They were caught by a combination of police work and concerned citizens.

The police started recording license plates driving away from shootings and got some repeat business. They traced those, and narrowed it down to a particular car and license. A trucker spotted their car and blocked it in, and blocked them in until the police arrived.

.50 caliber rifle, which shoots five-inch long bullets

I wish I had gone into journalism ... its so easy ... you don't have to know a damn thing at all ...

[Vermont Lt]

Yeah, but those guys did not look lice Ice Cube.

[Chode]

missile launcher, yeah, right...

Heres a link LAPD-USN

This reminds me of a movie where a green beret escapes to the mountains.

Had the same thoughts when I saw the sheriff holding a press conference this afternoon in the snow,,,started looking for the colonel to walk up and save the day,

This reminds me of a movie where a green beret escapes to the mountains.

It reminds me in a lot of movies, which is why I instructed my secretary this afternoon to contact Harrison Ford to see if he'd be interested.

[andyk]

Haha, Brian Dennehy?

[CodeToad]

Drilla hole in that bullet and slip a Bic pen refill and use it to write with. It freaks people out.

>>I think all Californians should turn in their weapons because that will help them be safe from Christopher Dorner.

Dorner should register his .50 cal.<<

Good thinking! They can arrest him when he comes in to register his weapon. Elegant.

I don’t know. There is a nagging thought in the back of my mind. It keeps saying, “Something is not adding up”.
I do not have any one thing in mind. Just ‘something’.

I wouldn’t dare tell you which former police chief Wolf Blitzer had on yesterday on CNN to get some “advice” of this guy.

[Inyo-Mono]

Wow a five inch bullet! Bet that could go through a piece of plywood.

[Uncle Chip]

Well they should offer him a $100 gift card for Walmarts to turn in that missile launcher. That should do it.

Once, about a year back, I sat inside a B-17 and listened to the pouring rain outside hammering on the thin skin of the airframe...I began to feel a profound sadness knowing that young aircrews had only that soda can skin between them and 30mm German cannon fire...

“Something is not adding up”.

Louie, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful conspiracy theory.

[2ndDivisionVet]

You’re $#*++ing me!

I wish these so called journalist would get their terminology correct.

Journalists write for their audience and most people in America aren't firearms enthusiasts. Therefore, guns shoot bullets, clips hold bullets, cartridges contain ink and magazines are something you read.

I don’t know. There is a nagging thought in the back of my mind. It keeps saying, “Something is not adding up”. I do not have any one thing in mind. Just ‘something’.

Consider that it appears that the LAPD has orders to shoot to kill regardless of collateral damage, and, as mentioned on another thread, that it appears that any hostage will be a primary target as well.

... and Trigger is a horse.
