Regarding Chrisopher Dorner:
My familiarity with administrative hearings
and the pinheads who run them leads me to believe on first glance that
Dorner may have been wrongfully terminated, solely from the perspective
of supposedly false statements about another officer...

I read some of his manifesto. It sounds
as if they may have shafted him, just from the perspective of what they
state that he got fired for. But on the other hand most people wronged,
especially cops, don't go on shooting rampages.

I
wonder if he would have been treated better by the LAPD, if he
could have then been helped in other ways with counseling, and stayed
on. Then the people Dorner killed would still be alive? It's a worthy
thought experiment to conduct, especially for people who run
administrative hearings and who run police departments...
So
far the guy is confirmed to have killed four people. So, in his case
it's good that he's dead. But everyone should realize the part they may
play in the course of actions of someone who is unstable enough to do
such things. They need to be treated with more care, and not sent to the
wolves, where they can act out in negative ways. They should be a.)
treated fairly, and b.) guided toward necessary mental health
counseling. So while Dorner is responsible for his actions, and it's good that he's dead, there is simultaneously other people who're responsible for tipping a person with a propensity for being unstable over the edge via an apparently unfairly harsh & retributive environment (at the LAPD).
