he was shooting at the police on site. How is that allegedly? your hatred for the police biases you, and your logic is not there.
Actually my comment, "I think he fled into a different cabin" was in response to the post I quoted. I was referring to the events before he was surrounded by police.
I see two sides here but neither is entirely aware that they're horribly wrong about the other. There are no sides here. There were bad guys on both sides of this. I mean common, burning someone's property down, likely without knowing if there was someone else in it? SMH.
Yes my statement is a bit contradictory in retrospect. What I mean is there really are no sides, despite this he should have escaped crap and this oh people want this animal to get away oh noes crap. Most normal people don't want a psycho on the loose. I think many of us are just in disbelief of the whole thing.
The cop killer is wrong, man. ^ You DON'T take the law into your own hands... and shoot innocent people and their loved ones. Nothing will trump THAT argument.
No, I agree. I just don't think there is this huge side out cheering for him like many people seem to believe. I think it's a very small minority of people that are ill informed and getting people all worked up here.
This is a pretty random question, and just curious, but if you pass out / go unconscious from lack of oxygen and all the smoke in the air, would you "feel" anything as you then actually burned? Would you be brain dead already though?

Option was, in Dorner's mind, off the table when he wrote his manifesto. Dorner wasn't gonna let them take him in. At least, not without an admission that his firing was wrongful.
Giving up means not running into the cabin after firing on cops (and killing one) after already being on the run for killing cops and citizens days before, after sending a manifesto describing your intentions of killing and bringing "unconventional and asymmetric warfare." I mean, I accept the idea and actually know of bad cops, but this guy didn't leave many options on the table. I don't blame the cops here, and I know there is corruption, but this guy was making it close to impossible to apprehend him without severely risking your own life.
No it's not. The police can use deadly force when they are in danger of getting shot. They did not want to get near the cabin for fear of getting shot and killed. The safest way to take him out without more loss of life was to burn the cabin down. The cabin area looked to be far enough away from any trees. Plus it was snowing, and there was several inches of snow surrounding the cabin. http://mythbustersresults.com/episode85 Bullets thrown into an open fire can explode with lethal force. BUSTED The Mythbusters dropped a box of bullets with varying calibers directly into an open fire. While many of the bullets immediately discharged,, it appeared that none of the bullets could be lethal. Like the oven test, most of the damage was being dealt by the shell casings, which could not travel fast enough to be lethal. Wait him out and let him keep taking shots at police? They set the fire on purpose. http://www.reddit.com/r/DornerCase/..._san_bernardino_county_sheriff_system/c8e898z
