Okay. You can’t have it both ways. There’s no justifying an incredibly poor writing decision by saying it was to ‘prove that things happen in this world that we don’t understand.’ Look we already know that, we really do. It makes sense, in both our world and their post-apocalyptic one.These people have had it proven time and time again, and I feel like on that level alone ( as well as every other one that we’ve already confirmed ), they could really have done with a break. They accomplished their mission of getting to their people; everyone was together again. Given the story lines that have already occurred on the series, this should have been a 'calm before the storm’ type scenario.

TWD has been good at giving us some realism in an unrealistic situation, but you mean to tell me that a woman who has suffered severe injuries is capable of standing up from a wheelchair and walking about with little problem and someone that’s just been stabbed can pull out their gun and aim it perfectly upward to shoot another in the head? Yeah, yeah, okay. Okay, I totally see how that’s possible. I totally see how someone that’s made so much progress from a mere shadow to a strong and capable woman would make such an ill-advised decision. It makes so much sense.

Actually, it doesn’t, and I’ll never be able to comprehend what they thought they were doing here.
