In Iowa City, police are searching for a man who accused another guy of being a zombie, punched him in the face, punched the victim AGAIN when he tried to call police and then ran off. It happened early Sunday at a restaurant called Panchero's. (Maybe they serve brains there?) Not sure what hurt more: Getting punched or being mistaken for a zombie. Probably the getting punched.

Pancheros is like Chipotle, but with less bloody underwear.
However, Zombies are common eaters at Pancheros.

a zombie plan put into action prematurely.

We need hate crime legislation to protect the undead. Just because their culture is very misunderstood, and most reasonable people object to their diet, the undead are people too! No one deserves to be beaten just because he/she is undead.
Zombie is a life-ist term and should not be used.

I don't know if he was a zombie or not - but just to be safe, let's all head down to the Winchester for the day.

We don't need hate crime legislation to protect the undead. Just enforce the legislation that is on the books.

Maybe they could establish DUI checkpoints at Mexican restaurants, you know: Dead Under Investigation.
If you're not a zombie, you shouldn't care.

Maybe the guy thought the other guy had had too much Cuervo, Corona and refried beans because that will make you act like a zombie.

If the guy wants to punch a guy at a Mexican place he should go to Taco Bell about 2:00 AM. He'd find plenty or does Taco Bell qualify as Mexican?

Punching a zombie is just silly. He should have stabbed him in the head with a fork.
