Especially, considering his claims are in the face of a lot of PROVEN GOOD the LAPD has done. Every cop is not calling dead people their new car or letting people die because it's "the paramedics job". That's a load of shit right there.
A personal friend of mine has been awarded the Medal of Valor TWICE. He's the 4th person in LAPD history to have received that. It's a medal that is normally awarded posthumously. In his case he saved some lives both times at great peril to himself.
Your arguments are slanted because you have a dog in the fight.
The fact is, he reported his feminist boss who was kicking a schizophrenic person in the head. Medical records of the victim, and his father's account, matched what the officer reported. He was then conspired against by his peers because he took the side of integrity instead of the "Blue Line."
Killing people may not be the answer, but they took away his life and his dreams. He's spent his entire life working to be in law enforcement, and an act of integrity in reporting police brutality took that all away. He grew up believing the fable of the US justice system, and after four years of appeals he's now realized what the system really is.
And for those of you who suggest he should've written a book, keep dreaming. Who would've bought it? Who would've ever heard of it? Check Amazon, there are plenty of books written by disgruntled cops. The fact is, his manifesto indicates he is more articulate and intelligent than 99% of other cops, and it's unfortunate that going on a killing spree is the avenue he needs to get his message across.
My argument is that people should be afforded due process and that a lot of questions should be asked before being willing to just take a killer's word and assume the people he killed/wants to kill, deserved it.
The guy was a cop for 3 years. That's not shit. His military "career" is a joke.
Go get another fucking job.
It disgusts me that you're trying to justify it.
If the guy was the great cop he makes himself out to be he wouldn't have had so many problems.
He says himself that he's had encounters his whole life by whatever he decides is "unjust".
This "my name" bullshit is just about another self righteous asshole taking lives because he's hurting he feels someone else must pay.
This guys morality is inconsistent with what he says he stands for.
