How about you learn to read or at least have some grain of truth in your title. Amare NEVER said he supported the guy. Since when is his "A must read" comment translated into Amare supports cop killer. You sound like Steve Vescey, just making stuff up.

Amare said the "manifesto" was a must read. One could take that to mean....it could be interesting how "ignorant" the guys is. Also, just because a guy kills someone doesn't mean the things they wright are without merit.

Your way of thinking says: If you kill someone, the entire body of your life work becomes forgotten and should be deleted from all forms of media?

the fact that you can't even have an unrelated thread without some tool here bringing him up make me think that rational minds are few and far between. Bunch of emotionally weak, angst riddled people. I mean, how many times can you argue the same shyt

NY Knicks star Amar'e Stoudemire touts Christopher Dorner's crazed manifesto as 'must-read' on Twitter
In his deranged decree, Dorner railed against corruption in the LAPD and portrayed himself as a victim of institutional racism, fired for crossing the thin blue line to report a sergeant for brutality.

By Erik Ortiz / NEW YORK DAILY NEWS

Knicks star Amar’e Stoudemire is touting the crazed manifesto of ex-cop-turned-cop-killer Christopher Dorner as “a must read.”

The hoopster took to Twitter Sunday to reveal his interest was piqued by the 20-page rant Dorner left on his Facebook page, in which he declared war on the Los Angeles Police Department.

“Interesting. This is a must read!!” Stoudemire tweeted and linked to the manifesto Dorner addressed “to America.”

In his deranged decree, Dorner railed against corruption in the LAPD and portrayed himself as a victim of institutional racism, fired for crossing the thin blue line to report a sergeant for brutality.

LAPD officials found Dorner’s charges against the sergeant were bogus, but the case was reopened during the hunt for Dorner.

Stoudemire did not elaborate on his tweet. But many of the hoopster’s nearly 806,000 Twitter followers were taken aback by his reading recommendation.

“Really?! A murderer’s hateful manifesto is worth reading?” wrote one follower.
Dorner shot himself to death Tuesday in a burning mountain cabin near Big Bear, Calif., after cops tracked him down and surrounded the hideout.

During his 10-day Southern California reign of terror, Dorner killed two police officers and the daughter and future son-in-law of a former LIN BADAPD captain.

As the tweet flap bubbled, an online shoot-’em-up video game surfaced Sunday putting gamers in the cop-killer’s shoes.

The game — “Chris Dorner’s Last Stand: A True American Hero” — was posted on the controversy-courting online community called 4chan.

The amateurish game re-creates and exaggerates Dorner’s final hours in a shootout with police and is reminiscent of the popular 1990s computer game “Doom.” The objective is to kill as many cops as possible.

In “Last Stand,” Dorner’s cabin hideout is decorated with a picture of actor Charlie Sheen, who in real life made a video asking Dorner to surrender.

Ex-California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger also appears as a “Terminator”-type enemy.

During the virtual gun battles, gamers replenish Dorner’s health by eating fried chicken — a shamelessly racist feature. All the cops in the game are white.

"'Really?! A murderer’s hateful manifesto is worth reading?' wrote one follower."

So it's better to describe something as hateful without having read it oneself? That's mighty ignorant. The sad reality is that in the realm of social media, and everywhere else, you don't have to be informed to have an opinion.

I myself haven't read it, but I certainly wouldn't comment on the value of it's content without taking the time out to do so. Certainly Amar'e hasn't suggested anything wrong here. He just said it's interesting and a must read. You don't have to agree with the contents to challenge oneself intellectually. In America, most people have read the communist manifesto but it doesn't make us communists.

This article could have been dedicated to actual news.

The title of this thread is also very misleading and untruthful.

pretty sure it is (the article). Don't see anywhere where he states therein that he supports Donner.

No offense, but if you're making a reading list with recommendations from a high school graduate whose 4-syllable vocabulary is limited to 'phenomenal,' that's on you.

No offense, but what makes you so qualified to assess someone's intelligence? Clearly you're basing that statement on a stereotype and his interviews regarding basketball and not actually knowing the guy.
I personally know plenty of idiots who have multiple college degrees too.

No, it's not. Amar'e is an exceptional basketball player; doesn't make him qualified to make intelligent suggestions on reading material. No one should think it does. I like watching excellent athletes play basketball, but Tyson Chandler does not make me want to wear capri pants, Carmelo does not make me want to wear Jordan brand, Jason Kidd does not give me examples of how to treat my wife, JR Smith does not teach me how to drive.

I think the better question is why would anyone care what Amar'e thinks is worth reading.

You can link to Dormer's message from the article. I read some of it. It is a long message. The part that I read was not hateful but more stating his case. I agree that Amare did nothing wrong here.

The question is how do you KNOW that he is not qualified? You don't know him personally.
There are 5000 janitors with PhDs in this country. Would their opinion only count if it were based on their professional knowledge of cleaning products?. Your point is simply invalid.

No, the question is why would you think he is qualified. If you don't know him personally, why would you care what he thinks you should read? Here's some must-read material recommended from a random Internet poster:

Op made this thread, and walked out on it himself.

Nowhere does it state he supports Dorner, nowhere.

Enjoy.


I never said he was qualified.
I never said his suggestion was intelligent.
I don't feel compelled to read the manifesto at this moment.
You assumed that.

YOU were the one who suggested he wasn't intelligent because he's only got a high school education and says phenomenal a lot. I was pointing out the fact that you have no way of assessing that information. You're just assuming as much based on an athlete stereotype. That's what I took issue with.

This is what Amare could have been saying , but wanted you to look into it yourselves.


I have as many of you all have following the Christoper Dorner case or is it propaganda?

To this date no one has offered ANY tangible proof he did anything.

The supposed manifesto that has been offered as proof was on a facebook page created a mere week or so before this whole case started.

Yet his facebook page with MANY friends has no manifesto? why?

The people he was accused of killing, where is the proof he killed them?

Was there a trial I missed?

The media has been spinning this since it broke, why?

Why the huge reward?

Why were police shooting at suspects first , then identifying? Shooting several innocents!

http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-504083_162-57568191-504083/christopher-dorner-manhunt-police-reportedly-shoot-two-people-in-hunt-for-suspected-killer-ex-cop/

http://newsone.com/2204122/dorner-signs/

The media has condemned him without any PROOF of crime committed, where is it?

Do we have to wait a weeks or so for them to manufacture the proof?

Why did this happen now years after he was fired?

I want to know what really happened.

Why were orders given to use white phosphorus on the cabin?

They really wanted it to burn HOT, why?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cNk-bV40XMc&feature=youtu.be

Was it really him in the cabin or someone else?

I was watching, I never SAW Dorner at any time, doing any of these things that supposed to had happen(Police car video), never even saw a glimpse of him IN that cabin, and etc.

Same with the Sandy Hook thing. Never saw the dude going into the school, or his body even from a distance.

It's really as if we who are watching are supposed to believe what is being reported as being what happened. And the Main Stream Media, police, and whoever else seem astonished that we don't accept what they say at face value.

They are the idiots, not we who question their unbelievable SCRIPTS.
