TV Post - The Walking Dead: It's not Carl's fault

Ok, maybe it is Carl's fault for being a complete and utter moron.  If he hadn't stolen Daryl's gun, and wandered off into the woods and woken a walker that followed him back and killed a cow and then killed Dale, then maybe Dale would still be alive...but come on, who's fault is it really?  Lori and Rick should be responsible for their idiot child who wanders off in a zombie infested world on his own with no repercussions.  At the very least someone should have said "Carl, where the hell have you been?  Why are your pants so muddy?  Don't you know it's dangerous out there?" but no, everyone acts like it's totally normal for the small child to be unaccounted  for hours at a time.  I don't know if it's shitty parenting/survival tactics, or just lazy writing (leaning on the latter) but this has got to stop.

The only person responsible for Dale's death is Dale for wandering off on a dark and misty night through the fields.  That's a nono.  If you want to patrol the grounds, do it in a group.  If you want to get away from the group to blow off some steam...don't.  There are ZOMBIES out there!  Frankly, I'm glad to see Dale get killed because this episode he was really getting on my nerves.  Yes, it would be great to latch onto our humanity and have a fully functioning judicial code in a post-apocalyptic-zombie world...but it's a god damn post-apocalyptic-zombie world!  The important thing is to survive.  Everything else comes second.
