Agree to disagree. There's a reason nobody really sided with Morgan in that Church when Rick was looking for a vote of confidence to draw first blood on the Saviors. This is why I love the show though. It has interesting dynamics and lasting impacts based on simple and not so simple decisions that must be made.

 

I will say this. Rick's decision to draw first blood will ultimately result in Negan's brutal retaliation on Alexandria and a loss of a key member to his group. And I am sure the aftermath will involve Alexandria questioning Rick's leadership. As it should be. But I think that's what comes with the territory when you're looked up to be the leader.

 

I don't see anybody else offering to step up and fill in his shoes. Rick has the right of it for the most part. And in a post-apocalpytic world you will have casulaties one way or another.
