Zombies were people too! At least, that is what some misguided souls want to keep in mind when they are for ethical treatment of these flesh eating undead.
Zombies are not second-class citizens!
At the most basic, zombie rights advocates believe that the living-challenged deserve the same treatment as we afford to living beings. Just because their desires are more focused now doesn’t mean that they shouldn’t be able to pursue and achieve the same happiness as others. Whether alive or not, every human strives for some sort of greater fulfillment, be that a job, a relationship, or brains. We at People for the Ethical Treatment of Zombies strive to educate the public about the rights of the living-challenged. It’s not a radical concept. In most cases, these individuals didn’t ask to become zombies. The large frontal lobe on humans affords us the ability to imagine ourselves in others’ shoes. When we use this to understand those who have become living-challenged, we know that deep down they deserve our best intentions, not a shotgun blast.
