Check out Sidereel. Its very hard to find them now, you just have to wade through links and be patient.
Powerful episode.
I think the boy needs to be brought up a little better and he has too much of his mom in him.
I'm not a cruel guy, but after hearing about the other guy's camp, perhaps he's more useful with info, but I think we're supposed to believe he's a threat and on the fence with his intent.
Given the walker that got Dale, I think they need to stop arguing and start patrolling the area and start getting ready for winter.

It was total symbolism. Dale represented the voice of reason and morality, and now it's gone from the group. Prepare for some chaos.
P.S. When Shane goes - and he will - it's not going to be pretty.
Perhaps Shane will ask the prisoner more about the other group since he'd probably be a better fit with people like that.
The preview showed the kid had escaped.
I also didn't find dale to be the voice of reason. Just because he didn't want to kill the kid doesn't make his decision the reasonable one.

Its not that hes the "voice of reason" as much as he's the moral compass trying to preserve whats left of pre-zombie decency....

Yes, Dale was the moral compass guy. Doesn't mean he was being realistic about what to do with the intruder. I will miss his character, he made for an interesting counterpoint to their whole crazy situation.
Based on what he saw and did (and did not do) in this episode, Carl the Kid is gonna be taking care of some important business for the group soon.

Slightly off topic, has The Walking Dead and shows like Doomsday Preppers made ya think about how you'd stay prepared? I've seen sites that sell ~15 year shelf life food and I think the Crovel might be a good survival tool/zombie weapon.

Thank you, I was going to post damn near the same thing verbatim! Now all I have to do is +1 this and save me poor lil fingers.

Well "Carl" was throwing what looked like real rocks at the mudwalker. I bet he was coached to "please avoid hitting poor zombie actor in the skull or the gonads with the rocks".
The question to ask is, Does Carl shoot like a girl...

No he screams like one, gets to close, falls down, drops gun and runs away while leaving the gun. Just like every girl who dies in every horror movie ever.
I don't think either would be that great in the long haul since most compound bows and crossbows probably can't handle wooden arrows/bolts. I suppose to a certain extent, you could reuse carbon or aluminum arrows/bolts.
A compound bow takes a little more skill, but they have more range due to the longer power stroke and typically fly better than an ultra stiff crossbow bolt. The shorter length also throws off balance when you factor in the field point or arrow head.
With zombies, I've decided the perfect weapon might be a .22lr with a suppressor. A few thousand rounds weight nothing and take up minimal space.

You would have to get good but it's quite so it dosent alert zombies and you can reuse ammo.
Ruger 10/22 w/ a suppressor.
Cheap, easy to find ammo, you can carry thousands of rounds, it's quiet so zombies aren't going to hear it. It's lightweight and easy to carry, semi auto so you can keep plinking away at zombie noggins nice and fast. About the only thing you wouldn't have is range.
