Real Life Zombies

OK, let's say this crazy US government experiment was going on in some country that we've never head of. This experiment ends up creating tons of people who's bodies NEED to consume human brains to survive. They are completely average people exvept the only thing they can eat is human brains.

Should they be charged with murder for killing people?

I was just thinking about this. Like what if all of north america got bombed with this weird disease. (Let's face it, can you think of a better terrorist weapon???) What would we do? What do you think we'd do anyway. Would we have human slaughterhouses? How we we decide who dies to feed the rest? I mean a lot of people would have to die. Would we go to 3rd world countries and just butcher them and send packages of the brains to grocery stores here? What the hell is the use for a grocery store, all we eat are brains? I guess we'd have all sorts of flavors maybe... and methods of cooking them like bbq brains, smoked brains etc. Even if we all starved ourselves and only ate the minimum brains required I wonder how many brains per lifetime each person would have to eat. I don't think we'd have a choice besides butchering people in mega populated countries... How would we decide though? Giving money to families for each family member they send to our slaughterhouses? I guess in any situation poor people get the short end of the stick.

Maybe criminals should lose their brains? Like all criminals. I don't like the idea, but hey people have to die so that the rest of us can live, right? I guess killing random people on the street for food would still be considered murder, you'd have to get imported brain from the super market.

Discuss a world of brain eating. Remember, it's not like we WANT brains, we NEED them.

My guess is that we would create a system where those deemed "unworthy" (probably insane people or people suffering from severe mental disorders, or perhaps criminals like you've said) would serve as breeding stock and would be kept in something similar to farmhouses where they would be slaughtered as soon as their brains would attain maximum size. Their bodies would then probably be re-cycled in one way or another...

Of course, many would rather starve to death, but some would prefer to survive whatever the cost.

Oh, great reply. :)

I guess the mentally handicapped would be the first logical choice.

Do you think people would rather starve to death? I mean it would be pretty crazy and confusing to just wake up one day with the need to eat human brains. You'd get the same cravings you'd get for food, and to have such a sudden and horrific change would definitely shock people into a lot of things. I'm sure people will be starving to death, but I think most people will choose survival. It is our strongest instinct after all.

Well thanks, great subject :)

Well the first days would be total chaos of course. People would have these urges and fight them off, not knowing what the hell was happening to them. Some would crack early on and give up to their urges, so people would then understand that this was a widespread thing not only limited to themsleves and begin talking about it. There would be two main camps of course : those that would refuse to do it under any circumstance and those who would see their own survival and the survival of the human species as primordial.

From there there would probably be a second period of chaos, as more and more people, understanding that they had to eat human brains but not knowing exactly whose brains they could or should eat would start killing others right and left, probably people from the "starving" side. Then, governments would probably step in an institute some kind of temporary law stating who can and can't be killed while gradually buidling up the system I talked about in my first reply through audiences, commissions and the likes...

How about, how are we handling it in 5-10 years?

they'd have to declare some kind of martial law to control the masses while they sat in committees, we'd all have starved to death by the time the goverment gets off it's collective ass and actually achieves something...

... but then we'd have people with guns and military backing needing the same thing as the rest of us, who'd control them??

I think it would be total chaos until there were very few of us left, kind of like a 28 Days Later scenario

Is that a good enuff answer MD?:p
:) I'd really rather have the government pay people to risk their lives to get these brains in those countries rather then risk my own life though.

Also I forgot to mention that the disease is not contagious and can't be passed down to our children. So scratch that thing about the grocery stores only stocking brains, but I mean they'd have to have a lot of readily available brains to eat. We would heavily outnumber the normies and being the overwhelming majority we'd pretty much need to be catered to.
