If your family turned into zombies could you shoot them?

I don't think I could. At the moment I don't know if I would even have a courage to fire if an evil mass murderer was standing in front of me. I suppose I would if put in that life or death circumstance, but to shoot someone I loved to save myself? I don't think so. I think I would be too paralysed with fear anyway.

Haha such a good question Jennifer! To be honest I'm not sure. I don't like my chances of surviving the zombie apocalypse, regardless of how many zombie films and tv shows I watch. So maybe I'm the one my family will need to consider putting down. ;)

Great Question especially with the Walking Dead TV Episode and other zombie attractions. You are always left with the thought of - what happens there is a cure? I guess the answer would be - if I survived I would take care of myself and those that survived with me. But to be honest, the thought of me surviving and not them is heart breaking. Not sure if I could handle that!

very good situation created by question but still when you think about humanity and you know he/she is not any more your family member then get to gather your courage and shoot them to save yourself and others
note :- Please ignore if there is any mistakes

Hahaha. I love this question. To be honest I think they'd eat me first as I'd be the naive one trying to negotiate and reason with my zombie family. I'd be thinking that I could get through to them and they'd be thinking of gobbling on my brains. I don't think I'd fare well.

I don't know if I could either. I think my best strategy in the event of a zombie uprising would be to run away. In the meantime that gives me an incentive to get fit.

Interesting question. Have to think further about that one. It is a real test of how much love you have for your family when it really happens.

Oh my gosh, get out of my head! I think about this all the time! Ultimately my answer is... it would depend on the family members in question. There are a few there that I wouldn't have a problem shooting... if they became zombies, of course!

haha reminds me of Walking Dead , I was just watching it yesterday. I really am not sure...I probably wouldn't have survived to make such a decision.

I'd lock them in the barn, in case there was a cure. I have, however, told my son to kill me, should I turn. In case I eat him.

No.!

No I don't think I could do it although it would likely be more humane for them.

I would surround myself with garlic and crosses. Ha ha

I would really want to do the mercy killing thing . . . but I fear I would find it very difficult. I can't imagine myself committing a violent act or firing a gun at somebody.

I could double tap my mother in the head without flinching. The rest I would chain up in the basement and throw them scraps.
