However, LAPD has won questionable fame worldwide for racism and racism-related misconduct by police forces. Dorner claimed that he got fired in I think 2007 due to filing in a wrong accusation regarding a colleague who should have mistreated a mentally retarded prisoner. Yesterday I fetched up that that case has been reopened by investigators. Leaves two questions: will such an examination against a police officer in a department like LA have a fair chance to go unhindered, and second: what if they find that Dorner's claim about what happened in 2007 - were correct? It would not excuse his killing spree. But it would explain some things, and open some unwelcomed perspectives.

There must be a reason why he has ticked out so dramatically - even if it would be a mental disease or underlaying psychosis.

Well, you just tried to excuse it...

I don't know of a person that can go through life and not be wronged, I know I have. Should I go on a murder spree. Our culture is creating a deadly mindset always trying to excuse murderers.
