I can't give them another point for taking out Dorner. 10,000 cops using all the technology the State has available doesn't deserve credit for finally taking out the 1 man it's been hunting for a week.

I'm sure that nothing will come of that but it shows that he's actually made an effect against the regime, as they don't usually backpedal so publicly.<br /><br />What really interests me personally is the effect that a single person can have on an organization as large as the LAPD.
