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.

You need to meet a better class of dragons.
Like, mine, for example. They make good drinking buddies.
Didn’t see #202. Didn’t read #202. How many decibels was it hee hee hee?
What a gorgeous jelly donut! Gotta have fried dough. Thank you for the inspiration and I hope you and yours had a marvelous Fourth!
“somewhere in your four books there should be something that refers to bath salts”
Iirc, there were an awful lot of baths, so maybe the bath salts were implied....
Dang. Prayers up. Sweet dreams, dear Face!
Prost and sweet dreams to you and yours, and to all of the UT FReepers!
I’d guess maybe 120-130 db...
I didn’t read that. (Awesome!)
Civic ed group thing went nicely. There were more visitors when the first band started playing so we revised our booth-manning and we showed up between 1600-1800 in addition to being there for a few hours in the AM. Two adults and one teen were interested in the Obamacare Tax Implication handout, quite a few adults were interested in the pocket constitutions, and the kids enjoyed the toys w/patriotic themes (stars and stripes airplanes, balloons, paddle toys, flags, etc.)
We checked on our 82yo combat vet neighbor, and it’s a good thing we did, because we’re going to feed the horse in the mornings until his daughter returns.
What’s new at your end of the castle?
Are bath salts, salts you put in bath water? Kinda like putting salt in water when you boil pasta?
They used to be, before the people who redefine our words decided to use those words to describe a hallucinogenic narcotic.
In my books, I did not describe people doing crazy things like using chemicals to turn their brains into tossed salad. I was crafting Science Fiction, you see, and I had to stick to an approximation of realistic behavior.
I guess by the time you’re in the snubnose range,
it’s time to switch to the machete... :)
Otherwise, “snubnose range” could mean that you’re about to lose yours.
Hello! I’s morning! And silly, me, I slept until 0700, plus a two hour nap in the afternoon. Then I went outside to see a bunch of neighbors in the remada, having champagne and sat with them for about an hour before coming in for bed for real.
Good morning! It sounds like you slept well.
It’s hot here already. I watered the gardens. Later, say 3-ish, I plan to take the little kids to the park. It will still be hot, but we won’t need gallons of sunscreen if we go out that late.
They want me to take them to the water park at the aquatic center, but even I were sitting in the shade, I just can’t stand the loud music. Why can’t people just enjoy playing in the water, free of blaring cacophony?
” In my books, I did not describe people doing crazy things like using chemicals to turn their brains into tossed salad. I was crafting Science Fiction, you see, and I had to stick to an approximation of realistic behavior. “
Well, SOMEWHAT realistic behavior..
Er, yes ... realistic.
Which leads to the question do you bathe in boiling water, in pasta water, in boiling pasta water...?
Thank you for my first hugh lol of the day!
