ardillacid Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 No one in open mic took me seriously I was reading a review of Dawn of the dead and they frowned on the practice of killing potential zombies. what do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laudate_Dominum Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 I would say quarantine them. We don't lynch and slay people who contract other diseases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest T-Bone Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 It is immoral to kill any person (except in war, self-defence, or (in some cases) the death penalty) zombie, potential zombie, or normal person. Note: In Shawn of the Dead, after the intial break-down, the zombies could lead somewhat normal, if unproducative lives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

philothea Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 I think the state could probably sanction pre-emptive pre-zombie killings. As an individual, I don't think we have the right even to kill zombie-virus infected individuals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't attack until they actually become zombies. I don't think it's self defense until they're actually zombified and going for your brain.

tojo Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 Not until they become Zombies. Maybe you could break their leg beforehand so they would be easily killed after they become Zombified. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the zombies come, I personally intend to emit loud girly screams. I fully expect you men to rush forth and protect all us screaming girls.
