Humans Would Defeat Zombies in a Global Pandemic

I would like to start off by talking about how my opponent's case is based mainly on what he calls "Hollywood hype" and hypocritically says that any attacks I would bring up will be based on "Hollywood Hype." My opponent says that extreme weather will kill off zombies and any evidence stating otherwise is false. My opponent then goes on to say that real zombies would not be able to climb stairs; what's his evidence? "Well you see zombies can only climb stairs in movies so Hollywood can make some money." Yeah, I don't really see any evidence. The point to be made here, though, is that he repeatedly talks about how my possible attacks are just "Hollywood Hype" when his attacks are the ones based off of Hollywood. Let's look at his point 1 for a minute. His sub point A states that zombies are not immune to the extremities, but what he fails to realize is that they are the undead, whose bodily functions are no longer like a living humans. What this means is that there veins no longer work and that means they feel no pain as it is the veins that make the living feel pain. Since Zombies cannot feel pain they do not care if the temperature is -100F or 100F they will continue to do what they do (which btw is not eat, more on that later). http://zombie.wikia.com... His sub point B says that they cannot climb stairs, but why? He unfortunately offers no reason. Let's look at the facts for a second: they have legs and hands. If anything the zombies mind is at the intelligence level of an animal. Animals realize that they can lift their legs up and down to climb, why not zombies? The best part is zombies even have opposable thumbs which would allow them to learn to open doors as well. So reason tells us that at minimum zombies would learn to "walk" on all fours' if nothing else. His sub point C says they cannot swim, why? Once again: no reason. The simple fact is that since zombies are dead they do not need air to live which will allow them to able to breathe underwater and possible swim after they realize that by moving their hands a certain way they can keep afloat. His second sub point states that rednecks, street gangs and military veterans will kill the zombies; that's all great but humans do get tired and they'll eventually have to rest. This resting period leaves a great time for the zombies to attack, as zombies do not need rest since they are all ready dead. MY opponent will say that people will take shifts in defending and that may be true but it's one mistake that'll cause many more to become zombies. There's also the fact that if people are too busy trying to protect themselves from zombies then who will be producing electricity, gas, food, shelter, clothes, and etc. So all zombies need to do is "live" long enough for humans to run out of supplies and then the human race will end. His first point 3 (as he labeled his point 4 as point three) actually makes some sense. There will be hungry animals looking for a meal and will try to east the zombies, but that's actually good for the zombies as a whole since the animal will now become infected by the zombie. The zombie can spread its virus to the animals and have a whole new army of "animal zombies" on its side to further destroy human society. His second point three( which is actually point 4) is the funniest argument of all. He says, and I quote, "Zombies will inevitably die…" Considering that zombies are already dead they cannot die. What would happen? They "die" and become reborn again as a zombie again? The sad part is that my opponent has fallen victim to "Hollywood hype" and believes that zombies need food to "live." As he himself stated "Remember we are capitalist society and that means we will do whatever [for] money, and to be honest if [t]hey [p]but the truth in movies … no one would watch and there would be no action." The only reason zombies think "food food food fooooooooooooooooood" in HOLLYWOOD movies is because Hollywood needs its movies; to do that they make zombies crave human brains as to provide a plot. The truth is that zombies are dead and because they are dead they cannot die from a lack of food. Now my opponent states that there will be people who are secluded from the zombies and they will now be protected from infection. The simple fact however is that these people will have to be secluded forever due to the fact that zombies cannot die on their own. Unless someone uses "common since" (yes my opponent forgot to use common sense and spell common sense right) and destroys a zombies head a zombie will live on until their bodies decompose which can be prevented. All you need is a mad scientist and some Formaldehyde. The crazy scientist tries to control the zombies but he needs to make the zombies last. He gets a lot of Formaldehyde and covers the zombies in it thus preventing their decomposition. Thus the zombies have become immortal in a way. So now since we have immortal zombies who have taken over the whole world except for the few who are secluded I would say the zombies have won. This is because the few that are secluded will have to completely restart civilization since the zombies have killed off the majority of people and the few that live will not likely know how to produce or manufacture anything such as electricity, houses, food, cars, and etc. Why? Because as my opponent stated the underground bunkers are for the government and I doubt President Obama knows how to grow cotton for fabric much less make electric plants for electricity. The other survivors on secluded islands will eventually get affected since viruses will affect animals as well. How? A seagull eats a zombie, the seagull flies over the water and dies, before being reborn gets eaten by a big fish, which will get infected and get eaten by another animal etc. Eventually the ocean will be full of "zombie animals" and the secluded islands will more than likely rely on fish for food. Someone will eat an infected animal and become a zombie himself or herself and spread the virus throughout the island. Yes this will take a long time but eventually the zombies will win as logic has proven. So don't listen to my opponents biased "Hollywood hype," multiple spelling errors, and grammar errors and vote con in today's debate. Thank you
