LAS VEGAS, NV: In the days after his lethal rebellion and violent death, Christopher Dorner has become many things to many different people: a one-man Alamo hero who died fighting the police state; a crazy black man who started murdering cops because that's what crazy black men do; or a symbol of government oppression and the militarization of America's police forces. For some conspiracy theorists, Dorner even became a Manchurian candidate in an elaborate Big Brother plot to sow chaos and fear, so that Government Marxists could fill America's skies with armed drones, assassinating gun-owners and freedom-lovers at will.
