You idiots were calling Obamacare tyranny. I guess if he was shooting Senators and Congressmen who voted for it,
THEN you'd be cheering him on.
He felt the government had "treaded" on him. Hmmmm. Isnt there a big national group that declares "Dont Tread on Me"???
We tell people that the anti-government frenzy is dangerous. And it is.
Why was he fired? Doesn't L.A. have a union?
I have read the entirety of Christopher Dorner's "Uncensored Manifesto." I don't like being told by the media or anyone else what to think. Apparently this guy should have lived by the same creed, and perhaps he wouldn't have gone around killing people. But then again, he's not a dull bulb, nor is he evil or a shit as some here are saying, and he is correct, the only thing you have is your name, and once they take that away, you are doomed.
On the one hand, he has a lot of integrity, honor, simplicity, and character. Unfortunately, he has also been conditioned and corrupted by the main stream culture. This has twisted his mind so there is a certain amount of cognitive dissonance going on. How one can reason that military grade weapons should not be in the hands of civilians and then be in possession of them to use them as a last resort "
when you take everything from him especially his NAME!!!"
He was fired for being a whistle blower, for crossing the "blue line." The LAPD is infamous among all PD's for having no ethics or morality. It is as corrupt as a Sicilian bookie.

If you think things have changed, you are fooling yourself.
In 8/07 I reported an officer (Ofcr. Teresa Evans/now a Sergeant), for kicking a suspect (excessive force) during a Use of Force while I was assigned as a patrol officer at LAPDs Harbor Division. While cuffing the suspect, (Christopher Gettler), Evans kicked the suspect twice in the chest and once in the face. The kick to the face left a visible injury on the left cheek below the eye. Unfortunately after reporting it to supervisors and investigated by PSB (internal affairs investigator Det. Villanueva/Gallegos), nothing was done. I had broken their supposed Blue Line. Unfortunately, Its not JUST US, its JUSTICE!!! In fact, 10 months later on 6/25/08, after already successfully completing probation, acquiring a basic Post Certificate, and Intermediate Post Certificate, I was relieved of duty by the LAPD while assigned to patrol at Southwest division. It is clear as day that the department retaliated toward me for reporting Evans for kicking Mr. Christopher Gettler. The department stated that I had lied and made up the report that Evans had kicked the suspect. I later went to a Board of Rights (department hearing for decision of continued employment) from 10/08 to 1/09. During this BOR hearing a video was played for the BOR panel where Christopher Gettler stated that he was indeed kicked by Officer Evans (video sent to multiple news agencies). In addition to Christopher Gettler stating he was kicked, his father Richard Gettler, also stated that his son had stated he was kicked by an officer when he was arrested after being released from custody. This was all presented for the department at the BOR hearing. They still found me guilty and terminated me. What they didnt mention was that the BOR panel made up of Capt. Phil Tingirides, Capt. Justin Eisenberg, and City Attorney Martella had a signigicant problem from the time the board was assembled. Capt. Phil Tingirides was a personal friend of Teresa Evans from when he was her supervisor at Harbor station. That is a clear conflict of interest and I made my argument for his removal early and was denied. The advocate for the LAPD BOR was Sgt. Anderson. Anderson also had a conflict of interest as she was Evans friend and former partner from Harbor division where they both worked patrol together. I made my argument for her removal when I discovered her relation to Evans and it was denied.
. . . . and later. . .
I have exhausted all available means at obtaining my name back. I have attempted all legal court efforts within appeals at the Superior Courts and California Appellate courts. This is my last resort. The LAPD has suppressed the truth and it has now lead to deadly consequences. The LAPDs actions have cost me my law enforcement career that began on 2/7/05 and ended on 1/2/09. They cost me my Naval career which started on 4/02 and ends on 2/13. I had a TS/SCI clearance(Top Secret Sensitive Compartmentalized Information clearance) up until shortly after my termination with LAPD. This is the highest clearance a service member can attain other than a Yankee White TS/SCI which is only granted for those working with and around the President/Vice President of the United States. I lost my position as a Commanding Officer of a Naval Security Forces reserve unit at NAS Fallon because of the LAPD. Ive lost a relationship with my mother and sister because of the LAPD. Ive lost a relationship with close friends because of the LAPD. In essence, Ive lost everything because the LAPD took my name and new I was INNOCENT!!! Capt Phil Tingirides, Justin Eisenberg, Martella, Randy Quan, and Sgt. Anderson all new I was innocent but decided to terminate me so they could continue Ofcr. Teresa Evans career. I know about the meeting between all of you where Evans attorney, Rico, confessed that she kicked Christopher Gettler (excessive force). Your day has come.
There are some on this forum that believe the LAPD has cleaned up it's act since the days of the Rodney King riots, or the OJ Simpson trial. It hasn't. It has only gotten worse. The officers that were involved in that beating, as we are told in Christopher Dorner's "Uncensored Manifesto," have only been promoted.
He was at his wits end about how to get his "good name" and his life back. I don't know how bad things were, and I don't know if in the past twenty years the situation has deteriorated even worse. I imagine it probably has. Instead of the CIA just running drugs to the poor from Mexico, now they are running drugs in from Afganistan. On top of that, they are now running guns into Mexico to help the whole scheme run smoother.
What I find odd about this fellows Manifesto, is that he is very much in support of average citizens not having the right to own military equipment, yet his own personal war against tyranny is made possible by that right. It seems rather hypocritical.
I don't think the time to take up arms has come yet. I really do think he has been pushed up against a wall and really had no where else to turn. I did read the WHOLE "Uncensored Manifesto." Christopher Dorner is neither sick, nor twisted, nor deranged. He is just tired of the hatred, the selfishness, and the corruption. He is tired of honor not meaning anything anymore. He is tired of a good days work not being rewarded. He is tired of a society paying lips service to "civil rights" and "civil liberties" for middle class and upper class folks, but when it comes to the poor, homeless, vagrants, idle youth on the street, they are treated as trash with no rights at all.
I find there is a sort of irony in his tirade against military grade arms, but then when he blows the whistle on the abuse of his fellow officers, time and again, and they kick him out of their club, he raises arms to defend the poor and down trodden with those self same arms. What is he, clueless? This is what the founders intended.
