They said the 'zombie' was high on a syntheic drug. Walking dead here we come.

Meh. Just the usual mentally-unstable-transients-who-should-be-in-a-state-run-institution story mixed in with "takes drug that messes with normal peoples minds; we don't know how crazy interacts with said drug".

There is already a thread for this. It's titled "miami zombie".

I totally think all the zombie stuff is funny but we do need to realize that it isn't actually good journalism.

The boring truth is probably that they haven't been. I'm not saying these stories didn't happen -- they all did -- I'm saying that stuff like this almost definitely happens all over the world, all the time. Remember last year, when everyone thought the world was ending because birds kept dying? Five thousand birds dropped out of the sky in Arkansas, and then thousands of dead fish washed up on the shores of the Arkansas River, and then 500 birds died suddenly in Louisiana, and then a bunch of other birds died in a bunch of other places all over the world, all within the same two-month span.

At the time, we all freaked out, because it was similar to a lot of end-of-the-world prophecies, which would have been terrible for us, and it was also similar to the plot of The Core, which was even worse. The truth, we later learned, was that some weird bird epidemic was killing all of these birds; this was just how life goes. Birds die in bunches, all of the time, all over the world, for what looks like no reason. The difference is that we're never looking for these stories, but last year, we were. And boooooy, did we find them.

Christians love the walking dead.
