Evil Princess and I just got home from a long trip in time to catch the latest episode of \u201cThe Walking Dead.\u201d\u00a0 If I was to take this test question \u2026<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201c\u2019The Walking Dead\u2019 is:<\/p>\n
\u201cA: A television fantasy.<\/p>\n
\u201cB: A documentary.<\/p>\n
\u201cC: A training film.\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u2026My answer would still be \u201cA.\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
But it\u2019s always fun to look at it as \u201cC.\u201d\u00a0 If a plague of zombies overtook society, what would we arm ourselves with?\u00a0 I can tell you that the Darrel character, who tackles it for the most part with a crossbow, is a better man than me.\u00a0 Something like a Ruger 10\/22 semiautomatic rifle would have been my first thought: if you need brain shots to do the job anyway, the .22 seems logical: you can get reliable 25 to 50 round magazines for it and still have something light and handy for constant carry, and LOTS of those teeny little cartridges on your person.\u00a0 But then you start thinking about how often .22 Long Rifle rounds have been known to ricochet off human skulls that haven\u2019t been rotted soft, and the .22\u2019s well known impotence against living bad guys\u2026<\/p>\n
We had several handguns with us in the vehicle, and because we had just shot a Glock match that finished up our two-class tour, a good bit left of the thousand-plus 9mm rounds and assorted .45 ACP, 10mm, and .380 ammo we\u2019d started out with.\u00a0 Would have been a good start.<\/p>\n
But, just for the hell of it, if \u201cWalking Dead\u201d became \u201cB: A documentary,\u201d what would YOU arm yourself with?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
