From Night of the Living Dead (1968)

A North St. Paul man has been arrested after a bullet he allegedly intended to take out a zombie ended up nearly striking a man asleep in his home. According to the criminal complaint, the incident happened near the intersection of Memory Lane and Cowern Place East. Police who were summoned there at about 5 a.m. Saturday were told by the resident he was awakened by a gunshot and the sound of glass breaking in his room. Investigators determined the bullet had entered through a window, ricocheted near the head of the man’s bed, and struck a second wall.
Just outside the residence, police noted 24-year-old Ryan Mathew Stanislaw walking with an AR-15 rifle slung over his neck. “I’m out here making sure my neighborhood is safe,” he told officers, allegedly smelling of alcohol. “I didn’t see the cops, so I figured I’d do something.” Stanislaw told police that he was shooting at “a zombie” up the road. His rifle was taken; it had green-tipped Hornady .223-caliber bullets, which are marketed as zombie-killing bullets: ” Each round is loaded with a special, neon green, polymer-tipped Z-Max bullet that delivers devastating expansion and was specifically designed for zombie elimination. You never know when the impending zombie apocalypse will begin, so make sure you’re prepared with extra magazines and bugout bags stuffed full of this effective zombie specific ammunition.” The complaint says that Stanislaw’s mother claimed he had no history of mental illness. He had been convicted of making terroristic threats in Ramsey County last month.
I bought a box of those Hornady rounds for my Glock 23. Box of 25 for $7.99 on clearance. Look like they'd do the job. Should have bought everything on the shelf.
Sooooo....
What happened to the zombie?
Still on the loose in North St. Paul.
Far from me. Lucky it.

Well, it was obviously on its way to the nearest voter registration office.
Great for Halloween!

I have Thursday off.
I’ll go check it out.
Did you mean to reply to my post 6?
The Z-Max bullets are the same as the red tipped V-max bullets.
You pay a couple cents a round extra for the green colorant in the Z-max polymer tips and the green ink on the box.
Not having used either one on zombies, I couldn’t say with any surety as to whether the marketing gimmick makes them more effective on the walking dead.
Here’s an HD version of it...

I used to be on 24/7 IT call for emergency computer work on mainframes. Spooky going to deserted downtown sites at 3AM, ringing bells or banging on a door to be let in by security guards, waiting a long time. There’d be all kinds of homeless winos wandering around, just like in “Night of the Living Dead”. That’s the spooky part. They sleep during the day, and walk around at night to stay warm. Wasn’t allowed to have weapons when entering the sites I serviced, not a good feeling.
Did it require a reply?
A thank you?
Yipes!
Post 5 said this: Well, it was obviously on its way to the nearest voter registration office.
Meanwhile my post 6, which I thought you meant to reply to, was a link to a movie.
Anyway, I don't think a simple thank you would have been asking too much.
THANK YOU, VERY MUCH!!!
Why do you need to be such a smart ass about it? Weren’t you taught manners as a child? When someone does something nice for you, or believes they are doing something nice for, you say thank you.
I post many replies to many FReepers on many threads. Some of them educational and/or informative.
Since 7/1/2004, I have never asked for a thank you.
Cue The Cranberries....
In your head, in your head
Zombie, zombie, zombie
Hey, hey
What’s in your head, in your head
Zombie, zombie, zombie
Hey, hey, hey, oh
Dou, dou, dou, dou
Dou, dou, dou, dou
Dou, dou, dou, dou
Dou, dou, dou, dou
Not familiar with this.
I’ll have to do a YouTube search.
