doesn't kill them, as evidenced by the multiple burnt walkers we've seen.


Wrong. Fire destroys everything. They were just walking through the woods and there were burnt walkers everywhere. Set a fire line and light them up. Maybe it wouldn't kill them immediately. But it would over take them over time. The walkers were banging on the wall for over a day..

And where do you think they are going to get millions of gallons of water from? Or a firetruck? I would guess water would be at a premium and would not be used to blast walkers back.


There is a pond on the property. It could be drawn from a local creek or lake. There would be tons of abandoned fire stations with trucks. A stretch, sure, but it did show how pliable and weak the walkers are by this time.

Where are they going to get acid from?


The one thing that wouldn't have been pilfered from hardware stores or any industrial setting would have been solvents, chemicals and acids. It would be available by the barrel and has a very long shelf life. Tons of combinations that would strip the skin and outer layers off the dead. They can't last long with out skin. They would succumb to the elements..

I know they have shown other groups. But the dead shouldn't be a factor anymore. By this time, groups would have eliminated the huge herds they come into contact with. They are too easy to kill. Having them as the main obstacle is just lazy and unrealistic at this point. I'm not attacking the theme or the show as a whole. This is just a dumb storyline..

You're wrong, it doesn't kill them, but ill play along. How are you going to set them on fire? Let me guess, pour diesel on them?

Do you know how much water moves through a fire hose running wide open? That pond would be drained in minutes.

I do agree with you that they are should've been more prepared but disagree about how they should combat the walkers. They should've reinforced the walls better (before this hoard of walkers even arrived) and the crumbling church should've been taken down a while back.
That being said the Alexadrians are stupid and that seems to be rubbing off on Rick and co.
