OK, it's getting weird. The "bath salts zombie" stories are piling up. This time from a ZH reader today.
I am not so sure it's media hysteria this time around. Good thing I am working on Rule #1.
I can run 3 miles now, but these bath salts zombies seem pretty quick and don't tire easily. Could I outrun a bath salt zombie waving a sickle around? (They did have to double-tap that guy in Miami, BTW.)
There oughta be a central repository for bath salt zombie stories so that we can track the spread. Sounds like a job for Google Flu Trends.

A bit off topic here, but "insanity" is part of the topic/headline.
My wife just got accosted by someone apparently on the bath salts. I thought you folks would be interested. We live in rural suburbia, so this seems odd. Or maybe not?
She was turning off of the highway onto our usual side street and, immediately after she turned, she saw a man walking toward her car on her side of the road. He then stepped out in front of the car, and she could see that he was brandishing a sickle and waving it around. No shit. He had jeans but no shirt and was sweating profusely. He stood squarely in front of her car, screaming "Hit me, bitch!".
She miraculously managed to get around him into the other lane as he shouted at her through the passenger side window. When she looked into her rear view mirror as she sped away, she could see that he was going after the cars that had been turning behind her. As she got about a mile down the road, two cops sped past in the other direction (toward the incident) with their lights on.
I mean, a sickle. Freaking zombie grim reaper shit. I am thankful to the Father in Heaven that she made it home from the bank. Insanity is catching.

This seems to be happening more and more often around my area also. They arrested a man last night behind the diner who was eating a stray cat. Very strange indeed.

Bath Salts Zombies are the new PCP druggies which replaced the glue and gas sniffers? What's a self-mutilating crackhead to do, dammit?
That cardio will always come in handy. Glad to hear you are running!
As far as the bath salt zombies, there will always be a drug available to get people nuts (Unknown beat me to the PCP). I haven't seen any of these creepies here in Wisco yet but will be sure to drop you a line if I do.
If more established, conventional uppers and/or psychedelics -- like cocaine or LSD -- were legally available, no one in their right mind would take these unproven chemical analogues with unknown effects.
That's the drug war. Ban relatively safe drugs, so people turn to more untested, probably unsafe drugs. Then ban those drugs, later rinse, repeat. It's brilliant...
P.S. "My wife just got accosted by someone apparently on the bath salts. "
"on the bath salts"? LOL... This guy must be in his 70s or 80s. Maybe he can do more research about the drug "on the Google".
Addicts desperate for any high, now that everyone's cracking down on prescription pills.
The kindest thing to do is to lock them in the 'drunk tank' for a week - a 'tough love' detox,
But keep a garden hose handy to clean up the mess!
Supposedly kids are even huffing refrigerant from their home's central A/C.
Walkin' round in bath salt zombieland.
