The others were unable to awaken him to stop his screaming, so someone hit him in the head, killing him. The Marine, who WAS NOT a participant almost cried over that incident seventy years later.

I am very happy ...People are seriously saying that? I am very happy I don't read where you're reading. Obviously they all watch "The Walking Dead" for their scenario planning and nothing else, because ONLY in a zombie apocalypse (something that is physically impossible and I'd be planning for that about as much as I'd plan for the rainbow unicorn invasion) would killing the bitten (wounded) make any sense whatsoever. <br /><br />In REAL LIFE, it's exactly as you said - it's NOT a good idea unless you want to be a merciless prick who's then fed to pigs by everyone who loved the wounded person. If someone killed one of my wounded family members and friends in a SHTF scenario, they'd die quickly and efficiently, and not just by my hand but by the hands of everyone around us. <br /><br />So anyone disagreeing with you, wherever they are (the retards), they have to know that they WILL get what's coming to them if they ever tried anything like that. I really hope they're too retarded, actually, to make it past day two of an EMP (far more likely than zombies) when they can't flip on a light switch and so go bouncing down a dark stairwell (in the process sparing all of humanity their genes forever, so a twofer).<br /><br />Some days you're better than coffee Aesop.. my eyes are open just based on my shock that there are people on this planet stupid-assed enough to advocate for shooting the wounded. Too much TV, WAY too little real life for those people. Wow. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
