UPDATE:This statement was taken from from Local10.com news:

“I was a witness to this police shooting. I stopped a city of Miami Police officer and informed him that a homeless man was killing another person by biting and ripping his face to death. The police officer confronted the aggressor and he was like a rabid dog and confronted the officer. then the officer shot the person 4 times. This was an incredible horrific experience and will think about moving my family out of Miami. I lived my whole life in New York and never experienced something this crazy. It was something out of walking dead one person eating another person piece by piece.”

Posting while drunk is fine Serenity. However personal experience compels me to tell you to never go for the dreaded triple threat. Remind me sometime to tell you the story of the day my buddy's wife came home and found us out in the pasture, drunk off our a##es es, and shooting beer cans off each others heads.

So, me and my buddy are at his house in the country. We're drinking bourbon and beer. A lot of bourbon and beer. He's got all his weapons, and my truck is full of weapons. We have crates of ammunition. You can see where this is going.

Well my H&K 91 has a new scope on it I haven't sighted in. We decide to sight it in. Something convinced us to drag his couch to the back door to use as a shooting bench. Being as we were drunk and the claw mount on the H&K kept slipping, it took us 40-50 rounds to get her hitting to point of aim. Of course we didn't pay any attention to the empty casings all over the floor.

When we were all sighted in, we geared up and headed out to the back forty to burn some powder. I was toting the H&K, Browning Hi Power, and S&W Model 38. He had some kind of AR15 and a pair of  S&W .357s. Oh yeah, took the booze of course. So,  we wander around the pasture shooting dirt clods, sticks, and such.

The railroad track ran right behind his place. We noticed a lot of trash and cans laying on the embankment and we were running short of targets. So we climbed the barbed wire fence and had a great time shooting up the trash.. I was laying on the tracks when a train came around the bend, but I got out of the way just fine. You've got to remember, this was a different time. When the engineer saw two armed men standing beside the tracks waving, he just smiled, gave two long blasts on the whistle, and waved back. People were a lot friendlier in the old days.

We ran out of bourbon about then, and headed back to the house. When we got back we got out another bottle and some more beer. We started a fire too, cause booze, guns , and fire go together like cake and ice cream.

As we're standing around the fire I allowed as to how we probably shouldn't be playing with guns while we were drunk. My buddy agreed and set a beer can on top of my head and shot it off. Now we were both wearing hats so its not as bad as it seems. There was an inch or so clearance when you take the hat into account.

So we just kept backing away from each other shooting cans off each others heads. There were a lot of cans laying around. When we got past about twenty feet we switched to the rifles. Well we were at about forty feet and I had the H&K dead on and was taking up the slack in the trigger, when I hear this awful screeching. My buddy's wife comes flying out the back door and starts running back and forth between us punching and pounding on us. She was making that Godawful screeching sound the whole time. She was a nurse by the way. This was back when nurses wore white and those funny little hats. She was a redhead and looked sexy as all get out prancing around in a rage wearing that nurse's outfit.  

We finally got her calmed down. She told us she had come home, walked into the living room, slipped on the shell casings and fell flat on her ass. Wish I could have seen that. She said she looked around the living room and thought we had had finally got in a fight and one of us had killed the other or we had killed each other. Then she heard a shot from out back and when she saw us that's when the screeching started.

Anyhow she took our guns away. She was kind of mad. Like most redheads she had a temper on her. She wouldn't cook supper for us either. When I ponied up a couple of 20s she was nice enough to drive back into town and get us all hamburgers. She wouldn't buy us any more beer. I guess forty bucks only buys so much nice.

I stayed at my buddy's house that night. I don't drive if I've been drinking. That's dangerous. You might hurt somebody. The next morning she made us clean up the house and yard. I was feeling a little puny but I did her a real good job.

Now in the fullness of time I realize what we we're doing was very foolish. I am now the first one to preach that alcohol and firearms are a very bad mix. As for that day, well it seemed like a good idea at the time.

Another incident in Miami that occurred this past April. Also naked. I'm wagering a guess that the infection began on a nude beach.

Isn't this how it begins?

Wow just wow roamer, that gives me chills to think about it.A funny story, but nonetheless chilling. I have had guns pointed point blank at my head and knives on my throat, but never with my permission, and I never had a friend that I trusted to shoot a can off my head, hat or not. :)

When I was about 16 me and some buddies were drinking and talking about Russian Roulette. We finally got drunk enough to get serious about giving it a whirl. I got out my .22 Colt Frontier Scout, put a round in the chamber and started spinning. All the while I was thinking how good the odds were and and what a bad ass I would be in the eyes of my pals.

Long story short, I weenied out at the last second and put a round into the ceiling. It sobered me up quicker than anything ever, before or since. Needless to say no one else in the room was interested in giving it a try after that.

I don't know if you would say that round going into the ceiling instead of my head was a sign of future bad luck or good but it was life changing for me. Gambling has never felt the same and I when the stakes are high, the odds need to be way more that 5 to 1 in my favor.

I love shooting and collecting guns but I am one ultra-careful dude and uncomfortable with any kind of horseplay involving firearms.
For a reasonable fee, I will quell minor outbreaks, enforce quarantines, and dispatch infected relatives.

And right you are, I probably shouldn't have posted that. Firearms are deadly serious and the above post while amusing in a way is embarrassing because it illustrates how stupid I have been in my life.

I have worked as a firearms instructor. I always go on and on at length about safety. Particularly that when the first drinks come out the guns get locked up. I don't pass somebody until I'm sure they get the whole message. I wouldn't even let my sons play with toy guns because I wanted to teach them that a gun is a gun. Never point anything resembling a gun at something you aren't willing to destroy.

The Russian Roulette reminds me of a story another instructor once told me. Seems there was a fellow who liked to show how macho he was by playing the game at drinking parties. He had a trick. He would always pick the gun up with the barrel facing him and glance at the cylinder quickly to see the position of the round before placing it to his head.

Now the cylinder on almost all revolvers rotate clockwise. On some of the older Colt double actions it rotates counter clockwise. While drinking at someone else's house our hero pulled his standard trick. The revolver his friend handed him was an older Colt. Not knowing his firearms that well, he proceeded to spread his brains all over the wall.

I just thought of something else about the above story. While my friend's wife was pounding on us, I actually told her how sexy she looked in her uniform. Now I'm not sure, because like I said she was pounding on us pretty good, but I think that's when I got the fat lip.

When I do stupid, I don't just do stupid. I do double plus good, Chinese arithmetic home work, triple top secret, quantum theory physics stupid.

Woooow!

Had to be something other than LSD. I was teenage when LSD was easy to acquire. $5 a hit. Had a lot of crazy fun times. But never ever ever anything happened that was life threatening. Nor did I or any of my mates ever suddenly get the urge to eat someone. It was great for tearing down perceptual filters, but violence was never a part of our experience.

This is bizarre. Thank God I'm in Texas and currently licensed to conceal carry. This guy would have been found chewing on the business end of my 1911 .45.

Again I have to say it. Woooow !

The LSD of today is NOT the LSD of the 60's and 70's. Be warned if you're tempted because there's only a very FEW people that actually know how to make the original stuff. Last time I took it was around '78 and this was from a batch cooked up in '72 ... (yeah aged). Today god knows you got idjits and morons mixing it up with drain cleaners and other household crap, putting it on blotter paper and calling it acid.
Oh it's acid alright just not Timothy Leary type acid.

Now THAT is scary stuff.

Having seen a friend blast the back of his head with a shotgun and watching other friends lose their brains because another friend got stupid/careless. I don't mess with firearm safety. I love guns as well but don't mess with them. Even if the bullets were in another building and behind a locked door in a steel safe... the gun is always, always loaded.

It's pretty worrying if this truly is 'the start of the apocalypse'..
I don't believe in the end of the world mumbo-jumbo but the date of the beginning of the end (21/12) is getting closer and the fact that there have been two incidents involving 'face chewing' is very weird.

Then again, drugs do have strange effects on people, and I guess things like this happen in a lot of places, we just don't hear about it. Hopefully it's just a man that went mad and nothing else; the zombie apocalypse is something fun to imagine when on screen or when playing on a console, but for it to happen on your front door, not so amusing..

sound familiar......

What’s happening is whenever we see that a person has taken all of his  clothes off and has become violent, it’s indicative of this excited  delirium that’s caused by [an] overdose of drugs,” Armando Aguilar of  the Miami Fraternal Order of Police told WSVN 13 News. “What’s happening  is inside their body their organs are burning up alive.”

Vega said the cop ordered the man to stop, but he did not listen. He  then drew his gun, but “the guy just stood... with pieces of flesh in  his mouth and he growled,”
...................

http://www.zombiezon...ed-in-miami-fl/

update ......

Aguilar said the man ate his victim’s nose and eyeballs.

The officer then used his service weapon and shot the man, Aguilar said, but the gunshot had no effect.

Other sources confirmed that the man refused to obey, and continued  his attack. Aguilar said the officer had no choice but to keep shooting  until the attacker was dead.



Thats how it starts.......

On another note I think it's awesome that World War Z is being released into theaters on December 21st, 2012. ahahaha. smart mofos... love it.

Naah, I enjoy sharing stupidities, yours gave me an opportunity to share mine. Believe me I haven't scratched the surface.

The important thing is not repeating the same stupidity more than once...well, maybe twice...or three times on very rare occasions.
