An idle scientist's mind is truly a Devil's playground. You should see some of the chit we do/did in the lab when we're bored. I've been a part of about every silly human lab trick shown on The Big Bang Theory and many shown on Myth Busters too!!

Alex Jones Says He's Considering Eating Neighbors If COVID-19 Lockdown Continues

‘I’m ready to hang ’em up and gut ’em and skin ’em,” the InfoWars conspiracy theorist said of his neighbors.

www.yahoo.com

If COVID-19 shutdowns continue, he said, he has “extrapolated this out” and may have to resort to drastic and disgusting methods of survival.

“I’ll admit it. I will eat my neighbors,” Jones said, predicting a dystopian future plagued by food shortages.

“I won’t have to for a few years ’cause I got food and stuff ― but I’m literally looking at my neighbors now and going, ’I’m ready to hang ’em up and gut ’em and skin ’em. My daughters aren’t starving to death. I will eat my neighbors. ... I will.”

Although Jones’ admission could make neighborhood watch meetings awkward, he said he plans on gobbling “globalists” who imposed the lockdowns first.

“You think I like sizing up my neighbor?!” Jones bellowed. “I’m gonna haul him up by a chain and chop his ass up! I’ll do it! My children aren’t going hungry! I’ll eat your ass! And that’s what I want the globalists to know — I will eat your ass first!”

If you actually looked at the article you would have seen that is was from the Huffington Post. Yahoo rarely generates its own news but rather "borrows it" from other sources & references that either at the top pf the article or at the bottom.

Forbes is also carrying the story here as are several others.

You want it straight from the "horse's mouth" so to speak? Well that's right below.


Thought you said you don't read or watch the news BTW?
