Why he would be taking out the wrong people...and not the actual zombies....

silly, you don't punch zombies, you take their heads off.

I think when the man was eating the waiter, it just gave it away.

He was taking great initiative though! That guy could have been a zombie

You either nut up or shut up.

If I were the accused zombie I'd be thankful the incident didn't end up a bizarre decapitation.

There can be only one...

This guy is awesome. But did the guy LOOK like a zombie...?

 

[SuperFerret]

I hope this guy is locked up for everyone's safety. Joking about it is one thing, but actually believing in the walking dead? That's gotta be grounds for some kind of incarceration.

 

[LouFerignoDemon]

I done get the feeling the person might've been high on something.

 

[SuperFerret]

Probably grey matter.

 

[LouFerignoDemon]

Probably meth.

Looks like he ordered 2 fists to the face with them fries...

YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!

"the man was eating the waiter", really? horrific.

 

[Addendum]

If you can get close enough to punch a zombie and it hasn't bitten off a chunk of you, it's not a zombie

 

[Timstuff]

When it comes to zombies, you can't take any chances. Although this sounds like a garden variety idiot, seeing as he thought the best way to deal with a zombie was to punch it in the face, putting his hand within perfect biting range.

Unfortunately he's just as likely to kill survivors as he is the actual zombies.

That's actually just a racial stereotype. Zombies are actually pretty decent people on average.
