I want to say I'm surprised by this but frankly, I am not:
The ex-cop accused of three revenge killings left behind a long manifesto outlining all of his grievances and observations.
That manifesto has given investigators some clues, but they still don’t know where is Christopher Dorner.
Law enforcement spent four hours searching his mom’s Orange County home. They took out 10 grocery bags filled with evidence.
Dorner lost his job with the Los Angeles Police Department in 2008. His manifesto vows revenge for that; and, surprisingly, thousands of people actually support him.
It’s hard to believe but there are those out there who sympathize with the man targeting police officers.
One Facebook page is proclaiming Dorner for president. “We propose electing a man who could no longer sit idly by and watch as malicious tyrants abuse the innocent.”
The description on “We Are All Chris Dorner” chillingly says, “Yes, this is war.”
Nearly 3,000 people like the page “I Support Christopher Jordan Dorner.”
CBS13 posted a simple question: Why? Why support a man wanted for at least three killings and the author of a murderous manifesto promising to target cops?
One sympathizer wrote us, “Because something needs to be done about the long known corruption of not only the LAPD, but several agencies.”
Another comment read, “He is god for now and I support him and this page.”
“Most people would be shocked and appalled that people would support this,” said Sid Martinez, assistant professor of sociology at Sacramento State.
The professor goes on to state that he is not surprised by the support being given Dorner.
Neither am I.
Into the vacuum of society's Godlessness, evil burgeons.
Little by little, as we ignore the things of God, as we give Him second shrift, as our hearts are calloused by the constant rubbing up against all that is absent of His presence, this sort of thing is the inevitable result.
To be surprised by any of this is to be ignorant of the seductive ways of the prince of this world.
What can and will we do about it?
What can and will I do about it?
What can and will you do abou it?
