We'll probably never know for sure (about Dorner's guilt).

Dorner will be dead without a trial.

His truck and everything in it was burned to a cinder.

The department collecting evidence and hunting him down is the same one that burned him for being a whistle-blower.

I am in a different movie than you. In my movie the alleged villian Dorner redeems himself by

ridding the countryside of the real villain, the LA Pig Department. I recognize the concept of "a greater good". To you that concept is simply a theatric device. But, then, I have been in a few movies. You probably have not.

Determinative guilt by mob is not something that interests me. Cheney snapped at birth. Dorner snapped by continued duress at the hands of the master of duress. I can give compassion and understanding to that, particularly as I personally know about the corruption of LAPD and their leader in corruption Randal Quan. Dorner is either dead now or will be shorty. The pound of flesh enjoyed by some will be no where near the resultant cleansing effects on the LAPD produced by Dorner's martrydom. Meanwhile, I'll continue to support Dorner if that support results in the dismantling of the LA Pig Department. Thank you for your time.

Dorner's sympathizers are more vocal than his detractors here. geek tragedy Feb 2013 #21
