'I'm a eat you': Crazed naked man high on bath salts threatens to eat police officers as they try to

Newest 'cannibal': Karl Laventure apparently told police he wanted to eat their faces

Laventure appeared out of some woods and was seen running naked around a golf range near Atlanta, swinging a club around his head and screaming.

At first, they tried using pepper spray to stop him, but that left him undeterred.

'He didn't even wipe his eyes, he just kept them open,'

They then turned to their Tasers and though that momentarily shocked Laventure to the ground, it did not stop him.


Trouble: It took several police officers a significant amount of effort to subdue Karl Laventure when he was allegedly high on bathsalts

'We had to Tase him approximately five more times on scene to get him down. It took several officers to hold him down to get him cuffed,'

He was still talking gibberish, cussing, saying he wanted to eat us, other people

The video shows him talking about the deceased rappers Biggie and Tupac, making animal sounds, and continuing to threaten the police officers.


Strong: Police sprayed him with pepper spray and shocked him with a taser five times before they were able to get him on the ground


Interrupted: Witnesses saw a naked Laventure running around the Atlanta Golf Center on June 14 'making animal noises'

Among other things he said "I'm'a eat you. I'll eat you, I don't want to eat you but I will,"

Though they controlled him enough to force him to a nearby hospital, he attacked one of the nurses on the scene and another fight ensued.

There have been a number of 'cannibal' incidents linked to bath salts in recent weeks.

Bath salts, a synthetic amphetamine cocktail known as 'the new LSD'

But don’t bother calling AAA to help you if you have trouble.

Or AA.

Do you have hot-weather and cold-weather clothes in your closet all year ‘round? That is totally schizophrenic weather for us four-season people!

It’s not easy to make a two-mile trip in the heat. Drat. My friend’s grandson is in a desert town and rides his bike to work; she’s very concerned that he’ll develop heat prostration on one of those trips.

Huh? You wear different clothes throughout the year?

When I lived in the desert, I wore pretty much the same stuff all year round. Now I go from shorts to fleece-lined boots, gloves, etc.

When I lived in the desert, it was Winter in the morning, and Summer in the afternoon every day.

Unless we had precipitation. Then it was a celebration, as people wandered around looking up at the sky, and marveling at the inexplicable phenomenon.

I didn't know you had a back-up plan.

Surely, after all these years, you’ve noticed that I don’t have a plan at all! As the song says, “I’m subject to the natural forces.”

I’ve decided to get The Stig a little harness and leash when he is more used to being handled, and take him out for some almost-freedom flights.

We see a few sparrows here, but mostly pigeons and mocking birds, both of which are extremely messy. It’s an obstacle course to get to the mailbox without coating your shoes with guano.

If said grandson wears a helmet and travels at the speed limit, the wind will keep him cool. He just needs to make sure to drink lots of fluids.

It sounds like your development needs more catz.

We have lots of catz, but if they come outside, they have to be on a leash, just like the dogs. There are strays, but they forage at night.

See, if you interfere with the natural functioning of the food chain, you get bird poop all over!

Sigh, I need to go to Walmart again, and then start pulling myself together to go to a funeral. A gentleman from Chile died from Lou Gehrig’s Disease last weekend.

Tell that to the management.

I don’t do funerals. There have been too many deaths during my life, and I don’t want to count them as I have my moves. I’m sure it would be about the same number.

The essay was sent off yesterday, and while I was proof-reading it, I remembered three moves I didn’t add. So I just noted them at the bottom. Long read, that: Six pages.

I understand. Someday I may feel the same way, but for now, I want to “show the flag” for the parish and the Knights of Columbus ... and I’d have gone to Mass anyway if there was no funeral.

Baby’s awake, off to Walmart.

“Winter in the morning”
See, that’s the thing. My heart doesn’t start beating and cerebrum doesn’t get perfused ‘til 1130. When we had rain, everybody was afraid to go out because nobody knew how to drive in the rain and there were accidents galore.
