Default Mysterious Missile Shot Into the Air?

Any of you guys in Socal see the missile shoot off? No one is claiming it... Obviously it came from a submarine but the question is where the f**k did it land? haha Dam government always keeping secrets for the public

So after watching the video, they say it wasn't the navy, or any military base nearby. Does that mean it came from an enemy sub?

A missile that makes that big of a trail for that long is probably a sub carried ballistic missile. Ship based cruise missiles don't look like that. There is a live fire range near there so its not impossible for it to be a test. Of course they aren't going to say that though.

My speculation is that it's a flex of power by us, maybe to show N Korea what's up. Of course in this day and age of politically correctness the government is going to deny it.

I think the shows of force tend to happen on the S Korea coast, not LA and NY, - at least that's what my friends in the Marines have been telling me. http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news...-1225896741319

Im sure it was just a weather balloon.

It has already been established that it was a solid fuel rocket. No plane made that trail or intense visible flame. Someone is full of **** and that starts with the news people who have ZERO ******* idea what the hell anything is until some official spouts whatever lie he wants them to spread around.

It's called spin, and it happens all the time. It was likely a military exercise.

i saw something similar 11+ years ago. looked exactly the same with the sunset (i've heard the setting sun gives that massive trail optical illusion). after a few minutes, you could see the wind alter the trail so you knew it was some kind of jet or rocket.
