Chris Dorner buys 100s of personal firearms leading up to his rampage. Immediately before he becomes legend, he just goes around tossing guns in bushes and trashcans all over LA knowing that after he dies or is captured (there was never a real chance they'd take him alive even he knew that) those guns will find their way to being used for all kinds of stuff forcing the media to periodically bring him up again and address why he is a relevant media figure.
Is this true? I dunno. Many people are saying it, folks
Unless I am misremembering he actually did leave shit laying around all over LA. I don't think he had that in mind, more they were for him to use over the course of his rampage. I remember there being CCTV footage back then of him throwing a bag of kit and guns into a dumpster
I'm actively resisting seeing him as the closest to a real life The Punisher that perhaps we'll ever have.
Disillusioned ex-military, ex-cop, jacked, intelligent and able to plan an extended one-man war against police. Of course we know the outcome (or do we? X files music), but in real life Frank Castle would end the same way.
But yeah I think you're right. I also remember something like that, although there has been a lot of mythologizing of Dorner and what he did after his (potential) death.
Perhaps I'm also doing that. Oh well, it's kinda fun and funny. It definitely upsets the worst hogs, so, fuck it.
Much like the Black Blade of Doom, his spirit lives on in the gun
His gun is like a Lantern Corps ring. It found another.
It’s like the ending scene in Dark knight rises when Lucious finds out Batman didn’t die
Investigator 🐖: i should just leave this in evidence
Investigator 🐷: but there’s a serial number right here, AO8560317
Investigator 🐖: what’s the ID registered with that number?
Investigator 🐷: Chris Dorner?
This pdf has his manifesto with footnotes that explain everything and a lot of good research into the stuff that led up to it.
It's a good read, it changed my opinion of Dorner. I still fully approve of his later actions, but his motivations were basically all personal.
Maybe there ought to be an investigation if the LAPD runs guns to gangs across the border.
was this an ornamental gun? did he know it was charged with the cursed energy of Dorner's ghost? how did the police not have the gun in their possession?
