The difference between the Dorner incident and Waco is the initiation of the fighting. In Waco the gubment launched an unprovoked attack on the Waco compound based upon a warrant illegally obtained through false evidence and assumptions.

The Dorner incident is an LEO response to attack from a criminal bent on murder/revenge and known kidnapping etc.

Whether fire is a valid response is of academic interest. But it was a response to criminal activity that had to be stopped. The more delay taken to capture or kill Dorner put the LE community and civilians at risk.

For my money I think they did the right thing.
