Miami Zombie... Any thoughts?

12Next →View All

PeachesEnMangos Permalink
PeachesEnMangos One more reason not for me to enter the state of Florida happened a couple days ago.. Someone was literally caught eating another mans face in broad daylight on the side of a Miami freeway. The person is now being called the Miami Zombie. There are lots of speculations in the story. One was that the guy was doing bath salts but the toxicology reports won't confirm that for a couple weeks. All I want to know is what can make a seemingly normal person want to eat someone else's face. The story is pretty gruesome, I haven't seen the video of it because of that, but here is the link to the story.

there may have been some altercation and there may have been someone that bit anther in the face, but out right cannibalism on a living person is more then exaggeration in my opinion....

ive unfortunately stumbled across a couple pictures of the victim and it was certainly more than just a bite to the face... he's missing 80% of his face...its really messed up, and i would definitely consider it full blown cannibalism.. not exaggerated by the media.

I dont think it was cannibalism either, from interviews with friends and family they said that he was a very religious person, maybe that had something to do with it. There are pictures of the crime scene with a person missing a face though, that cannot be denied. The video has poor quality but I heard you can still see what was going on generally. Anyway there are not many things that can drive another person to bite someone's face off. Of course there may be some exaggeration, i.e. Voodoo curse, but what happened was pretty extreme.

WasteOfTime Aromatherapy makes zombies, who knew?

Seriously though. 'Bath Salts' is not a specific drug like the newly synthesized amphetamines they are speculating about in the articles. 'Bath Salts' is the marketing device used to sell RANDO RESEARCH CHEMICALS as 'X' get you high powder. Someone who is swallowing something sold to them as 'random research chemicals' who is then jacked up on said chemicals sounds frightening...this story follows. The whole seedy underworld of Internet distributed gray area research chemical pharmacy needs to be examined, hopefully this will initiate that. It's not an uptight anti-drug position, they need to shut down the shady companies who sell this poison and let the organic farms go legit.

Phlat_Brim_Kid It took 12 shots to kill the man! after the 1st he just growled then went back to eating face!

If this was a "real" zombie attack, that how they would explain it away!
He was on drugs! Nothing to worry about public! we got it under control!

Not that the zombie apocalapse is starting but trust me they will lie just like this when it does!
Be prepared!

dpwilljr I work as a trauma nurse at a large hospital in southeast Florida. Someone at work actually showed me a photo of the victim's face upon his arrival at, I can only assume, Jackson Ryder trauma center.

i will bet that once sorted out, it is either a Vet that recently came home from tour and was not helped by the VA for his trauma, or someone that was under the influence of PCP or ICE or it was a homeless person that is mentally ill and was let out of a hospital without a place or family to go to...either way... if you think zombies are coming, put your jammies on and tell your mommie its time to get tucked in

I don't know, the story seems pretty legit along with the pictures and accounts from cops who said 80% of his face was missing, and the interview from the witness who intervened. I don't always believe cops, but they really don't have much of a reason to lie about this. What don't you believe about the story? They're not actually claiming it was a zombie, as of right now they suspect the guy was homeless and on drugs, according to accounts from other local homeless people.

That's because the networks & the cops don't have a clue about anything & like to sensationalize shit. There's no "really strange strain of LSD". There are research chemicals flooding the streets. Designer drugs of the Phenethylamine family. Some of which are stimulants. ("bath salts" are comprised of various combinations of these) Some of which that are hallucinogenic, such as the nBROMes which are active in microgram doses, and are therefore being laid to paper & broken down in liquid & sold as acid. They aren't even in the same chemical family as LSD though. Doses that are bitter & numbing are a telltale sign that it's actually an nBROMe.

oh that's what it is. cops dont know anything about drugs. they only work with them everyday. just because you guys probably all hate cops doesnt mean they are stupid. and yes it is possible that there is a bad strain of LSD. I know most of you are probably big supporters of LSD and think it's no big deal to take it. And you know what, maybe most of the time it isn't. But i can tell you that my friend's brother took it once and he can barely talk at all and his perception of life is forever f*cked. It is possible that LSD can alter your mind. That is what it does.

Busta_Move ::rolls eyes:: working with drugs every day? You mean working to bust people with drugs everyday. They know nothing about them; all they "know" is the bullshit government propaganda that they help spread.

It's not possible for there to be a bad strain of LSD. For starters, LSD isn't a plant; it's a molecule. Sure some batches of crystal are less pure than others, but all that will do is lower the potency & contribute to a less smooth feel overall once you get to the higher doses. Impurities don't make people snap out. Predispositions to mental illness make people snap out. Your friends brother must have had underlying issues to be affected like that. You have no idea how much LSD is consumed by people, with no negative consequences. I'm talking about hundreds if not thousands of doses in some cases. For example, Robert Hunter was unknowingly dosed with about a quarter gram of LSD once. That's 250,000 micrograms. To put that in perspective, most doses these days are between 50-100mics a piece. He's doing just fine.

Do some legitimate research & you'll find out for yourself. I've researched & used LSD for years. I dedicated some years of my life to learning about & spreading LSD consciousness to anyone who wanted it. I think I learned a thing or two from those years. By research I mean studying genuine unbiased scientific studies. Not DARE bullshit or "my older brother's one friend's cousin took acid & thought he turned into a glass of orange juice" stories. Real research.

In the town I went to high school in Vermont, the "village idiot" had this whole legend around him about he was an "LSD dealer" when he was young and he was running from the cops in the woods with 100 sheets of acid and it started to rain so he put the sheets under his shirt to protect them and he lied down in tall grass so the cops wouldn't find him and all the acid soaked into his skin and... you get the idea.

My best friend's mom was a social worker in this same town, Rutland, VT if you are curious, and she worked with the man and his family and the TRUTH of the situation was that he was exposed to lead paint as a child. The extent to which SOMEONE went to create a story about this poor guy to SCARE KIDS AWAY FROM DRUGS is very interesting, and insulting to the man and his family.

Instead of spreading a warning about toxins in and around your household, they warped it into a method of instilling fear in people. Many parents in the town truly believed this story.

Also, DARE is a scary program. I DARE you to teach your children the TRUTH, not government propaganda.
