Police become the Judge, Jury and Executioner and burned down Dorner's cabin.

The Constitution was burned long ago.

The quote by Bush which called the constitution "just a piece of paper" or something like that makes me laugh.

Well, George, if it's just a piece of paper, then I guess you have no right to tell everyone else what they can and can't do, since your right to govern is based on what the constitution says.

Of course I do agree with Bush on this point.   It is indeed just a piece of paper that in no way binds 300 million people to anything.  I don't see many signatures on it...

So which one of you has nuts as big as your mouth? Would you go in the cabin? This is not a movie, the doorman is likely to die and if Dorner has explosives then the whole entry team goes.
Dorner decided to die. He knew how this story was going to end. Good riddens scumbag.

It is not about the cops being cowards, it is about the fact that burning suspects alive without due process is illegal. Clearly Dorner knew this would be a probable outcome, but in a way they kind of gave him what he wanted. They martyred him.
