When we get in there will be no doubt zombies in there. We'll Kill anyone who has a bite. Just to make sure they aren't lying we will have them strip down butt ass naked and check them I dont effin care. Then we will take anything we can and barricade the glass doors and such and block off all the normal doors with anything we can find. Finally, we will live and survive in the store forever with all the food and games we could ask for.
Load my guns.. Oh wait, thats how I usually keep them...
Seriously though, the movies make zombies seem like a much bigger threat than they really are. A person infected with rabies exhibits all of the characteristics of a zombie (aggression, you turn into one if bitten etc.) and they have hardly overrun society. A platoon of about 30 soldiers or marines could easily take 1,000+ zombies at a time with no casualties, plus we have fancy things like napalm air strikes. I would probably just wait it out.
I hope all you gun-toters have stocked up on large-caliber weapons that blow holes as large as footballs (real footballs) in a person, the only vulnerable part of a zombie is its head, you either need to destroy at least 2/3rds of the brain or sever it from the body to stop a zombie for good. Napalm... unless you can burn them to ash within a matter of seconds you'll only be fighting a burning zombie, and good luck with that. No, what you need is a weapon that's either good for crushing skulls or removing body parts (in this case: heads).

It's also the reason why according to movies, the most likely place to suffer zombie-outbreaks is the US.
I'll be relaxing as I watch the newsreports about how the USA is overrun by zombies.

Duane: You know what they say about love and war.
Tim: Yes, one involves a lot of physical and psychological pain, and the other one's war.

The question is, what type of zombie are they? If they are the real-world zombie (The "actual zombie disease" is from the Brazilian Rainforest, and messes with your mind heavily) then they should be easy to deal with. But not if they suprise you.
If they are the Hatian Zombie, then they will be simple to knock off.
But if they are some new version, then we will have problems. Simply put, a threat like this has never before reared its ugly head, so it'll be a minute until our military organizes against our own citizens. It could be, potentially, too late. Just depends on the 'virus' itself. Whos infected, when, and what does the 'virus' do exactly?
Anyone bitten going to an armory or base or whatever, would be quarintined. The question is, whould they be put together?

Also, a prion disease called Kuru is spread by eating brains. It's fun.

It might be illegal to use that weapon without a guitar solo to back you up.
That might well be an appropriate ranged weapon to deal with zombies, and no non-zombified human could enforce anything against you as long as you hold it, the requirement of a guitar solo is therefor moot. It also looks sturdy enough to smash in a head with so it's usable even after you've run out of ammo. Very good choice, Snorri.

It is quite the boomstick.

Verry depressing that no one knows how to survive here.
Since we dont expect any zombie attack the upcomeing days go to Walmart and buy Lots of stuff. Then buy a rocket. And once zombie attacks, take rocket fly to moon and your alive. Easy as well.
In short term you stock up today, and get a better tommorow.
a lot of what you need to do depends on the type of zombie we're dealing with. are we talking virus-infected bloodthirsty maniacs? or brainwashed lunatics hungry for flesh? has a rift from hell opened up, sending out demons that turn corpses into zombies, or are the zombies a result of a nuclear experiment gone wrong? are the zombies still 'alive' or are they truly 'walking dead'? can they run, or just shuffle along at a stumbling walk? can they swim? do they need to eat/breath to survive, or can they go on forever powered by unholy energies? can they reproduce? do they have any form of intelligence, or are they essentially hungry vegetables on legs? how strong are they; are they supernaturally powerful, or do they grow weak as the days go by during which they don't eat? if it's a disease, is it airborn, or strictly transmitted through a bite, or contact with zombie blood?
these questions and more must you answer before making an educated decision as to how to act
My Plan:
Step 1) Put on bulky clothing, preferibly bullet proof vest, anything thick
Step 2) Gather large group of survivors
Step 3) When i see zombies, if they chase me i will run into croud of people
Step 4) I repeat process till I'm out of town, in either the middle of the desert, coastline, mountains, or missle silo

Zactly. I have several plans, each for a different version of zombie. Non of which I would dare to share with anyone over the web. Competition is bad for survival.
