Practicing DHS Drills Using Zombie Attacks - Really?


Is it possible that we've taken the zombie attack theme too far? Just because governments in Brazil, Mexico, and other nations have had giant zombie drills to practice for natural disasters or pandemic flu's, doesn't mean we need to copy that strategy here. It may seem funny, cool, or trendy, but it's time that we think a little deeper on all this. Okay so let's talk.

Homeland Security News had an interesting article posted on their website on September 19, 2012 titled; "First responders train to deal with a new threat: zombie attack," which stated; "A company specializing in training military units, federal, and state agencies in security, force protection, emergency response, and disaster management, has a new threat incorporated into its disaster-crisis scenario, which is part of the firm's annual counterterrorism summit in San Diego: a zombie attack."

This whole Zombie'ism is a way to dehumanize the mass mobs of humanity, not that someone doesn't need to put an end to rioting violence, but this whole zombie theme is just so over played, it's morbid, and pathetically childish, and might I suggest that it is the Department of Homeland Security which needs to grow up a little? It might be fun to pander to the masses, and compete with Hollywood for entertainment value, it also might be great to film some of that footage which will later be used in major movies, merely for PR sake.

However, I highly disapprove of all this because it sends the wrong message. It seems to suggest that it is okay to eliminate human beings which have been exposed to a virus, bacteria, or even a future bio weapon. What happens when the powers that be somehow decided there are too many mouths to feed, that socialism hasn't worked in collapsed global economies, and we just have to get rid of a few more people?

This is not the right way to go, and no I am not a conspiracy theorist, nor am I trying to play up all the FEMA camps which have been purported popping up around the country, it's just that I study history, and often in history when communist and socialist governments have grown so large, they no longer needs the people, not to mention that they can't afford to feed them anyway, therefore people need to be eliminated. Historically this is what these types of governments have done.

Unfortunately, that goes against everything we stand for in the United States of America, we are better than that, and if other nations wish to treat their populations this way, we should be against that as well. Perhaps we might like to think it through a little, and understand that we are dehumanizing large groups of people, and dismissing the value of humanity overall in even having or practicing such DHS drills.

It's really not funny, and although it might have entertainment value to make the news media, I'd rather have a DHS that protects the American people than one which was popular with Hollywood, or those that seem to love the science fiction zombie thriller genre. Indeed I hope you will please consider all this and think on it because I have always known that those that play around on social networks need to grow up, but now it appears that they've infiltrated our government and now it's time for government to grow up too.
