Yeah, you lower the chance of a criminal mugging someone getting shot.

My future husband arguing with Billy... I don't quite know where my loyalties lie in this one.

A good zombie plan would have helped the people who aren't of a certain skin color during the L.A. riots, or post Katrina New Orleans.

Plan for zombies? Take precautions before hand if you expect it, like maybe rise up some deadites using the book fo the dead or something so they can kill the zombies for you. Course, then you got the bigger problem of deadites...<_<

Hmmm, I would take everything, move up to Crypt's area with guns ect. And bring some extra fuel as well. Canada is colder, the zombieites would move even slower when frozen, and that would make them easier to kill. Then you can burn them for warmth!

fat lot you know. in canada we'd give zombies the right to their own language, schools and culture and you wouldn't be allowed to discriminate against them. forget killing them or burning them for warmth. your taxpayer dollars would go to maintaining them. and if you squealed 'cause a zombie kid bit the arm off one of your kids at school you'd be called a racist. :-)

If it lived ( so to speak ) long enough!! LOL

i havnt posted in this yet? wierd, i love zombie shit.

hop in the truck, strap the kid in, hit or avoid anything moving. get to the gun shop, bust the windows, i need 9mm pistols and 3 rifles, one accurate w/ scope and 2 capable of putting down excessive fire. bust the army/navy store window, mre's, camp stoves, canteens, field knife, and clothes. hit market and get canned foods. strong arm a gas station steal as much food and gas as i can. keep moving and kill.

id probaly take an m-14 scoped, an ak-74, and a rod gun or a shotgun cut down to about 20 inches, a 1911a1 .45 and a baby beretta

id like a benalli cut down to about 24 inches, in a pinch an ole' scatter gun double barrel, you aint even gotta aim.

And you expect to just leisurely stroll into all those places? LOLOLOL you haven't watched many zombie films. You should buy all that shit and store it in a SHTF bag so that when the shit comes down you toss the bag, the kid and the weapons in the car and head for the country. WHile everyone is looking for food and weapons, you would already have it packed up and ready to go.

I always wondered, though: smart idea to stay in one place, or would it be better to move around every few days? I mean, yeah, you'd have weaponry, and food (and hopefully clean water) but they will surround you en masse.....

Smarter to stay or leave?

Depends on where you are, if youre somewhere secure you stay, if youre wide open you move.

Not true at all. Laws against the possession of firearms only hold up to honest citizens. Criminals do not follow the law and thusly any laws against the possession of firearms do not affect them.
One thing alot of people overlook is that criminals are labeled such because they DO NOT follow the rule of law. A gun control law only effects honest citizens NOT criminals.

I've got to disagree. A criminal would still need to purchase a gun, remembering that most crimes are carried out due to necessity, if guns were harder to come by then the price of one would increase. If someone needs to rob a store or mug someone in order to buy food or pay bills than they are far less likely to be able to afford a gun, especially if it was illegally obtained. The cost of an illegal gun in England is approximately $1000, and it' my opinion that if a criminal needed to steal in order to pay bills and buy food than he probably has better things to spend $1000 on. Such as food and bills!
I can't speak from an american perspective so I can't comment on any situation there, If americans feel safer with such easy access to guns then that's their own decision, from a british perspective I'm happy in the knowledge that, whilst there are isolated gun-related crimes, the figure would be far greater if the current gun laws an restrictions weren't in place.
I'm not going to get into american gun culture or gun laws because, quite frankly, they aren't a concern of mine.

I guess its a toss up.

Every Day muggings/rapes or sporadic once in a while shootings.

Having a gun wouldn't prevent muggings or rapes as a high percentage of these are carried out outside of the home environment. How many americans with the 'constitutional right' to bear arms actually carry guns at all times?
It's my opinion that the need to carry a weapon around at all times would constitute a breakdown in humane society. If you're saying that's how you feel living in america then I pity you, things aren't that bad where I live.
Most rapes are carried out by someone the victim knows and trusts. How would a gun be effective in this instance?

Actually MANY Americans carry guns all the time. I keep one in my cars glove box and carry it with me when im in the city. You can pity us if you like we still have less muggings etc per capita than most of England.

There is less rape and robbery when people carry guns, because a criminal never knows when a little old lady can pull a gun on him and blow his ass away. In England thats not a worry for criminals so they run wild.

As the old saying goes, an armed society is a polite society.

my zombie plan:

1. fill out zombie welfare application and mail to government

2. find an isolated feeble zombie and allow it to bite me in a manner that doesn't leave me debilitated or disfigured

3. bump off zombie that bit me

4. put on favourite kick ass leather outfit and boots

5. head for home of asshole i'd most like to tear apart and die on his doorstep

6. devour jerk and friends

7. spend rest of zombie life hanging out on zombie welfare and biting random social workers and do-gooders.

Not true. An illegal guns purchase price has nothing to do with legalities or how hard it is to legally obtain one. I was able to obtain an illegal firearm in Hawaii for self defense back in '97 for 50$. Nice little .38 with the serials scraped. Gone now mind you Utah allows for me to be 100% legal.
I bet if you went out on the streets in London and tried to obtain an illegal firearm you would find it alot easier and cheaper than you could imagine. At most I could see you paying a couple hundred pounds/euros for a .38 or small semi-auto. The going rate most anywhere for illegal arms is usually the same or less than it would cost to legally obtain one.
Remember an illegal firearm is usually burgled which means the guy selling it got it for free and everything is 100% profit




That same person could just as easily rob that store with their bare hands, a knife, a note, or a hand in the pocket. If they are going to do it they will do it irregardless of how they are armed. The mole might have an easier time digging a tunnel
