The U.S. Navy recently released a video meant to scare people from getting high on bath salts, according to a report on CBS News. In the video, produced by Navy Medicine command, a sailor ingests some lines of white powder. And then freakish things happen to him. The faces of people he knows turn into demons, while they're asking him if he's OK. Eventually, the sailor is taken to a hospital where medical personnel working on him indicate that his vital signs are dangerously high. Lt. George Loeffler, a psychiatry resident who works at the Naval Medical Center San Diego,...

A naked intruder who was trying to choke a pet Rottweiler was shot by a homeowner in Miami Wednesday morning, police said. The bizarre incident happened around 5 a.m. in the area of Northwest 2nd Avenue and 56th Street when the occupants of the home were awoken when they heard a commotion and dogs barking. When the homeowner went to check out the noise, he confronted the suspect, who was completely naked and trying to choke one of the dogs, police said. "He comes out and spots a person who is not only fighting with this dog but is naked...

Police say a Willston Park, New York, man shot his girlfriend in the back Monday following an argument about the AMC adaptation of The Walking Dead. Twenty-six-year-old Jared M. Gurman reportedly believed a military mishap could lead to the release of a virus, triggering a zombie apocalypse; Jessica Gelderman, 27, thought the idea was absurd. According to police, the argument escalated and even continued through text messages after Gelderman left the apartment to spend the night at her parents’ house. When Gelderman returned to try to smooth things over with her boyfriend, police allege he was sitting on the stairs...

Max Brooks is gonna be mad.... But, the trailer looks pretty good.

Don't worry, like the exploding children, this is all uproariously funny! Unabashed bigotry is always such a knee slapper. Besides, Republicans really are brain-eating zombies who need to be slaughtered comic-book style, so it really is funny, right? The authors are self-proclaimed enemies of hate (the FCKH8ers of RepublicanZombieDefense.com), and they actually did one anti-hate thing. They removed the head-bashing of a climate-skeptic "zombie" from the original version of their video. That should make the deleted scene newsworthy enough to embed here as fair use: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=az9g9tyC-7M&feature=player_embeddedSome of the other "Republican zombies" who need to be machine-gunned, chain-sawed, chopped and grenaded according...

Naked, covered in his own blood and screaming "like an animal," a Doylestown man attacked a woman in Hawley on Friday and gnawed on her head after breaking into a home and jumping from a second-floor window, state police said. Richard Cimino Jr., 20, first pulled his car behind 634 Hudson St. early Friday morning, got out and stripped to his underpants, state police said. When the resident at that home awoke to Mr. Cimino's attempt to break in, Mr. Cimino fled to 521 Hudson St., took his underpants off on the way and broke into that home, which was...

HAWLEY, Pa. (CBS) – A Doylestown man, who was naked and bleeding profusely, gnawed on woman’s head all while “screaming like an animal” during a wild neighborhood rampage, state police said. The bizarre incident played out in the early morning hours of September 7th in Hawley Boro, which is in Wayne County, Pennsylvania. According to investigators, the incident began when 20-year-old suspect Richard Ciminio Jr. parked his car behind a home on Hudson Street, got out and stripped down to his underwear. State Police say Ciminio then tried to break into a home, but was unsuccessful. Police say Ciminio then...

September 11, 2012 The Second 9/11: Today will go down in infamy as the day our government became our enemy by Zombie I am stunned. Stunned that our government would betray its own constitution to side with our enemies. Stunned that they did this on 9/11, of all days. Stunned that a culture remains so backward in the 21st century that an embarrassingly amateurish home movie actually poses a threat to their fragile worldview. And most of all stunned that our government’s betrayal of its own nation isn’t dominating the news and the public consciousness. The story has come out...

The ‘alert’ was a humorous way to give advice to citizens on how to prepare for such real threats as hurricanes, earthquakes, pandemics and terrorist attacks. If zombies take over, the government wants you to be prepared. The Homeland Security Department warned citizens on Thursday that the “zombies are coming,” and urged them to be ready for a walking-dead apocalypse, The Associated Press reported. The zombie “warning” is part of a public health campaign calling for citizens to be ready for disaster — to know to stock up on food, batteries and water, and to keep extra changes of clothes...

The government’s zombie apocalypse is spreading and could come to an emergency-management center near you. A few weeks before the government’s Zombie Awareness Month in October, FEMA’s monthly webinar Thursday discussed the success of the Centers for Disease Control’s zombie-preparedness campaign and how other centers can use pop culture references – even fictitious ones like the walking dead – to promote gearing up for real disasters. Almost 400 emergency-management professionals tuned in nationwide, according to an official at the Federal Emergency Management Agency. “Zombie-preparedness messages and activities have proven to be an effective way of engaging new audiences, particularly young...

Revealing Politics asked DNC attendees and delegates in Charlotte what they thought of one of the themes of the DNC promotional video that played in the arena last night— “The government is the only thing we all belong to.” The Obama campaign is backing away from the video, but DNC attendees sure aren’t. “Regardless of where you live, you’re gonna be owned by someone at some point. I think the American government so far has been a fair government and I don’t necessarily hate that I’m owned by them at this point.”

A Houston-area man has been accused of grabbing an 11-year-old boy and biting him on the face. Records show 70-year-old Abdus Sattar of Spring has been charged with injury to a child in the July 14 incident. Authorities say the boy told investigators he was riding his go-kart when a man flagged him down. A criminal complaint says the man grabbed by the boy, kissed him and bit his cheeks. The child ran away and told his parents, who called authorities.

My preparations for the coming zombie apocalypse came down to one thing: a baseball bat. But this kit from OpticsPlanet makes me think I'm being terribly naive. The Z.E.R.O. (Zombie Extermination, Research, and Operations) Zombie Kit is the mother of all undead survival kits.

I was having lunch with some of my students last week and all they wanted to talk about was the coming apocalypse. Not the book of Revelations, exactly – and not exclusively zombies. They were more interested in the all-too-pervasive feeling that *the shit*, as they say, is going to hit the fan. Fecal matter in ventilation systems, sure, but what does that mean? Zombies, they know, are just a metaphor. We have no idea what’s coming. The Zombie is just a mirror of sorts – we make the boogey man look us because we know – even if we...

"Zombie" attacks continue: Naked man arrested after biting Fla. man Despite assurances from the CDC that zombies do not, in fact, exist, strange things keep happening in Florida. The Center for Disease Control says we have no reason to fear a zombie virus. But that hasn't stopped a series of strange events, including one in which Rudy Eugene brutally attacked a homeless man, biting off chunks of his face. Perhaps 22-year-old Jeremiah Haughee found Eugene to be an inspirational figure. That's our best guess for why he was climbed naked onto the roof of a St. Augustine, Fla., home, bit...

So the rumor is that the Zombie Apocalypse may have arrived. Sure, the Centers for Disease Control denies it, but what does the CDC know?

If you are still a supporter of Obomanomics, after this last report, you are an O-Zombie... there is no hope for you or the rest of us if your kind outnumber our kind. The good news is that rationality still has a foothold with a great many of us... I think... Many who bought into the Obama-hype, have seen their error. (My evidence is merely anecdotal, but I'll take that...) The bad news is, there are still many who drag their limbs Zombie-like in support of this mad-man president, regardless of their personal circumstance. I'm not so sure they really...
