The War On People: Insane Weapon

Dangerous thinking for dangerous times

In recent years, great strides have been achieved in getting acceptance for our kind among the "normal" population. People have willingly accepted us with open arms and made us part of their lives provided we meet the right requirements. The more attractive among us have become so popular that some people have even devoted entire movements, religions even, to their coming.

But one thing that can never be claimed, despite heroic attempts by a very select number of films, is that the community is accepting of Zombie-kind in the same way they are of fortunate others. Sure, they're popular figures in fiction, especially with the ratings boom for The Walking Dead, but their depiction has been anything but friendly. With the exception of perhaps Shaun of the Dead, all Zombie films end with one conclusion and one conclusion only.

And, sadly, these trends are being echoed in the real world as well. I recently brought light to the campaign of a Mr. Vermin Supreme and his position of anti-zombie policies being used to correct issues within the United States. This was not an isolated incident, with the creation of zombie strategies such as the one above, the building of zombie-proof houses and the growing trend of DIY "Zombie Proofing" for things such as your car. But now, it would seem, the cold war has gone hot.

This is the DoubleStar Zombie-X AK-47, a specially customized anti-zombie assault rifle with electric chainsaw attachment. Though it is currently a concept weapon, not yet produced for the public to purchase, a previous weapon has already been designed by the same company and released as the Zombie Slayer for $1,249.99. Their previous weapon was released so recently that the "introduction price" of $999.99 only expired as of January 31st, 2012 (yesterday). In other words, this isn't just an incidental name coined for the purposes of tongue-in-cheek marketing.

This is a product line - and we will be seeing more.

Though what they can possibly do after this is hard to tell. With the introduction of the Zombie-X they've upgraded the previous rifle's USMC Multi-purpose Bayonet with a fully functioning electric chainsaw attachment, a battery pack attached to the stock, a bio-hazard holographic sight and, according to the demonstration below, even a bottle opener for the post slaughter celebrations.



Be afraid, my friends, be very afraid.
