This makes a good case for having semi-auto rifles of the “assault” persuasion as self defense weapons. One 20 round clip might not be enough if you find your self in one of these ‘hatred of whitey’, racist mobs.
Maybe the “Zombie Apocalypse” has been a euphemism for something else that folks might see in our future. Hmmm?
Talking about zombie prep has always been a linguistic work-around to speak of real social dangers.
Well, yeah... that’s been an “open secret” for some time now.
One thing the “proxy” has done, though, is make people “malthink” the situation.
We’re not dealing with unthinking, shambling corpses,
but with cunning and fast moving humans.
Of course, on the other side of the coin, if they hear “boom boom boom” and several of their fellow “zombies” drop, the rest will/may scatter.
“This makes a good case for having semi-auto rifles of the “assault” persuasion as self defense weapons.”
It actually makes the case for full auto.
Also note, at the time of the writing of the Constitution, it was perfectly acceptable for private vessels to have their own cannon for fear of piracy. You could have a cannon on your farm if you wanted.
Nothing in the 2nd ammendment was ever intended to restrict the public from having inferior weaponry compared to the military.
Remember Watts? Once the Cali NG started shooting, like magic the riot was over.
These holderites are not zombies like all you cityfolks like to fear. Your life may not be worth much, but theirs has a high value to them. Riotin be jes fo fun n ah nu bickskren, not worf dyin ova.
I have always felt that the purpose of all the zombie movies is to desensitize us to the idea of killing others that we can justify because they are too different than us. It teaches us that it is nothing more than a video game with nice graphics, but no pain, no consequence, and not moral issues with which to grapple.
So many films of the genre are in the public now, that it is hard for someone not to know about it and to have seen at least some part of it,
It has entered into our language and our speech patterns.
I think the conditioning has gone well for a long time, and when the time comes to fight each other, no one will have an inner voice to tell them that violence is wrong.
People will kill each other until the fall from exhaustion.
That, I think, may be the desired goal.
Sure it would. These type of 'yutes' (to be polite) run like hell at the sight of a firearm. 95% of this mob would have fled at light speed if someone showed up with an AR type rifle and loosed a few rounds.
You are just figuring this out? Or are you just being a wiseguy?
