Something to think about, what would you do if there was a massive zombie outbreak across the world? For the sake of the topic you'll only be aware of the outbreak by the time zombies have entered your home town.
1. ABC / Liquor Store. Few windows/entrances/exits, so easily defensible. Usually located on the outskirts of towns around here, but still within striking distance of stores that would have food. Plenty to use for disinfectant/anathesia/sleep aid/barter. After stocking up, move to:
2. Library. Just as defensible, plenty to do, books on a variety of subjects we might need, and not likely to be everyone's first choice.
3. Weaponry: .22 pistol and rifle. Easy to use, they both use the same (very common) round, and they are relatively quiet (especially with subsonic rounds). Enough velocity to kill a zombie, but not enough to tempt me into shooting targets that are too far away to risk bothering. Up close, a large crowbar. My anti-human weaponry, should I need it, but be a plain old shotgun.
