Personally, I don't see dude as a hero at all.In his crusade, all he killed were people with no involvement with his issue
.A good friend of mine knows one of the victims as says he is a good dude.That said,its crazy how its accepted for Police to actively go on a manhunt to kill.The fact that they just shot up innocent people in Pickups show that they were making no attempt to capture him.Then this burning him alive thing makes them out to be more of a lynch mob than an actual Police agency.In a cabin in the middle of uninhabited Big Bear,they could have kept their distance,kept throwing gas, or just waited him out.He had no water or electricity.A human can only last a few days max with no water,food or sleep.There are dozens of options other than setting the cabin on Fire.
