    These days, it's a way to euphemize the groups one fears will be a problem, without being called out for the mortal sins of racism, classism, whatever. In fact, zombie is weirdly appropriate to the people who may be basically walking dead, if only due to their lack of preparation for a world that will no longer provide for them. I'll provide for me and mine.

    Read the book "World War Z"...it was a New York Times best seller. It actually describes a viral infection that kills folks, then reanimates them. Actually makes it sound like a plausible scenario. The CDC report was kinda tongue-in-cheek describing how certain viruses could actually start a "zombie" outbreak.

    and then there is the whole definition of "zombie" there honestly isnt much of a chance of the dead rising, but there are excellent chances for more of a 28 days later type of situation. those types of "zombies" are possible. i would suggest 28 days later and the crazies for a more realistic scenario

    I appreciate the information guys. I am now getting a kick out this zombie thing now that I'm beginning to understand the hidden truth behind it.

    There is a great national relief organization you should join. The Zombie Squad. It performs disaster relief functions, mostly natural disasters, food
    drives and many other good samaritin activites. www.zombiehunters.org


    But they are always on the lookout for zombies :shoot:

    I didn't understand the zombie thing until I read One Second After. The group that attacks the town made me realize what the whole zombie thing was about.

    I guess you havent seen my "The hardest thing about the Zombie Apocalypse is trying not to get to excited" mug. Its really turning into a subculture of sorts but preparing for such a thing is along the same lines as preparing for any type of emergency & having emergency preparations (water ,canned food ,MRE's First Aid ,ETC.) Go to the CDC web site & there is even (to be taken lightly ) Zombie Prepardness 101

    Oh, did not know that. Thanks for update.

    Do like the idea of an excuse to get another gun though.

    Can someone please explain the whole zombie thing going on in the shooting world? There are zombie targets, Ka-Bar has a new line of Zombie-Killer knives, Para-Ordnance introduced their new rifle as a zombie killer, and Guns & Ammo magazine recently had an article entitled "Ten Things You Probably Didn't Know About Zombies". I just don't get it.

    Its kinda like a jeep thing. If you never had one then you wouldn't understand.

    Zombies are the new vampires. You should really check out the series "The Walking Dead" on AMC. It is on Sunday nights at 9. The bad thing is, if you start now you would be in the middle of the 2nd season and you really need to see it all from the start, but still worth checking out if you get a chance.:rockwoot:

    And remember rule #1 is cardio. ;)
