Christopher Jordan Dorner was a LAPD police officer who discovered that the LAPD is violent, out-of-control, and more of a danger to the public than the criminals they purport to protect the public from. So he decided to kill them. He started by murdering two innocent people who were related to a guy he didn't like.
In response, the LAPD has shot a bunch of innocent people. They haven't killed anyone yet, but that's because they are all terrible shots. But they may soon actually manage to kill the guilty guy.
Murdering an innocent basketball coach and her fiancee because you don't like her father makes you a bad guy. But shooting a bunch of innocent people in incompetent retaliation doesn't make you a good guy in response. Dorner is a bad guy. He is also correct in pointing out that the LAPD is, generally speaking, bad guys as well.
