Manhunt For Ex-Police Officer Goes On Amid Southern California Mountain Snowstorm

Law enforcement officers working in falling snow searched a Southern California mountain Friday for the former Los Angeles police officer accused of carrying out a killing spree??because he felt he was unfairly fired from his job.

"We're going to continue searching until either we discover that he left the mountain or we find him, one of the two," San Bernardino County Sheriff John McMahon said at a midmorning news conference. ??

More than 100 officers from various agencies were searching for Christopher Dorner in the Big Bear Lake region of the San Bernardino Mountains east of Los Angeles.

SWAT teams were driven up snowbound roads on Snowcat tractors and armored personnel carriers equipped with snow chains, he said, but helicopters with heat-sensing technology were grounded because of the storm.

And I half-believe his tale myself, though he clearly has mental issues.

You're hopeless, so I am writing for the benefit of anyone who happens upon one of your posts:

Dorner is an ex-cop who MURDERED three innocent people IN COLD BLOOD with a GUN.

(The facts contained in that sentence would ordinarily spawn 50 OPs in GD, but in Dorner's case they
haven't, and although I suspect I know why, I won't go there.)

Then Dorner RAN and HID, and his HIDING NOW, and he clearly has no problem MURDERING anyone
who gets in his way, or anyone he thinks he NEEDS to kill to make whatever point he's trying to make.
In the meanwhile people are IN TERROR, worried that the crazed Dorner might kill THEM just for being in
the wrong place at the wrong time.

ANYTHING ELSE IS NOT RELEVANT.

Issues from his childhood, including racially motivated ones? Not relevant; don't justify MASS MURDER.

Issues with the military? Not relevant; don't justify MASS MURDER.

Issues with the LAPD? Not relevant; don't justify MASS MURDER.

Mommy/Daddy Issues? Not relevant; don't justify MASS MURDER.

The story about the innocent women who were shot yesterday? Not relevant; don't justify Dorner.

If you "just want to hear what he has to say," then read his manifesto. Read the court docs referenced elsewhere.
If he's such a rolodex of information that will shed new light on a police force most people ALREADY KNEW WAS CORRUPT,
then he could have bought a disposable cellphone or two and made his case WITHOUT MURDERING THREE PEOPLE.
Nothing he "has to say" was worth killing three people over, period, paragraph.

He's chosen his path, and in fact he planned it carefully and boasted about his abilities. If he doesn't turn himself in to face
multiple capital murder trials, he gets what he has coming to him.
