Ruth asks…
If a zombie apocalypse occurred what would be the best course of action living in a suburban area?
I’m talking realistic answers which have regard for food, shelter, sustainable life and possibly friends/family. Assume power is out and zombies will be attracted by light or loud noises and are speedy. People are infected quickly through biting obviously.
The Expert answers:
Leave. That’s the best course of action. Leave.
Given that you’re a great driver, can think on the go, and doesn’t care if you break every traffic rule on the books to get away. Even if that means running over a few people. And shooting others who attempted to car jack you, and hitting other vehicles that tried to blockade you. And yes, running from the cops.
Go out to woods, the forest, or wherever else that’s not full of people.
I live in the Los Angeles Metro, home to 13 million people. My plan is to leave. After stocking up on some goodies and picking up a few more people.
–Locally–
food-
freeze-dried, (military) MREs, canned goods, and fresh if possible
water-
those 2.5 gallon plastic tanks at stores, plus a few 55 gallon drums. Don’t need much, there’s water where we’re going
shelter-
first 3-5 days staying locally- IKEA or a local high school.
Plan-
the first couple days we get everyone groups together, acquire weapons, pool resources, and obtain supplies. Food, water, shelter, guns/ammo, munitions, vehicles, etc. Prepare for he big move out.
–Move Out–
get my group several large trucks, SUVs, 4x4s, and some nice fast cars.
Need a tanker of gas & propane too
some RVs (temporary shelter),
there are 14 known routes to safety, I make a few more once all the lead vehicles have been retrofitted for smashing things.
The route to safety averages 60 miles to the foothills, 30 more to the place in the mountains.
We’d mostly go by freeway if possible, concrete lined drainage canals, greenbelts, sidewalks, and shopping places an alternative driving surface. Worst comes to worst, we can always make it thru parks, people’s backyards/front yards, or sparely built up areas, smashing thru buildings if needed.
We’d go heavily armed, more so than regular civilians because me & my friends have contacts with the underground to provide any weapons we need.
The safe place has been checked out thoroughly, defensive plans made, local resources evaluated, basically we go out there and set up fort. There’s only one road thru it, its 2 lanes, very windy, its very defensible.
Its more than 30 miles to the nearest house or community, very remote. In the days following we’ll be bringing up solar cells and lights, and all amenities of modern life up there. Its also 5200 feet in elevation, good vantage point for the whole city below, and the road is mostly uphill, both zombies & regular people just can’t make it up there in a day or two. Without vehicles at the very least its a 3 day trip!
Up there we can farm for food, manufacture what we need with raw materials trucked up, there’s plenty of raw materials existing- stone, rocks, trees for shelter, wood for burning, big lake for water, it does snow & rain regularly so there’s water to replenish water we use.

Daniel asks…
Do you think countries like U.S and Canada should help poverty in their own countries before helping?
3rd world countries? I live in Canada and here there is tons of poverty. In my city alone there are tons of homeless people not to mention – 40 below Celsius winters. Even if you have homes here there is still lots of families in poverty here without food and sustainable places to live. Our literacy rate is horribly low for being considered 1st world a country. Does anybody agree with me?
The Expert answers:
I know. It’s absolutely retarded that we’re helping people in Africa yet we have a TON of poverty here in the united states .
