i'm posting this because the other thread doesn't have all these nifty photos

my favorite is the guy standing with the "bail bonds" advertisement in the background. i find that ironic.

also note: apparently armed man COMPLIES with police...

and is NOT shot.

i can GUARANTEE he would have been if he didn't

the lesson here is twofold.

1) comply with police
2) the police routinely make high risk arrests of armed people WITHOUT shooting them. in almost all cases (but not all), when cops shoot it is because the suspect escalates/instigates.

great job by SPD btw

also, of course if the guy was shot, since he is black, it would be RACISM.

3. Best quote in the article:

"According to the complainant, the suspect walked in wanting to be served breakfast," police said in a statement. "He informed the staff that he was a vampire and wanted to eat people. The staff declined to serve him and asked him to leave."

6. I would guess by the daylight hours, he is not a real vampire.

That and because vampires are fictional. (well except as metaphor)


On a serious note, I hope he gets the help he needs.


Actually it is probably one of those embellished news articles.
lots of them floating around.





Well there always the day walkers... Vampires with a soul, that is an interesting concept.

And in the movie Powder, one scene they called him a space vampire, so there is that refrence.
