5 questions answered in The Walking Dead 715: ‘Something They Need’

#4. Will Tara feel guilty about breaking her promise?
During the trip from Alexandria, Tara was talking about how difficult the decision to tell about the women and children of Oceanside and just how heavily it would all hang over her conscience when it was done.
Tara was put in a situation where she had a gun to her head after her ambush went awry. Despite that, she remained calm and seemed confident that not only would she survive but Rick and the survivors would handle the situation.
Afterwards, Rick and the others took every single weapon the community had. Even after setting off explosions that attracted walkers and possibly the eyes of The Saviors, they are no defenseless and sitting ducks.
Tara said afterwards that she didn’t have to feel bad, but whether or not she actually believes that has yet to be seen. She’s talking a big game, but Tara’s past and her warm heart means that it is likely just her trying to justify her decision.
