Could've would've should've.
You do not know this.
Both of them are limping from a leg/foot injury, severely hindering their movement.
Otis also has the weight problem.
Continuing to limp along with Otis who continuously has to stop doesn't just endanger both of them, it puts that child at risk.
While in a perfect world, Shane's actions would be deplorable.
It's a zombie apocalypse and there's a little boy who is hanging by a thread because of the very man standing next to you.
I do not fault Shane for making the choice to sacrifice Otis for his and the little boy's life.
Shane will just have to live with the guilt, while also battling with his affections for Rick's wife and his admiration for Rick.
The man has it worse out of the entire group.
I don't even know why I'm responding to this, you're a long winded individual.
When otis shot the kid it was a clear accident. He was hunting to provide for an entire family, while this stupid kid was walking up to a buck (who should have fucking gauged his eyes out if this is supposed to be a representation of what a real life zombie situation would be.)
The way the footage was shot coupled with the pace they were going before Shane stopped for a prima donna leg shot shows they could have made it.
The life of the kid is worth anymore than the life of Otis? In a zombie apocalypse, the life of a strong willed hunter with various skills (otis) would be infinitely more valuable than a little boy. Now this kid is going to live through a zombie apocalypse with a slow healing gunshot wound, he's wasted precious time and medicine, and he's even more of a liability. The kid did not deserve to get shot, and deserves to live, but since you wanted to turn this into a "this is a zombie apocalypse" then you put your foot in your own mouth.
Otis saved Shanes life, if Shane wanted to make a sacrifice he could have sacrificed himself. His past with Rick's wife is nothing but a ticking disgusting time bomb and as he pointed out before by packing up his own car, he has nothing of value left in the group.
Go watch some awful vampire show now.
