Politics The Fake Human Cost Of Fake Disasters

Posted by Scott Moore on Tue, Oct 16 at 2:02 PM

Whoa! Grisly!

That’s the only word I can use to describe the B-grade horror movie makeup that someone applied to the “victims” of the TOPOFF fake dirty bomb exercise. Shortly after noon, the first load of patients were hauled in to OHSU’s emergency center, where they were hosed off in a big blue tent in the parking lot, triaged, and then carted in to the entrance of the ER.

By 1pm, only five patients had been brought to OHSU—there are reportedly more at other facilities like Legacy. At least one, possibly two, of the OHSU patients died—one croaked in the entrance to the ER and laid still with a sheet over him for at least 10 minutes. One of the actors in the drama should be familiar to anyone who spends time around city hall or at protests—Teresa Teater.

Is it just me or does the bloody dude in the first picture look like Simon Pegg? Is this actually the shoot for his next movie, and we're all not in on the joke?

Will the fake families of the fake victims be filing fake malpractice suits against the fake hospital OHSU? They should.

Funny you should mention that. As I was leaving the hospital, I decided to pop into the area sectioned off for "families of the injured." It was a large room filled with chairs and tables, a sign-in sheet, and three very friendly employees. But no "families of the injured."

I did, however, get offered a cookie and a bottle of water, which I declined. Perhaps if I'd been a fake reporter...

Please can anyone help me? I am looking for my fake son. He was in that fake bomb blast and no one has heard from him since (or before). I've fake called all the hospitals in the area to no avail. I'd really like to fake hear from him. If I don't, his fake blood is on the hands of the Portland Office of Emergency Management!

Is the guy on the bottom going to weld that baby?

Happy Halloween!

Is the guy on the bottom going to weld that baby?

No, he's just afraid of the splatter.

Holy crap that does look like Simon Peg!

The great news of the OHSU TopOff 4 Fake out ! the fake Fema Baby got royally abused by real OHSU staff and they lost it's car seat and gave the baby back to me stark-ass naked!!!
OHSU to cheap for a 20 cent diaper.
They never got it a fake cop to do a missing Parent s report. I found the baby on the Bus Abandoned .
The Baby's Fake parents got off the bus at Good Sam ???
So to save face and not appear wierd walking around with a naked vinyl doll,I found paper napkins in the cafe after scaring/grossing out half the cafe with my fake burns
and taped them on.

Whats scaryer is Oregon's U.S.Senator Ron Wydens wife had real twins there this morning !!!
So Senator, The cafetieria is on 5th, if you need diapers....
