LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Thousands of police officers throughout Southern California and Nevada hunted Thursday for a former Los Angeles officer who was angry over his firing and began a deadly shooting rampage that he warned in an online posting would target those on the force who wronged him, authorities said.
Disgruntled ex-LAPD officer writes a manifesto detailing how (allegedly) the LAPD is corrupt. He then starts a war with LAPD. He's rather specific with the (alleged) corruption details in his manifesto.

Apparently, the LAPD has already shot up at least two vehicles "matching the description" of the ex-cop's vehicle. The LAPD is randomly shooting up suspected vehicles (and people!)? What?

Los Angeles officers guarding a "target" named in the posting shot and wounded multiple people in Torrance who were in a pickup but were not involved, authorities said. The extent of their injuries was not released. It's not clear if the target is a person or a location.

The Daily Breeze in Torrance also reports (http://urlhasbeenblocked/YWhBLi ) that there was another police shooting nearby involving another pickup truck, but the driver wasn't hurt.
Here's the manifesto:

If I had a brother who was a police officer, he would look a lot like Chris Dorner.

So, apparently homeboy is baricaded in the woods and is probably not going to come out alive because he's pissed off the LAPD was a bunch of racists or whatever his left-wing manifesto says. The question now becomes.....

1) Do we agree that the guy is a whack-job
or
2) Get Senator Feinstein to introduce improved gun control measures that prevent highly trained police officers from obtaining and owning firearms post-retirement/separation.

Dorner wouldn't be stuck in this predicament if his rice-burner Nissan hadn't broken an axle and left him stranded without transportation in rough terrain.

Look for this story line in a future Chevrolet Truck commercial.

Per CNN, a SWAT team has just entered the cabin. Smoke shown billowing from the cabin.

Why not just burn the cabin down and let this subhuman piece of shit die?

Really, how many more LEO families are going to have to bury their loved ones so that we can give him a trial and innocence until proven guilty?

Cabin is on fire... There is some speculation that he may have gotten away.

But it will be interesting to see how the media balances the live coverage of this event with the coverage of the State of the Union speech in a little while.

Reality vs Fiction. Which will win?

The crew up there seems pretty calm and they're just letting the fire burn. I think they're confident that Dorner was in the fire and they'll find his body burned.
