LOS ANGELES (AP) -- There was no question. The man standing before Rick Heltebrake on a rural mountain road was Christopher Dorner. Clad in camouflage from head to toe and wearing a bulletproof vest packed with ammunition, the most wanted man in America over the last week was just a few feet away, having emerged from a grove of trees holding a large, assault-style rifle.

I’m glad he’s dead, but did the cops deliberately execute him? OF COURSE...!

And they have done that also when the target was a church full of women and kids —burned it right down.

If you give cops tons of kook gear it’s just a matter of time before they want to use it. If they don’t, then they see all the ninjya nomex as making for WASTE, or something.

They killed him, and they knew what they were doing.

Notice the nuance “his deputies”. It was LAPD SWAT that lit the house up.

They were called to the Central Station a 1:00pm and reported to the helipad. Plenty of time to fly the 70 miles. There is even chatter on the scanner record about an LAPD helo needing a fuel stop.

Hey there you!! LOL..not sure what to think anymore. LAPD shooting up surfer dudes and newspaper people last week and now burning down private property. Wondering though if this will be how they come for our guns next. Just burn people out of their homes. That some cannot see the slippery slope astounds me. I could be wrong of course. Nice to see you around!! Tell TheMom hello!

Considering no one has posted an audio clip yet, I take it with a grain of salt.

1:01 - "We're going to go forward with the plan, with the burn."

1:28 - "Burners deployed and we have a fire"

I’d say it’s a case of plausible deniability.

They didn’t want it to come to trial, because it would be a race-baiting clown circus, with the media jumping through hoops.

Also, possibly, because he was fired earlier from the LAPD not for lying about his fellow cops, but because he spoke out when he was supposed to shut up and go along with it. That would by no means excuse his going around shooting people, including innocent victims who had nothing to do with his firing. But it might explain why the LAPD wanted him dead.

Also, he was going around shooting LEOs all over the place, which is not a permissable activity.

This appears to have been rough justice. On the other hand, even if his charges against the LAPD were true—which is in question—I think he had earned the death penalty for many deliberate murders, and more in the future if he was given the chance. And California has no death penalty for murder.

I don’t like to see cops taking the law into their own hands—but that’s what happens when the justice system breaks down.

Hey thanks Eaker! Here is what I posted on the other thread if anyone is interested:

Here are the times and what I tweeted(just went back and wrote it all down) Keep in mind time for typing and that this was after Dorner had holed up in the cabin and the shoot out in the street.

4:26 pm orders heard given not to fire on house unless something seen coming from house
4:29 cops say they have plenty of help up here, no more officers needed
5:00 reports of checking missing person report and possible hostages
5:57 heard them say they were going to the ‘burn plan’.
6:15 report of possible gas coming ‘from the house’
6:17 ‘burners deployed’ and ‘we have fire’
6:20 called for fire engines
6:21 shots fired from inside house
6:23 ammo exploding

Those are times and contents of my tweets while listening to the scanner for those interested. I also lost scanner feed for a time before all of this came in loud and clear.

The guy asked for - and recieved - suicide by cop. A fate often sought by these spree killers.

And that exonerates the cops from acting as Judge, Jury, and Executioner, how?

Did anyone on FR not think that as soon as this guy showed his face he would be dead in a few minutes? I just assumed they’d kill him and there’d be no trial.

What another brainless remark—”...did not intend...”.

When you lob pyrotechnic tear gas into a dwelling, there is a high likelihood it will start a fire. And with no fireman around to put it out, there is a further high likelihood it will burn out of control. And when it burns outta control there is also a high likelihood it will burn the building down. So these are the guys with the guns and who do not want us to have em.

Soon the Reverends will drag Droners mom through the different hate America channels.

He shot and killed an unarmed woman.

In the progressive world of Bill Maher, Rachael Maddow, etc, he is a hero.
