LAPD "Block Bingo" Prize At One Million!


That's right, with thousands of blocks and a one million dollar prize, who will be the lucky winner to pick the one where Dorner is hiding, and claim the one million dollar prize.

You can't win if you don't play, so call in and stake your claim to be the winning tip!

The last thing you want to do is turn this into a media circus. But then again, this is LA. However, if they wanted to guarantee a media shit storm, offering a million bucks certainly does precisely that, and almost certainly little else.

Even as incompetent as the LAPD apparently is, wouldn't be the best to calm people down, pull back the media, and let law enforcement do their jobs unimpeded by circus wagons and clowns?

They are doing exactly the opposite.

Clusterfuck!

I lived in LA area for a decade and left about five years ago.

I just hope they get the guy, and soon.

just shot everything that moves, eventually someone will win a million bucks. Maybe the Donald could start a live reality show where he could comment while watching people shoot things till finally someone hits the million dollar man.

It's all bull shit.

Where's the money coming from? The City? The LAPD? A private party?

I hate to say it - but this suggests to me that if somebody/some entity is willing to put up a million bucks to capture this guy - somebody really has something to hide.

Is this reward for his capture - dead or alive?
