #24

Support him? No. Warpy Feb 2013 #26

He already "spilled his guts" in his manifesto. LisaL Feb 2013 #28

That "manifesto" was rambling and disjointed Warpy Feb 2013 #43

Oh give me a break. LisaL Feb 2013 #57

Someone might be interested in blowing the lid Warpy Feb 2013 #60

Based on how the first Ramparts scandal got pretty much swept under the rug, save coalition_unwilling Feb 2013 #95

so why didn't they kill him in all the years since he was fired ? JI7 Feb 2013 #31

His manifesto makes his actions worse IMO... Kalidurga Feb 2013 #30

And he wants to die eventually, suicide by cop for sure flamingdem Feb 2013 #50

The girl he is accused of killing is the daughter of retired cop turned lawyer who was defending him LisaL Feb 2013 #54

Quan was retired. He was Dorner's lawyer. I don't think Dorner hang out with his family. LisaL Feb 2013 #67

I just hope he doesn't kill any more people Coolest Ranger Feb 2013 #55

How clear is it that he committed the murders? DeadEyeDyck Feb 2013 #61

Which is why we should get behind facts, not people. DirkGently Feb 2013 #63

He could have sued or gone to the media. Killing is inexcusable. liberal_at_heart Feb 2013 #66
