Deaths barred in Italian village


Recommended Posts

ROME ? Since the start of the month it has been illegal to die in Falciano del Massico, a village of 3,700 people some 50 kilometers (30 miles) from Naples in southern Italy.

Mayor Giulio Cesare Fava issued the tongue-in-cheek decree because the village has no cemetery and it is feuding with a nearby town that has one ? creating a logistical problem about what to do with the deceased.

The mayor told newspapers that villagers are content.

"The ordinance has brought happiness," he was quoted Tuesday as saying. "Unfortunately, two elderly citizens disobeyed." :huh:

So this is how the zombie apocalypse starts. The mayor better revoke this law. If he doesn't give the dead anywhere to go, they're just going to stick around. And we don't need that.

I hope they are strict with this new law, Hanging sounds an appropriate punishment. As soon as you start letting people get away with dying who knows what will be next! Drugs and Alcohol maybe!

Better solution is to grind bodies up for fertilizer.

"It's people. Soylent Green is made out of people. They're making our food out of people. Next thing they'll be breeding us like cattle for food. You've gotta tell them. You've gotta tell them!"
