He's No Zombie! Momma Says so!

A face-eating zombie cannibal or a Bible-reading, church-attending Christian?

Those are the two vastly different portraits being presented of Rudy Eugene, above left. He was gunned down by police Saturday afternoon in Miami after horrified onlookers found him naked and chewing on a homeless man's face, eating off his mouth, nose and forehead and gouging out one of the victim's eyes. The victim, above right, remains hospitalized and faces months, if not years, of recovery.

Eugene's mother, speaking out for the first time, said she's devastated by her son's inexplicable actions. But she says the media have her son all wrong.

She also criticized police for killing her son instead of trying to find other means of subduing the man that she said faithfully read the Bible and accompanied her to church.

“Everybody says that he was a zombie, but I know he’s not a zombie; he’s my son,” the mother, identified by the Miami Herald as Ruth Charles, told the newspaper.
"I feel devastated. That was not him who was seen on TV doing that. He was a nice kid. He was a good kid. He gave me a nice card on Mother’s Day," she told CBS TV in Miami. She added: "I never had any problems with him. The police don’t have to shoot him. They could have Tased him."

Mom might be speaking from experience. The Herald and CBS report that North Miami Beach Police used a stun gun on Eugene to break up a domestic dispute involving his mother in 2004. Beyond that incident, Eugene was arrested for a handful of minor, marijuana-related charges.

There has been some speculation that Eugene might have been fueled to a frenzy by "bath salts" -- a nickname for a potent, cocaine-and-speed laced street drug. It will take weeks before toxicology reports are completed.
Meanwhile, the victim's chances of recovery remain unclear. A homeless man who had a problem with alcohol, Ronald Poppo has suffered a loss of more than 75% of his face, according to reports. Doctors are trying to deal with the immediate concern -- infection -- before they begin addressing the possibility of facial reconstructive surgery.

Everybody says their kid would never do anything like that - especially right after they are caught doing something like that.

And for the record, momma is right. Zombies eat brains. This guy is a cannibal. There are some who contend that cannibalism can turn you into a zombie, but from the info available this guy had not turned -- yet.

stay safe.

But Skid, he was eating the face and the eyes, clearly he was going for the brains!

And with that said... Honestly, when was the last time you seen a zombie refuse to chomp down on other parts of the body? ;)

And now we have stories from MD, NJ and TX of similarly depraved and twisted weirdos eating brains, body parts, and other bizarre activities:

Man kills room mate, eats brains in MD:
http://www.cnn.com/2012/05/31/justice/maryland-alleged-cannibal/

Man stabs himself, throws his own intestines at cops in NJ:
http://www.foxnews.com/us/2012/05/3...es-at-cops-after-repeatedly-stabbing-himself/

Woman kills baby, eats brains and toes in Texas:
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/3217192...ors-stunned-child-dismemberment/#.T8mYvL_BrAI


And the CDC denies that Zombies exist, which means (given their prior track record) that not only does a Zombie Virus actually exist, but the US Government has isolated it, weaponized it, loaded into delivery devices and are planning to use it against the American People in some sort of twisted false-flag event to activate all-out martial law...

From the article:
But don't worry: according to government scientists, the zombies are not coming for you.

Did anyone else start shivering?

It may not be Hollywood's version of the undead, but these aren't zombie enthusiasts re-enacting a movie. With all the stories popping up lately, it makes me wonder; is there an increase in these stories or just an increase in reporting? We all know the media thrives on scaring the **** out of us, and ratings are ratings, but if these kinds of things were happening frequently, and weren't being reported, then, why not?

:uhoh:

ETA: I remember the CDC issued a "zombie preparedness strategy" a year or so ago to motivate people to prep for disaster, so in case of a hurricane or the like they would have food, water and a plan. Curiously, when I try to go to that page now, I get this.

The plot thickens.

He probably just didn't have time to get to the brain. Had the police not intervened...

Its the method of eating that indicates a zombie, even the known cannibals rendered their food first and treated it like any other carcass. Zombies eat while disregarding onlookers and bullets.

Don't I wish, they are all trying to escape the hell they created south of the border, and recreate it here ("We'll get it right this time, you'll see").

Makes me think of this blue wrangler unlimited I see sometimes. Plate says ZOMBRSQ. (Zombie Rescue)
It's got nobby tires, roof lights and racks, diamond plate, and a sticker on the back window featuring a zombie family complete with zombie dog.
