These aren't easy questions, and I hope that the sixth season does a good job exploring them. But even still, does it make that action right? What is justice in a zombie apocalypse? What is leadership? Where do you draw the line between doing what must be done and doing what ought to be done? Was Morgan's mercy a mistake? Will it have its own consequences down the road? If he had killed his attackers, would that have saved the lives of others? It's possible. On the other hand, we know the Wolves are coming and we know that they are Very Bad People. That way lies darkness, and Rick seems to be taking Emperor Palpatine's advice a little too close to heart: Feel your anger. All life is precious and even in times of extreme crisis, we should never be so cavalier about who lives and who dies. On instinct, perhaps, I side with Morgan. The question isn't really whether the naive Alexandrians had the right approach versus Rick's group, but whether Morgan's third way is not only more just, but a viable option for survival. He's quite possibly the most talented survivor of them all, and yet he truly values human life to the point of letting the Wolves go last season. What has changed is we now have Morgan pointing toward a third way. He's become reckless, starting largely after the tragedy at the prison, and that hasn't changed. Rick is still the central figure here, and he's still every bit as domineering and controlling and sure of himself as ever. What we see shaping up for the sixth season is a real examination of what it means to survive this zombie-infested world, and what it does to us as human beings.
