Jerimiah Hartline of Tennessee says he was fleeing the undead when he stole a big rig truck while the driver was out at a truck scale in Rainbow, CA about 10 miles southwest of Temecula. According to Hartline he was swerving the truck side to side as he flew down the highway in an attempt to shake off the zombies clinging to the side of the truck. Hartline collided with several vehicles, injuring 8 people before overturning the truck and spilling it’s load of strawberries across Interstate 15 closing 4 lanes. This poor guy could get 5 years just for trying to get away from a horde of undead. It’s not known if he was under the influence of anything at the time of the wreck. Perhaps HE was the zombie.
In response to the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting on December 14th, 2012 sales of bullet proof backpacks for kids went through the roof, crashing the website and draining the inventory of A Salt Lake City, Utah, company called Amendment II. The company’s Ballistic Backpack retails for $300 USD. While many of the liberal media outlets are quick to point out the backlash from people who claim that Amendment II is trying to capitalize on the Sandy Hook tragedy very few have included Amendment II‘s response to the claim in their stories.
“We do not want to sensationalize this any more than it already is,” said Derek Williams, director of sales and marketing for Amendment II. “The fact of the matter is, in today’s world, this need exists and if we have the technology to protect people, why would we not allow them to purchase it?”
Williams also pointed out that the products have been available for months before the Sandy Hook tragedy. Williams says the company has received numerous threatening and “disturbing” calls, even from as far away as Italy.
While we at Stalking Zombies tend to think that having a kid suit up in body armor and be on constant alert for the next nutcase with a gun would be over the top and probably harmful to the child’s state of mind, throwing a sheet of soft body armor (that weighs less than a pound) in your child’s backpack seems like a reasonable way to give parents a little piece of mind. The kid doesn’t even need to know the armor is there. Of course schools have fire and emergency drills all the time, including drills involving unauthorized people on campus. So what’s wrong with teaching your kid to take cover behind whatever is available including their backpack? There is a difference between paranoid and prepared.
A 67-year-old man attacked a 28 year old teacher biting him several times in an attack that lasted about 30 seconds. Bystanders were too busy filming and gawking to try to stop the violence. Neither man was seriously injured and were taken into custody by police at the next stop where they made peace and both agreed to pay their own medical expenses. Personally we think the old man should have paid for that plate of sumyung gai. I guess they dine and ditch in China too. Video below. Warning: Graphic Content.
