    Good to know. That's rash...but then again, I'm not a black man who has repeatedly dealt with racism in the work place...but yeah could have been handled much better. But I think we can agree, every man has done something they regret doing in the heat of the moment.

    I'm sure someone already said it, but these people are going to get a helluva settlement from the Cities whose departments shot first and never asked any questions.

    And if they don't, it'll only fuel the defamation of the LAPD.

    Don't be so naive. I imagine that this was a stragetic statement to the media by the Captain to deter other false tips. Make no mistake, there will be Hundreds of Thousands of false leads/tips from the public.

    I'm not sure how the LAPD officer involved shooting investigations work, but im sure that there will be a full investigation into the shootings of the Blue Tacoma and the Black Ridgeline, and if the officers were not justified will be punished accordingly, at least that is my hope. That kind of stuff does not fly up here.

    I'll crawl back under my rock here in Canada and let you all get back to it. If he crosses the border we'll ask him nicely to turn around and give him some maple syrup.

    Sorry if this has already been answered but how did the LAPD find some of Dorner's belongings in San Diego? The only thing I could find was the original 3 people were murdered Sunday night and then somehow somebody found some of his belongings such as police equipment and paperwork with LAPD names in a trash bin near San Diego. That's when the LAPD named him the suspect.

    From my research, they've been extremely vague on this. They claimed he likely tried to hijack a boat but a rope was stuck in the prop, so he fled.

    I guess my question was who found the items? I know mistakes will probably be made by this guy but it seems unusual to not have any leads and then all of a sudden find these things in a trash bin.

    No matter what happens to Chris, these cops need to serve time for attempted murder.

    Sadly, no. Their piece of shit commissioner publicly applauded their effort to apprehend Chris.

    Really mother fucker? The douch****** officers *SHOT THROUGH THE FUCKING WINDSHIELD*, and lit up both the Driver and passenger side.

    That looks like they were trying to kill to me.

    Good point, look how many rounds are in the passenger side window.. wtf is that all about? They just assumed the suspect was both a driver and a passenger?

    Shoddy shells on the ground too. Unloaded pistol and pulled out a shotgun with no PID. Sprayed everywhere. Disgusting. No excuse.

    ...too much shit to list.
    What aim. Thats panic point and shoot. Neither officer aimed for shit other than pointed the firearm in the general vicinity and squeezing as fast as they could.

    They were freaking out

    See above.

    I'd really like to see them try to call this a clean shooting
