Sniper Shoots Three in Rural Southern California Before Being Shot Dead
Sniper Shoots Three in Rural Southern California Before Being Shot Dead
The Associated Press
Published: Jun 12, 2004

IRVINE, Calif. (AP) - A camouflaged sniper opened fire Saturday at a rural Southern California recycling center, wounding a worker and a deputy, then fled before being killed hours later in a shootout with deputies who had spotted him from a helicopter.
The helicopter pilot was wounded in the leg, but all three victims were expected to survive, Orange County sheriff's spokesman Jim Amormino said.

The sniper, wearing green camouflage and black face paint, began firing at employees at the Baker Canyon Green Recycling Center about 11:10 a.m., Amormino said.

One recycling worker was shot in the arm and a responding deputy was shot twice, once in the arm and once in the shoulder, Amormino said. The shooting victims were taken to a hospital, but their conditions were not immediately available.

1. sniper was probably a protestwarrior.com freak
I was checking out their forums after the rally SF last
Sat. the protestwarriors showed up so it peaked my
curiousity .

you got to watch their video trailer and
on the forums a poster posted a messege
with a picture in it . The picture was the
back of a T-Shirt with an image of a sniper
rifle and the words "when all else fails vote
from the rooftops" They are some sick puppies
there at that site .

2. vote for what? no recycling? this guy must have worked there before or
something. never heard of a disgruntled recycler before.

one more thing... being disgruntled... is that the opposite of being gruntled?

5. geezbus that's an especially screwed up site
I look forward to them getting busted for some weapons violations and other consequences, but quick. Hopefully before anybody gets killed. Add these poseur dipshits to a big contentious protest with armed cops--a new recipe for disaster, like we need one.

Here's your tee:

6. There's a Photo of Me On their Site, labeled "The Epicenter of the Left"
I don't know how I could possibly live up to that.
But I grabbed the picture to use as my avatar here anyway.

3. This is a hugh blow for the wing-nuts
They always thought their "I'm so cool" camouflage outfits would make them invisible when the time came to kill a "librul". I guess that idea was a "LOSER". Not to mention their best friends, "the deputies" ignored the "support your local police" bumper sticker and killed him anyway. Reality anyone.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
