The following, a tip received by DKBP: Hey, I live in Malibu and saw the MISSILE!!! I am USAF vet was stationed at Vandenberg AFB, a missile base, and have seen quite a few launches… THIS WAS A MISSILE!!! and if it wasn’t, then why on 11/10/10, 9:50am, did I take the attached picture of 2 F-22 raptor fighter jets circling LA???? These are top of the line fighter jets and I have NEVER seen one around here….. Seeing a lot more military helicopters flying past too….
The mystery of the missile over California solved? According to various sources, the ‘missile’ was a jet contrail. Missing from the discussion, the eyewitness account from the guy who shot the video, KCBS photographer Gil Leyvas. Gil Leyvas: ‘The video speaks for itself. It’s definitely some object. It’s not a flock of birds or a jetliner. There was a large plume at the horizon and it kind of grew and got thinner, and it was spiraling in nature and as I zoomed into the point of it, you could see what appeared to be whatever it was, spinning in a trajectory like maybe a bullet or football.’

Supposing in a completely hypothetical, maybe it's possible but probably not, sense and this is a missile, where does this put us? Or am I in the wrong thread?
It also surprises me that so many at ATS do not understand or recognize perspective or what real rocket launches act like

How can anyone in their right mind try to convince anyone that this was an airplane? I guess if they convinced people once that it was an airplane than they figure they can do it again...
