'Don't Shoot! I'm NOT DORNER!!' Bumper Stickers Hit eBay
If you're ready for some gallows humor about this whole Christopher Dorner situation, head on over to eBay.
There you'll find a bumper sticker that reads "Don't Shoot! I'm NOT DORNER!!" Get it? Because so far the LAPD has fired at two Hispanic women and the Torrance Police Department fired at a white man. In both cases, police said they thought they were firing at Dorner. There's a window decal, too. (h/t Reddit)
There's also a T-shirt just in case the problem isn't that you have a truck like Dorner's, but that you happen to have the same skin color as the renegade ex-LAPD cop.
