View Full Version : Zombies and the US gov
okay be specticle all you want about zombies....but think about it, if zombies started to happen do you think the goverment would actually give us fair warning, i think not because that would cause the most accounted suicide/panic riots ever......EVER!!! the goverment, just to ensure the safety of a few jewish politicians, would gate the large cities and kill anyone trying to get out....human or zombie, they just wouldn't take that chance....it would turn into martial law in the middle of cities....only the guys with the guns would control things. Also would we ever win?.....would it even be possible to win knowing that every time they get one of you, they gain a member.....and the world has like 6 billion people in it and my guess would be at least 5.5 billion would die before people began to gather and defend themselves really good......so for every human there would be 11 zombies.......and all they have to do is bite you and they grow larger.....So could humans actually survive a zombie outbreak???
of course we could survive, 'cause dead people can't physically be alive. okay, that sounded weird, but what I meant was, they've started decomposing, they don't have the chemicals and all that required to live. their enzymes have probably either denatured or just gone, their heart won't start again, the blood has congealed, their brain just won't work.
so yeah, we ain't gonna get attacked by zombies.
but they do make good film villains... mmm shaun of the dead.
and why have I got such a lack of capital letters in this post?

If zombies now attack us walton you are going to get such a damn good kicking for tempting fate :P
Ithink we could because all it would take would be to gets lots of sharp stabby things and stuff.... im guessing in real life they wouldn't have the super strength they do in the movies ^_^

Of course we could survive. You just need to walk nonchalantly and calmly away while they struggle to keep up. Zombies are SLOW.
would it even be possible to win knowing that every time they get one of you, they gain a member
Nope, every time they get someone that person is almost always too torn up and eaten to then get back up and be a zombie.
nd the world has like 6 billion people in it and my guess would be at least 5.5 billion would die before people began to gather and defend themselves really good
a) closer to 7 or 8 billion now
b) That'd only happen if everyone just stood very very still for a long time and didn't e.g. walk calmly away as the zombies crawl towards them

You could always take the "ARGH! I'M GONNA DIE" route, thus having people point guns at you and shooting you. :P
At the same time, yes...Zombies have neither the speed or knowledge to trick a human into dying. You'd either have to be wounded, elderly, near-dead, stupid or willing to die in order for a zombie or even a zombie horde to kill you...and even then you'd be lucky to get back up as an undead lol.
Or narcoleptic.
They're pretty screwed...
Well, we could make a wall of charvs to protect ourselves from the zombies, and after that wall has been eaten through, we'll just throw bling at them.
Dale Anthony
12-11-2005, 15:08
We could also...stand outside Galaxy Radio Station's main office, get all the zombies/charvs/bling and Top of the Range Stereo-Car Modified Bangers and throw a stick of dynamite, a semtec bomb and a loaf of bread in to make sure they all blow up and are wiped from the Earth, like Fairy Liquid gets rid of grime. :D

Well, the Zombie thing is ulimately impossible if we try and stop it from happening. Even if like, 80% of the world population turned to Zombies, (which could happen, mind you) I doubt they'd be able to wipe out the rest of us if they're the regular, mindless, slow zombies we've all grown to know and love.
But about the us-becoming-zombies thing, I think it could happen. It kinda' depends on the way we're turned into Zombies.
1. Doctors could purposely administer shots of some kind of zombie thing. :D
2. The government could secretly release some kind of airborne virus hellbent on infecting each and every single living thing.
3. We just let one experimented-on Zombie into a city and see what happens. XD
I think the second one could happen. (I'm not crazy!) After all, if they're the way they work in the Resident Evil movies(the infection kills you slowly, and then you die and turn into a zombie), then yeah, the zombie population could grow pretty fast. XD
Think about it, a person dies like, every five seconds or whatever, right? And a person is born like, every second, right? So think about, any human being(whether they be a toddler, or an old lady) is a potential Zombie recruit, and with every second, another human is born, adding another eventual zombie to the crowd, and with every five seconds,(which'll probably become a shorter and shorter number after a while) a human dies and turns into a zombie, aiding the annihilation of the human race.
Pretty ironic, isn't it?

The RE films were absolute crap :P
Anyway, RE zombies don't actually count because they're still alive
night of the living dead 1960's edition was the best and first undead horror movie and the zombies were dead and came back from a satellite that exploded and caused massive amounts of radiation to bring back the dead but ony the dead above ground and causing a massive slew of zombies but the only defect of the mvie is the zombies were a tad bit smart like breaking windows with bricks and killing there un dead mother with a gardening shovel.
but if you saw the 80's movei day of the dead it explained zombies were slow a but if you waited to long there would too many in the world to wipe out. and the reason they ate people is a simple instictive part of the brain (which we to thank dinosaurs and other prehistoric creatures for) they didnt fell hungry the were only on instinct eat to survive kill to eat. but there is a possibility of training them like teaching a dog basically reward them when they do something samrt and human like, like listening to music by putting the headphones over your ears or reading a book or pulling a shaver over your dead skin and thus trying to teach them and talk and not eat humans.

Only solution to zombies is a big gun or a sharp blade. But fortunately, you don't have to be very fast. You could even pause for a packed lunch between zombies.
you guys are underestimated the zombies speed, sure there slow but eventually humans get tired....we need to sleep as well....although a zombie is slow he can continue to walk as long as he wants........Also about the super strenth....it might happen because they wouldnt feel pain like that so a bunch of them trying to get you at once, and they all just keep trying until there numbers grow to unstoppable odds..............Zombies!!!!!
Zombies are a very strange phenomenon. I do not know wether we would survive or not. BUT!! I will be ready with my weapons...

Yes and one of the few groups of people I suggested would be killed by zombies are the stupid ones. If you're tired in modern times and you're out on the street, you don't exactly pick the road as a bed do you? It's hardly very safe. So why the hell, if the world was full of zombies and you were tired would you get turned into one, if you were clever enough to pick a place they'd not find you for awhile? Huh!? :P
heel if zombies did happen none would care it would still be gang violence and shark attacks that make it to the news.

12-11-2005, 20:15
I wouldn't know. I think anything with a large amount of interest would get into the news and you know what people are like about the smallest but most bizarre things. They like it. It's new and it's unoriginal (minus in the movies). I think more than enough people would be interested in the news of such creatures.
But nevertheless, zombie attacks would not halt gang violence from actually taking place.
i found this funny thing off the internet.
most likely to survive a zombie attack
redneck
weapon:shotgun
house:cabin
survival :medium
farmer
weapon: pitchfork,shot gun,sythe,and a tractor
house: reg house
surviavl:high
civillian
weapon:cellphone and whatevers lying around.
house:various
survival:low
and etc its a stupid zombie net game people always choose farmers or soldier all the time.
Well, okay maybe not my house. I'd go to a gun shop or something. And be where I could have a mass amount of ammunition. :)
Dale Anthony
12-11-2005, 20:47
I wouldn't really be so bothered about cutting them up. I'd like to save lives in that situation and be somewhere safe but I'd only really consider slaughtering them if they'd killed someone I cared about...and considering the way we're talking, that's likely to be the case...

i highly doubt your going to here a new reporter says,"Today's top news, another gang related crime was comitted in [insert city of choice here], oh and on a side note, zombies are attacking. Tune in at [insert time of choice] for more info on the shark attack". I'm pretty sure zombies are more important than gang related crimes which happen all the time.
well i say im taking all my guns and im going to wal-mart....then i clear out the zombies inside and i close, lock and metal gate shut all the doors, then ill have more guns, food , and clothing and stuff for a long time. also i would then have video games if i got bored.

Exercise Machines? Come on...essential to living, surely! :P
and then when we get really bored we can open a door and shove shooping carts loaded with heavy bird food or something into some zombies to watch them fall down.....also ive always wanted to hit a zombie in the head with a baseball bat....

You could see if Zombies conduct electricity...ahem.
Anyways, I definitely believe we could outlast a zombie invasion, but I'm often optimistic with situations like that...which needless to say is pointless unless George Bush has a Zeppelin filled with Biohazard Gas ready to drop over most of the Northern Hemisphere. XD
Well really, considering zombies are just made-up things you don't know how fast they can walk or even if they can, because really even if someone had a magic potion to raise the dead people in graves, I really doubt he'd get far with some bones with a bit of skin hanging off.
Most effective way would be to do what the queen did in resident evil, that way you'd pretty much end up crapping yourself. But I really doubt companies these days are 'that' corrupt to kill off their employees because of an outbreak of a deadly virus XD.
Ignoring the fact police or whoever would destroy these zombies before it reached an unstable level, unless it happened in a third world country and they all turned to zombies then like crossed the ocean, a year later B00M england is under attack by starving zombies. That my freinds, will be the last day of your life.

Given decomposition of skeletal muscles, my guess would be that they'd be slower than a large fat man who isn't heading towards the fridge.

Ha ha ha! I liked that explanation lol. Well, I'd have thought they'd be reasonably slow anyways. Just with the way their brain...well...doesn't work and the fact it's emotions that motivate them.

Well, this might be a bit far-fetched, (what am I thinking, this whole thread is far-fetched, XD) but what if the way they were turned into zombies prevented the decay of their bodies? With like, some weird injection-y type thing?! :confused: [Twilight Zone Music]
Allright, I sound like a dumbass. XD
DAMMIT, I Just edited tharricks and triggers post by accident not use to the edit button being there XD
Anywayz, as I said
If the person died then turned shortly after they wouldnt of decayed making them able to walker faster and maybe run.
Tharrick
13-11-2005, 13:50
Trig, then you're looking at actually preserving the body, which would actually make it harder for them to move anyway
Kaede, since decomposition happens straight away, there'd always be some loss in motility. Also, nerves decompose fairly quickly, so response signals from the brain would take much longer to occur - somewhere like the difference in responses between a drunk man and a sober one.
REALITY CHECK
zombies do not exist and never will.
in my opinion, this discussion is highly pointless.

But highly entertaining!
you're free to have your opinion, and i'm free to have mine
That you are, so...if you no longer wish to discuss with us, visit another thread? :)
But on the topic, but which zombies are we talking about here? Like Dawn of the Dead zombies? Shaun Of The Dead zombies? Resident Evil zombies? Because, like...Resident Evil zombies are a virus which kind of regenerates things I suppose to make them better zombies...? And um, Dawn of the Dead zombies were fast and evil...scary buggers...
Katie, if you don't like what people are talking about, don't post in here. What your doing is classed as spam. Your post has nothing to do with the topic, I think we all -know- Zombies don't exist and never will, but really we are allowed to talk about what we want.
@Tharrick: I see, but I think if someone was clever enough to raise the dead, they'd be clever enough to give it atleast some of the stuff a human has, don't you? =/
Tharrick
13-11-2005, 18:14
Well, yeah, but they'd have to rebuild all the neural pathways and completely regenerate the entire body... which would be resurrection rather than zombie-making.

zombies could only be an improvement XD XD XD lol
but really,
they can lung at u +
they have no fear of dieing so they will run un hindered towards their food.
what if the zombie virus also had a side affect of extremely fast regeneration....so they are like all back together and all thier organs and stuff are like even stronger then ours.....
Then I think we would be screwed. We take over Wal-Mart, grab all the guns, ammo, and canned food/bottled water we can and head for the hills. or my house.
Dale Anthony
14-11-2005, 01:53
RIGHT! That's it!
The next person to suggest hiding in Wal-Mart or their home against a zombie invasion when there's a PERFECTLY good Military Base pretty close is gonna be forced to turn into one of those decaying rotten things! XD
yeah but if you go to a military base and the soldiers are alive then they might just shoot us to make sure we dont get in and not even check if we are infected......i dont want to be blown away at a gate......

ok first a some freaky news I just found
'There has been a small outbreak of "zombism" in a small town near the border of Laos in North-Eastern Cambodia. The culprit was discovered to be mosquitoes native to that region carrying a new strain of Malaria which thus far has a 100 percent mortality rating killing victims in fewer than 2 days. After death, this virus is able to restart the heart of it’s victim for up to two hours after the initial demise of the person where the individual behaves in extremely violent ways from what is believe to be a combination of brain damage and a chemical released into blood during "resurrection." Cambodian officials say that the outbreak has been contained and the public has no need to worry' – That's a relief, then. From the BBC 1 apirl 2005.

Dunno if anyone mentioned this, but, do you relize that zombies are not those things that you find in movies/games like in Resident Evil, Dawn of The Dead, and countless of other titles that involve the flesh eating zombies?
Unless one day this actually happens and I'm totally wrong where I have become a person against my theory and stock up on shells, magazines, grenades and rockets.

Y'see, people THINK it was a dead dog. If you actually read the article, and are a scientist, you'd know that the dog was actually alive the whole time. They froze it or chemically treated it, I can't remember which now, to slow the metabolism right down. They then replaced the blood slowly with a saline solution. When they wanted to bring the dog back, they reinjected the blood.
This is actually suspended animation, not resurrection

Looks like we have our little scientist.
I actually thought it was something about dead dogs...
I agree about the government....
i just thought the best place to hide from zombies would be a cruise ship or the mall reasons why
cruise ship: middle of ocean with a few golf clubs guns and a metal pole most zombies on the boat should be eleminated when the first one appears.
mall: guns ammo food water steel doors books clothes bathrooms video games.
Tharrick
10-12-2005, 04:16
Military base: Food, guns, ammo, SOLDIERS, games, books
Gareths house or current place of residence at the time of zombie attack: pointy things, GARETH, VIOLENCE.
'nuff said
just thought of somehing about you get bit by a zomb you become one but mostly the zombie will eat so much of you that you cant move when you become a zombie because youll have lost all muscle tissue basically gone in a stomach and the only way you can get bit once if youre running and a zombie grabs and takes a bite and you push it away and the with9in a few hours your a functioning member of society the zombie society.
