which I agree, I believe humans would continue to exist but like the games/movies  mentioned above but the global population would be decimated, TLOU and Walking dead are probably the best depictions of this. not everyone one has guns and gask masks, people hide their bites/loves ones refuse to kill their love ones, goverment upheavel.(or none at all)

weaponry can only so much to contain/control the infected, gun/tanks/airplanes need constant maintenance...zombies to not


Then your argument is different now. It's more that the humans can't bring themselves to really crush the zombie opposition because of morality and priorities. The military has to take care of the population etc. and doesn't really have the manpower to do that and battle zombies at the same time.

In that case, you're correct. However, I'm talking about the war itself, in that humans will decimate zombies in a full scale war, quite easily. Don't speak of maintenance as if it completely disables the military. Jesus, read up on WW2. The ships and planes kept bombing the same islands over and over again for weeks at a time without stopping. Where's the "maintenance" there? And technology now is light years ahead of what it was back then. Airdrops can be done daily for new bombs and bullets and even vehicles. I don't see where you get this notion that we "can't fight".

hey there man,  it's all in good fun :)

anyway it I don't see how my arguement has changed, yes morals and priorites will play apart, but the zombie outbreak would be the main catastrophe, it's like it is just not about weapons, morality and priorites also played the part like how France and GB(well the whole League of Nations) ignored Italy an Germany and the  biuld up their armies and the taking over of land in africa; one tends to think of their own before helping other.(also they suffered the greater losses out of WWI) even though they fighting against germany in WWI, the US still gave germany bonds in order to rebuild their country. 

 while talking about WW2 and it's pretty clare the reason they were able to continuously bomb those islands(I'm guessing we're talking about the japanese islands at this point) was because they had a designated target and they were as you said islands, try covering the mass of the North America and even bigger Europe/Asia, it's too big to be covered in designated strikes; and as mentioned in TLOU/WD it's the very first thing they tried  and yet the outbreak still persisted, how can one tend to fend off a growing infection if they're bombing their own cities and people to prevent that said infection. even if we added all military personel in the world they wouldn't even equal 1 percent of the human population.


It is all in good fun :P

My whole argument centers around the fact that zombies aren't smart. They're mindless bodies that can be drawn into one area and destroyed. Just tie a piece of meat to a robotic drone and have it run around in circles. Then when the zombies start to swarm around it, drop some shells all over the place. This tactic can be easily done over and over again because zombies can't think and can't digest the fact that they're being tricked. Factor that into the equation and you'll see that it's really so easy for humans to win.
