If you had stayed in school beyond age 14, you'd know the difference between "literal" and "figurative." Governor Bevin is describing FIGURATIVE Zombies.
He says "brain-eating monsters are invading the minds of our country’s youth," something any intelligent person will agree with when discussing the mass shootings, even if there is no agreement as to what those monsters are. You've just shown that you don't agree . . . so what does that say about you? The governor chooses to call these unspecified monsters "Zombies," going with an analogy everyone in our pop-culture obsessed culture can relate to.
It's a good article, albeit short, and the audio interview is even better. Too bad you didn't read beyond the headline - you might have learned something. (Ha ha! That's a joke. We all know that you aren't going to learn anything at this point.)

Kentucky Governor Blames Zombies for Mass Shootings in America
by Rolling Stone — Peter Wade
Kentucky Republican Governor Matt Bevin has a unique take on the topic of mass shootings in America. Lack of gun regulations are not to blame, the problem is… zombies?
Bevin told conservative radio talk show host Leland Conway this week that American culture rewards and celebrates death and that the brain-eating monsters are invading the minds of our country’s youth, the Louisville Courier Journal reported.
“What’s the most popular topic that seems to be in every cable television network? Television shows are all about, what? Zombies! I don’t get it … that’s what we are,” Bevin said.
Zombies are, of course, a problem according to Bevin, but let’s not forget abortion: “When a culture is surrounded by, inundated by, rewards things that celebrate death, whether it is zombies in television shows, the number of abortions… there’s a thousand justifications for why we do this.”
