Everyone knows that you have to cut a zombie's head off...

Oh please.  This is why you are part of the 99% who get culled for thinking edged weapon wrasslin' is somehow equal to 4 grams of lead moving 3,000 feet per second.  I was a Dog Brother back in the day.  I assure you they do not compare.

I recommend you adopt the AGW/Peak Oil version or the Warrior Jesus version.

Anyone who prepares for zombies with guns is not only a threat to themselves but a threat to me as well.

Everyone knows that you have to cut a zombie's head off, so by shooting them and them staying alive to end up biting you and turning you into a zombie only adds to my effort in cutting off heads.

So please, buy a machete or an axe. Save us both the hassle.
Shotgun. Head go bye-bye.

But I also have a machete. (It never runs out of bullets.) I have a chainsaw, too, but that's not intended for zombie defense. that's for bush clearing. I suppose it could be pressed into service if need be.

People who have never seen anarchy seem to like the idea. Anyone who lived in a war zone, for example, are not so nostalgic.

Anarchy = No rulers.

Chaos = Everybody trying to be a ruler.

Anarchy ≠ Chaos.
The problem i see is that without rulers a power vacuum is created. Someone will step into that void and take advantage of it. Can anarchy sustain?

Without rapists a rape vacuum is created. Can a rape-free environment sustain?

"power vacuum" is a non-issue. see: https://mises.org/document/2716/

I lived in a situation when government and control is very weak. I'm more uncomfortable now when government and surveillance is everywhere.

The zombie apocalypse/cosmic object impact/total collapse of society is scary to me because we will lose much of our technology. It is like losing technological advancements of Roman empire and going into middle ages. If no more computer parts are made from now, we might get only 10 to 15 years of computing. First devices that will be short supply will be hard drives soon followed by motherboards. And no health care, no mass education and scarcity of printed educational books will throw us back for hundreds of years. That is the big problem, not Obama with his sockpuppet cabinet being eaten by zombies or executed by prepper anarchists.

And it gets real fun when......

Brad Pitt has more guns or armed bodyguards then you or...
Or zombified Brad Pitt attacks and infects you! At least Marilyn Manson will not be attacked by zombies Cheesy Zombieland was a great movie!

Many people have  fantasy of how life would be after the fall of society.  The point is no matter how well you prepare there is going to be someone hungrier then you with a gun and all the time in the world.
Probably I would do OK in post apocalyptic situation because I'm not person who cares much about anybody else. It would be extremely sad if my girlfriend dies but she is not with me and never will. The collapse of internet infrastructure can be manageable by techies like me, but the electricity needed to power my computers will be a problem. I can get solar panel to charge and power laptop battery but no way for solar panel to power core2quad gaming rig with HD7970 overnight.

People love THE APOCALYPSE because your credit card debt goes away and you don't have to show up at your boring-azz job on Monday.

This is why I love zombies. When the Zombie Outbreak occurs my big investment in firearms pays off. I get to take over Brad Pitt's house and inherit his motorcycles. The number of stupid people I'm forced to deal with everyday is reduced by 99%.

And it gets real fun when......

If you are successful in stealing motorcycles, the unarmed guy with a cleverly placed steel cable in the road steals it back.

Other versions:

Warrior Jesus: Yeshua returns and puts the smack-down on evil perverts and atheists. The Ignorant rot in fiery Hell. The Enlightened go to Heaven. Could happen any minute.

Global Warming / Peak Oil: Evil polluters and fat suburbanites suffer starvation. The Enlightened assume pastoral existence in harmony with Mother Nature and barter handicrafts just like at Renaissance Faire. Student loans and mean ol' 'conservatives' go away. Is Happening Now.

2012: Features the "authenticity" of Native American "wisdom" because it's non-Christian and non-European. It's vague enough to mold into whatever you want. Unappreciated 'Cultural Creatives' get rewarded, while evil financial bullies and polluters get the smack-down. You get to enjoy psychedelic drugs if you want! December 21st, 2012

Financial Collapse: Lazy welfare cheats and fascist corporations starve. Frugal folk who eat at home, repair their own cars, and wear unfashionable clothes get to shoot the Grasshoppers who didn't prepare. Could happen any day.
