Christopher Dorner died of gunshot wound to the head which might have been self-inflicted

Authorities say fugitive former cop Christopher Dorner died of a single gunshot wound to the head as authorities were pumping tear gas into a mountain cabin during a deadly gun battle with sheriff's deputies.

San Bernardino County sheriff's Capt. Sheriff John McMahon told reporters Friday that it appears the wound was self-inflicted.

Deputies said they heard one final gunshot from the cabin as it was going up in flames during Tuesday's gunbattle. Before he died, Dorner killed one sheriff's deputy and wounded another during a fierce shootout.

Authorities initially were unsure whether Dorner killed himself, had been struck by a deputy's bullet or had died in a fire that engulfed the cabin during the shootout.

-- What the reward conditions didn't say was that he had to be alive. --

"Alive" is implied, and a necessary condition of "arrest" and of "conviction."

It was disgusting, even seeing some of it here on Free Republic, and that was disturbing to me.

“He is a highly trained person with specialized training! They will never find him!”

“He was fighting against injustice in the LAPD!”

“He is miles away from them, probably laughing at them!”

“He has them right where he wants them!”

And so on.

In the end, he was just another deranged, violent liberal dipstick who killed innocent people then stumbled and tripped when the noose began tightening.

A 350 pound liberal a-hole who was going to truck around in Big Bear in the winter, covering his tracks in the snow, living under infra-red evading tarps, carrying cans of 50 cal sniper rife ammo with his Barrett slung over one shoulder and a manpad over the other, evading the law like Rambo, etc.

He was a stupid, fat, paranoid slob who didn’t have the brainpower to figure out how to survive NORMALLY in a society created in the image of one HE advocated, if his idiotic “manifesto” was any indication. His “manifesto” was so lame it made The Unabomber’s manifesto look intelligent by comparison.

Well, I give him credit. At least he had two brain cells to rub together which caused his finger trigger to contract while the gun was pointed at his own head.

I am still disconcerted by some of the sentiment I saw displayed on this very site.

It makes one wonder.

Well Dorner was alive when he came to a "rest" in the cabin and he was alive when he had enough "conviction" to pull the trigger.

Well stated. Amazing how many so-called conservatives rushed to the defense of a liberal, murderous POS!

I have to agree. His manifesto was full of typos and grammar problems. He seemed very low IQ. I saw on DU how they were praising his intelligence. Obvious affirmative action thinking going on there.

"...He seemed very low IQ..."

There have been assertions about how tests used to measure various things from job suitability to intelligence are skewed by inherent racism in those tests. I don't believe that is primarily the case.

But if there were a test that measured "Media IQ" as imparted on a person by the media and liberalism, he would have a very high IQ by that standard, as twisted as it is.

His very ability to interpret his surroundings was indelibly impressed upon him by watching television like CNN, ABC, CBS and NBC, reading papers such as the NYT, Boston Globe and Washington Post and magazines such as Time and Newsweek, and by drinking in the elixir of liberalism that they have been brewing up since Woodrow Wilson was president.

I found the manifesto to be manifestly creepy in that way, the celebrity worship and cult of personality that it was rife with. There are a lot of people like him who are simply saturated with that.

And many of them want to go much further down the path of "Change" as exemplified by the radicals now in charge of the Democratic party.

I got the impression there were a number of people who really weren’t thinking it through. And there were some who were on board with it even after looking at the whole situation.
