Has Accused Killer Christopher Dorner Become a Folk Hero?


Los Angeles, CA—Fired LAPD cop Christopher Dorner has bared his tortured soul in a manifesto of sorts he’s posted both on Facebook and on a military website where he made regular contributions.
In his essay Dorner complained that members of the LAPD were racist and victimized him because he was Black and because he reported brutality by his female field-training officer.   He also threatened numerous lives as he pledged allegiance to his heroes and causes of the political Left.  Dorner adamantly condemned American’s rights to keep and bear arms. 
Dorner is believed to have acted out on his deadly threats with the vengeance killing of three people that have nothing whatsoever to do with the any of the wrongs he complained about.  That staggers the imagination and seems to indicate Dorner is at war with society.
I’ve written several articles about Dorner and the investigations into his actions that have captivated my readers internationally.  My readers have commented with profanity, threats of violence and unprecedented nastiness.  I have deleted hundreds of comments accordingly. 
It seems that a significant percentage of the African-American community has began to worship Dorner as a folk hero.  I’ve not seen this since the 1960s when Angelia Davis, George Jackson and the Soledad Brothers and others were canonized as folk heroes after their deadly rampages. 
Dorner now has a price on his head that exceeds $1 million dollars.  The LAPD is suffering from the triple embarrassment of hiring Dorner, botching the internal investigation against him and now failing to capture him.  When you add to the mix cops opening fire on people driving similar truck to Dorner’s the fallout becomes unimaginable.
The LAPD is beyond desperate to see a quick end to this public relations disaster.  The fallout is part of the sickness that has divided this nation to epic proportions not see since the Civil War.  Should the killer of innocent people be elevated to a folk hero?  

 Note-I created the above  graphic after a retired cop friend of mine nicknamed Dorner, "RAMBRO".

Have seen facebook postings postulating that he is the victim of an unjust LAPD review board, and that he didn't conform to the "code of silence". In my opinion at least a couple of things may be true: 1) he lost a career opportunity and felt humiliated, that doesn't justify murder; 2) he seems to be an emotionally charged person, a hot head; and sadly 3) the cops ambushing early morning Paper boy Latinas, and ramming the truck of a surfer ain't helping the situation.

A 40 Caliber Nightmare Is Caught On Tape.

So you’re confident that that .40 caliber S&W service round will keep you safe. Maybe you’ll have second thoughts after you see this video. One hot summer night in 1994 Tempe and Mesa Arizona police were involved in a pursuit with this suspect who ran into a stranger’s apartment to hide after being shot TWICE in the chest. He was shirtless and you can see the blood pumping out of those two wounds. What’s really frightening is just how agile this fellow is as he struts to the ambulance. If he was not handcuffed and had a knife or a gun, ask yourself if he could still hurt you, your partner or a hostage? If your jurisdiction demands that officers carry either the 9MM or the .40 Caliber S&W it’s time to show this video to your bosses and lobby to have the .45 ACP round authorized. The switch may well reduce the screaming by self-appointed community activists about how many rounds police had to use on a suspect. The really talented and courageous video journalist, Karen Ke...

The origin of the feature film, COME FRIDAY…

CLick On the pictures to see full size versions. Long ago there was a young lady I had the hots for in a big way (Yes, I know that hots is not a word). She was pretty, incredibly bright, and had some real elegance about her. She had a love for children and basic kindness that you don’t often see in someone her age. I met her parents and could understand she came from a much more stable home than mine. I was raised by a single, welfare mom and suddenly found myself way out-classed. For whatever reasons things did not workout they way I had hoped. Sadly for me, we went on our separate ways. From time to time I’d run into this lady in various places where our job had taken us. Whenever this happened my heart would skip a beat or two. I left my hometown Chicago, and moved to Arizona where I founded my detective agency. As a private eye and soon a TV news producer too, my career took me to the highest profile criminal events in Arizona and throughout the country. There’s no question that ...

America Will See Its Worst Race Riot Yet This Summer

Star Prosecution Witness, Rachel Jeantel Sanford, FL —Yes, the George Zimmerman trial here has thousands of African-Americans getting ready for some serious bloodletting. I don’t want to make idle and dire predictions but this nation has never been so divided and racially sensitive.  Our African-American President took sides on this case at the very beginning.  That ratified a George Zimmerman guilty verdict in the minds of millions. There’s just one little problem, and that is the murder case should have never been filed.  It was filed purely for political reasons despite the fact that it was a simple justifiable homicide.  Zimmerman was on the block watch lookout program and followed a suspicious Trayvon Martin after he used an improper entrance to a gated community.  Zimmerman was acting as the eyes and ears of the Sanford Police Department. Martin did not like being followed and knew that he could easily beat up the out-of-shape...
