This zombie thing is interesting. I had never heard that term used for the above racist blanket uses. Even in the casual prepper discussions in CA Zombie=undead. The prepper problem is described as freeloaders, looters, and the unprepared.
Although, in my city, if you say zombie, there is also a locally famous cheese sandwich that might be the first thing that comes to mind http://www.pattysoriginalcheesezombies.com/
