AND HERE WE GO The LAPD Got their Man How They Wanted Him: Dead Wed, 02/13/2013 - 11:10 by: Dave Lindorff "Burn that fuckin' house down...Fucking burn this motherfucker!!" --Voices overheard on police radio at the scene of the cabin where Chris Dorner was trapped and burned to death It was clear from the outset when fired LAPD cop Chris Dorner began wreaking his campaign of vengeance and terror against his former employer that the California law enforcement establishment, led by the LAPD itself, had no interest in Dorner surviving to face trial, where he could continue to rat out the racist and corrupt underbelly of the one of the country’s biggest police departments. Dorner, as I wrote earlier, claimed he had been fired for speaking up during his three years on the force, through channels and to superior officers, about incidents he had witnessed of police brutality and of the rampant racism that permeates the department -- not just white on black, but black on Asian, Asian on Latino and Latino on white. His response to being sacked -- threatening to kill senior officers he blamed for this law enforcement distopia as well as some of their family members -- was criminally insane, but his complaints, made in a 6000-word post on Facebook, had and continue to have the ring of truth.
They got their way. Trapped in a cabin in the mountain town of Big Bear northwest of Los Angeles last night, Dorner found himself surrounded by SWAT teams. If the police had wanted to capture Dorner at that point, they could have waited him out. They had him sealed off completely. Instead, they reportedly quickly brought in an armored vehicle, had it drive up and break the windows of the cabin. At that point, the official story is that they tossed in teargas grenades, but since these are known, because of their intense heat, to routinely ignite fires, this was simply murder by arson. But there is also word that police radios were confirming execution of a plan to place "burners" into the building. Either way, the sheriffs and cops, once the fire was started, simply watched as the building burned to the ground. (There are some truly sickening recordings of the police and sheriff's deputies at the scene of the standoff discussing their "burn plan" to torch the cabin, and then discussing setting it, and also telling inquiring firefighters that they don't want them to put it out, even telling an inquiring firefighter at one point, "Negative, I still don't have adequate penetration." To hear this last conversation, go here.) The US corporate media from the New York Times to Fox TV have been claiming despite the strong evidence of deliberate arson that the fire was not intentional or that it was not meant to torch Dorner, but outside the US it’s a different story, with even the right-wing Bild newspaper in German saying the fire was “intentionally let by the police.”
Now the challenge will be to see if this episode will lead to a serious outside examination of the sick paramilitary apparatus that is the Los Angeles Police Department, a law enforcement organization that has for decades been a poster child for police abuse, excessive violence, the slaying of unarmed people, internal racism, improper political pressure on both city council and state legislature, rampant spying on law-abiding citizens, and a policy of omerta regarding internal criticism of wrongdoing. Given the department’s long history of fighting tooth-and-nail against oversight and reform, it seems unlikely Dorner’s explosion will have such an effect, but given the instant celebrity he achieved through his actions, even despite his cruel and inexcusable violence, perhaps it will. The public reaction in Los Angeles, as least among many of the populations--black, Latino and poor whites -- who are victimized most often by the police -- has shown that many people are angry and want things changed. While Dorner was at large, and police were gunning for him in their heavy-handed, trigger-happy way, some dark-skinned Angelenos took to wearing shirts saying “Please Don’t Shoot. I’m not Dorner.” Owners of pick-up trucks too, after the incident involving the police shooting of two Latino women in one such vehicle, started writing “Not Dorner” on the backs of their trucks. There's even a I support Dorner Facebook page.
I laughed my ass off as I watched the asshole burn. LAPD did the state a big service by eliminating this sorry bastard and saved us millions in his trial. I would have like to see him spent some time in jail as the inmates play toy but I'll be happy now that satan is butt raping him right now with some rusty barbwire.
I would have like to see him spent some time in jail as the inmates play toy but I'll be happy now that satan is butt raping him right now with some rusty barbwire. And that's exactly how the LAPD wants you to think. Meantime: Who's paying for the house? Who gets the reward? Waiting.
Who gets the reward? Waiting. as a cal taxpayer i'll be more then happy to, it's way cheaper then a trials and years of appeal, plus i don't have to listen to stupid libs talk about how he's made an effort to right his wrong. i will however miss the joy of John and Ken on KFI 640 having a "dorner must die" hour on their show everyday, just like their famous and hilarious daily "tokie (williams)must die" hour.
