arkadia, not everyone agreed to pike.... but the majority still did. i cant talk about clarke doing something diffrent in MW because cage told everyone they are going on the ground..... mayas dad was, alongside everyone else who helped the 100, dead at the time clarke was in the room, talkiing to cage.... there was no resistance against cage reamining, he killed them all...... only his followers, who were wiling to let those people die to give them their bone marrow, were still alive, so noone would give cage to them to survive because cage was not what they wanted.... and noone was willing to turn against cage. I see your point, but Maya was alive. So was that guard, I think his name was Lee? So were numerous children. I don't doubt that many people could've been swayed against Cage. Also, it's important to quote Kane here, they CAN donate bone marrow, so if the other residents knew that, perhaps they would've rallied against killing everyone from Arkadia, but I digress.

In the end, I think Clarke did the only thing she could do in that moment, and I don't think she has an evil bone in her body, but we can't pretend like the choice she made was so cut and dry. One of the things that made The 100 fascinating and different from other shows on television was how it's presenting choices where there are NO right answers.

Sorry to drag on this debate haha I'll stop now.
