The Daily Mail has a good roundup of the last moments of Chris Dorner here. Additionally, it does appear the “intent” was to burn him out of the cabin from the sounds and directions of the SWAT team around the building. (video below) But is that really an issue?
Given the fact fugitive Dorner was firing at them, it does not appear they had any option other than to engage with force to stop being shot at. Hence the flaw in comparing this event to Waco when the FBI/ATF had the option to wait. Am I missing something?
[…] According to one report, furious SWAT officers shouted ‘burn that f****** house down!’ before the cabin went up in flames. (more…)
Sometimes we find articles, insight, or perspectives that directly align with, solidify and confirm previous deep vetted research and presentations. Such is the case with this:
“they’re inside the wire” is a military term for what happens when the enemy has crossed your defensive positions. It is also one of the most frightening of radio calls anyone engaged in combat can hear; For it immediately elevates the fight to live or die considerations. Such is the proclamation for this writing.
First the back story. In September of 2010, before we assembled our Last Refuge of patriots, I wrote an article -a warning of sorts- for constitutional patriots assembled at iOTW about the danger of Karl Rove:
Karl was president of the National College Republicans and has been entrenched with the concentric circles of the Decipticons since his high school/college days, trying to work his entire career into the middle where the sandwiches have no crust, waiters pour bottled water table side, and thin suave fellas place a linen napkin atop your lap for you.
He was a rough, modest kid outsider who wanted in. Desperately wanted in, so he sought approval at every corner. He mastered all things politic. He studied books, attended speeches, joined campaigns and would cross the country without sleep just to enter the room before the cigar smoke cleared and catch a glimpse or snippet of the Decepticon meeting.

Lots of folks are praising Lindsey Graham for his stance about Benghazi. However, it is prudent to remember he has been a face of manipulated optical opposition before. I don’t trust Graham, and this could well be just another decepticon angle to keep the patriots away from the gates as they look back yelling “we got this”.They don’t want you, me, or anyone, looking over the wall or beyond the gate.
WASHINGTON DC – Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) appeared on CBS News’ Face the Nation with Bob Schieffer on Sunday where he pledged to try to block the nominations of both Chuck Hagel and John Brennan in an effort to get more information about the 2012 attack on an American consulate in Benghazi out of President Barack Obama.
Graham told Schieffer that he thought it was unfortunate that Obama did not place a personal call to officials in the Libyan government on the evening of September 11, 2012, when an American consulate in Libya was overrun by militants. (more…)
“In God We Trust, In All Others We Question/Research”
(HatTip CajunKelly) Why is there a difference between the bullet hole (count and location) still shot photographs printed in the media, and the video at the scene? Clearly there is a visible difference. Look at the left side tailgate (example). Why would there be MORE bullet holes in the video, than in the printed/published photographs?
Ask yourself this question: why would they need to use “drones”? Think. They are being operated over U.S. airspace. There is no risk to the aviation asset being attacked, so why wouldn’t traditional search planes with FLIR be used? Know what the real agenda is here…. the real goal….. get you comfy (numb) with Drone Surveillance stories.
Also they just issued a $1,000,000 reward. CALIFORNIA – Police plan to use spy drones in the hunt for a Rambo-style ex-soldier and policeman who has murdered three people and vowed to kill again.
They believe burly, heavily-armed Christopher Dorner is holed-up in the wilderness of California’s snow-capped San Bernardino mountains 80 miles east of Los Angeles.
The burnt-out shell of his pick-up truck was discovered in the nearby resort of Big Bear, where residents and tourists have been warned to stay indoors as the search continues.
Yesterday, as a task force of 125 officers, some riding Snowcats in the rugged terrain, continued their search, it was revealed that Dorner has become the first human target for remotely-controlled airborne drones on US soil. (more…)
(ht WeaselZippers) The Department of Homeland Security’s civil rights watchdog has concluded that travelers along the nation’s borders may have their electronics seized and the contents of those devices examined for any reason whatsoever — all in the name of national security.
The DHS, which secures the nation’s border, in 2009 announced that it would conduct a “Civil Liberties Impact Assessment” of its suspicionless search-and-seizure policy pertaining to electronic devices “within 120 days.” More than three years later, the DHS office of Civil Rights and Civil Liberties published a two-page executive summary of its findings.

Looks like the two ladies involved in the first police shooting have already lawyered up. Both Emma Hernandez, 71, and her daughter, 47 year old Margie Carranza, have retained attorney Glen T. Jonas, and they’ll soon be filing charges against detectives from the LAPD Hollywood devision, who were reportedly on a protective detail for an LAPD captain and his family named in Dorner’s manifesto.
“There was no warning, there was no orders or no commands… just gunshots,” Jonas told reporters.
He said that police “had the goal of administering street justice” and “didn’t take the time to notice that these two older, small Latina women didn’t look like a large black man.”
“We trust that the LAPD will step up and do the right thing and acknowledge that what they did was unacceptable and we’ll deal with it,” Jonas said.” (Read more…)
As I write this post, Christopher Dorner, a former LAPD officer suspected of killing three people, is still at large. Yesterday, thousands of police offices throughout Southern California and neighboring states searched for the man who warned in a lengthy manifesto that he would target those in the LAPD who had wronged him. Police went so far as to place more than 40 “protection details” on alert for those threatened by Dorner in his manifesto, and also pulled officers from motorcycle duty, fearing they would make for easy targets.
“I will bring unconventional and asymmetrical warfare to those in LAPD uniform whether on or off duty,” said the manifesto. It also asserted: “Unfortunately, I will not be alive to see my name cleared. That’s what this is about, my name. A man is nothing without his name.”
But here is the full unedited version (links at bottom) where he adores MSNBC and CNN and Piers Morgan etc. He talks of Trayvon Martin and Hero Obama etc. If this was the opposite side of the political spectrum, if he were a conservative, this guy on the loose would be live 24/7 on every TV channel….. but, because the leftists are his heros the media is trying to bury it.

Regarding CF# 07-004281
I know most of you who personally know me are in disbelief to hear from media reports that I am suspected of committing such horrendous murders and have taken drastic and shocking actions in the last couple of days. You are saying to yourself that this is completely out of character of the man you knew who always wore a smile wherever he was seen. I know I will be villified by the LAPD and the media. Unfortunately, this is a necessary evil that I do not enjoy but must partake and complete for substantial change to occur within the LAPD and reclaim my name. (more…)
Gee, would have been nice to see the truth come out BEFORE the election. Alas, that wouldn’t suffice the media narrative.
WASHINGTON DC – Defense Secretary Leon Panetta testified this morning on Capitol Hill that President Barack Obama was absent the night four Americans were murdered in Benghazi on September 11, 2012:
Panetta said, though he did meet with Obama at a 5 o’clock prescheduled gathering, the president left operational details, including knowledge of what resources were available to help the Americans under siege, “up to us.” (more…)
