Miami-Dade Police Dept. – Ronald Poppo before he was attacked.
Ronald Poppo recounts Zombie-like face eating attack
NBC News is reporting that Ronald Poppo, the cannibalistic attack by Rudy Eugene, is speaking out about the incident for the first time.
Rudy Eugene
“He just ripped me to ribbons. He chewed up my face. He plucked out my eyes. Basically, that’s all there is to say about it.”
“He mashed my face into the sidewalk. My face is all bent and mashed up. My eyes, my eyes got plucked out. He was strangling me in wrestling holds at the same time he was plucking my eyes out.”
The story contains a graphic image of the victim who lost nearly 80% of his face and has required multiple reconstructive surgeries.
This attack was one of the first of several face-eating, pet-eating, and other “zombie-like” incidents to occur this past Spring and Summer.

Dish Network Responds to AMC’s NYC Zombie Experiment

Dish Network CEO Charles Ergen
Dish Network’s Zombie Experiment Response
Dish Network Chairman Charlie Ergen recently responded to AMC’s Zombie Experiment by saying “Our customers are not looking at zombies in New York City”, he said. “They live on farms and ranches”.
I suppose that will put an end to my thoughts about switching over to Dish from Directv. I don’t live on a farm OR a ranch. Furthermore, farms and ranches are quite possibly where zombies will strike first.
Dish has expressed interest in contracting AMC as a single channel, but that sort of deal has not been offered. The contract being offered includes lesser watched channels like WEtv, IFC, and the Sundance channel.
AMC offers acclaimed and well watched shows such as The Walking Dead, Mad Men and Breaking Bad. But to provide those shows to their customers, Dish would also be forced to pay for this stellar lineup:
WEtv: Bridezillas, Braxton Family Values
IFC: Portlandia, Comedy Bang! Bang!, Bunk,Whisker Wars
Sundance: Sundance Film Festival, Push Girls, All on the Line with Joe Zee, Girls Who Like Boys Who Like Boys, Robert Redford Presents
After perusing that lineup of shows, I can certainly see Dish’s point. Not only would Dish have to pay for shows like these, but the costs would obviously be passed on to its customers. Ergen’s comments about WE, IFC, and Sundance: “There hasn’t been a time when anyone in our family has watched one second of those channels”.
I can only hope now that IFC doesn’t launch some sort of a viral “Whisker Wars” protest in Chicago. Or that the streets of Pittsburgh aren’t overrun with Girls Who Like Boys Who Like Boys.

Corpses Dumped in Inner City Areas
It seems our streets and cities are already beginning to show visible signs of a coming and current zombie apocalypse. Corey Williams, from the Associated Press has included details in his August 2nd 2012 story titled VACANT DETROIT BECOMES DUMPING GROUND FOR THE DEAD. The article highlights the decades long deterioration of the city, and the effects this deterioration has had on law enforcement.
According to the story:
Abandoned and neglected parts of the city are quickly becoming dumping grounds for the dead – at least a dozen bodies in 12 months’ time. And authorities acknowledge there’s little they can do.
As we imagine what our streets will look like after the zombies rise, it’s not difficult to see striking parallels with the current conditions of inner-city streets in cities like Detroit.

Zombies Rise in Protest
The Westboro Baptist Church, known for its controversial protests of funerals, usually military funerals, was the subject of a counter-protest by a group of zombies.
Reported by Kiro 7 Eyewitness News in Seattle on July 27th, a group dressed as zombies launched a counter-protest of the group who is notorious claiming that God is punishing the nation for its support of the gay lifestyle. The group was apparently organized through a Facebook campaign.
The zombies mixed with the uninfected in support of the soldiers and all those that have been subject to the WBC’s protests.
Regardless of my inherent fear of zombies, and my concern that we may be getting desensitized to their presence among us, I do give credit where credit is due.
