    Yes, and they've found that the popularity of it made it a good choice for doing some public health education.

    They have lesson plans about emergency preparedness for teachers they disguise as "zombie apocalypse" material. If you call your emergency supplies a "bug out bag" and omit the guns, suddenly you have a great set of things to keep in your home for a flood or hurricane.

    So you leave your guns to be flooded in your home?
