WTF - Missile shot yesterday off LA?

Mysterious missile lights up the sky over the Pacific - San Diego, California News Station - KFMB Channel 8 - cbs8.com

That is not MasterBlasters TV experiment but a Big Mutha.



Go watch the video linked above.

They know, with all the satellites we have, every inch of the earth is under constant observation. Someone is trying to craft a story or explain a mistake, but trust me, they know the source.

They'll know where it launched from and where it went and it will certainly be interesting to hear (real truth or not is a different story)

That would be one phenomenally stupid stunt but I would not put it past them. They have been beating their chest significantly lately on matters naval and with Pacific Rim nations (which we are one).

'Course the next order of effect is when it does get determined who/what/where it is conceivable that others may be emboldened by our lack of clear response. The question is does the Pentagon know and just ain't saying.

That wasn't a small one for sure. Not something you can build in your garage either. Has to be government issue, but whose? I'd say ours just because the DoD didn't go bat%$%$%$%$ crazy and scramble everything.

Maybe a shuttle bus from south of the boarder that was smuggling in some illegal toner cartridges that "accidentally" got activated?

Most likely contrail. It looks like it is going up and away when reality is coming towards you albeit 30K feet up. Reflections from sun...

We'll see.

You can call me Stupid, I've never seen a contrail like that, it's too dense to be a contrail it looks like a solid fuel propelled something.


The truth is out there.
