No.
Hershel's life was in the balance.
As was Michonne.
Brian gave him the choice. You acting as if Brian didn't give him a choice is a lie. You're delusional. Life is about choices and he had one here. He chose to make a plea despite the harshness of Brian's words.
So if someone pushed you up against a wall and held a knife to your throat and said "Put out or I'll scar your face and maybe steal your wallet too", you'd say they had a real choice, huh?
Good to know that in Quan-Land, being put in a position to choose between evil and evil, one always has a choice and could have done better, so stop crying baby.
We see Brian maintain he would honor the deal despite what he did in the past.
LOLNOPE. Brian has a long long history of betraying or attempting to betray people, including Rick's group. When they met for peaceful negotiations, the Governor actually had a gun rigged to kill Rick. He killed Andrea, his best friend, citizens of Woodbury for refusing to pursue the battle after their initial rout, and killed Martinez and that nice guy at the new camp for Whatever Reason Here.
The Governor has zero honor, and you need to stop smoking whatever it is you're smoking if you believe this is true.
Rick still had sick kids, lost his child, Hershel, everyone left in a panic and not organized.
All of which is because of the Governor's dick move to hold two of Rick's people hostage and threaten them with expulsion which would mean the death of the weak in the group and constant movement, or battle which could result in massive death on both sides. Rick tried to stop any hostilities, something you keep ignoring.
They still have to go find some place now with ever scattered. Are you dense ? Same outcome but worse with loves lost and his own child gone.
Nothing we've seen indicates the Governor would have given them any leniency if they complied. His history is littered with double crossing, cold blooded murder, and hatred for Michonne and Rick. Your assertion that everything would be hunky dory if Rick had just bent over is unfounded. In any case, the Walkers descended upon the group outside before negotiations were concluded, so the "until sundown" time span meant nothing; both groups would have to contend with a growing herd.
Cry Rick as you did this. I have no pity for him here. He erred in judgment and got his ass kicked in the process.
You are hilarious. I can't believe your statements are real. It's almost like.... like you're...
