A lawyer running for election in the US Senate has admitted slaughtering a goat and drinking its blood.
The 32-year-old lawyer, who has changed his name to Augustus Sol Invictus (that's Latin for 'majestic unconquered sun'), is campaigning to become a senator in Florida for the Libertarian Party. The exciting news that he sacrificed a goat was revealed by the party's Florida chairman, Adrian Wyllie, as he resigned his position and accused Invictus of seeking to start a civil war.
Invictus first came to RollOnFriday's attention in 2013 when he sent a superb email addressed to "the Grey World of Man" in which he resigned not only from his firm but also from civilisation itself. Inviting comparisons with Lord Harley, he boasted that he was a "genius" with "a Cadillac & a poodle, multiple computers & a personal library". Informing humankind that "your game no longer holds any interest for me", he said he was going to "disappear into the Wilderness" and then return "bearing Revolution" or not at all.
It has now emerged that Invictus walked from Central Florida into the Mojave desert where he spent a week fasting and praying, then killed a goat and drank its blood. "I did sacrifice a goat", he told the Associated Press, thereby clearing up any remaining confusion on the point. "I sacrificed an animal to the God of the wilderness. I know that's probably a quibble in the mind of most Americans".
In a statement posted on facebook, Invictus said he would not respond to Wyllie's accusations, "for the same reason I did not respond in grade school when little boys would call me “meany face” and “watermelonhead".
He then responded anyway, claiming that killing the goat was in keeping with his pagan religion and denying that he wanted to incite a war. "I don't think I'm the only person who sees a cataclysm coming" he added.
