I will disagree with you on Rick on the Walking Dead being a lousy leader, but that is a debate for a whole different time.

I hope you are wrong about Thea playing a long con on both Malcolm and Oliver. If she is, I will be very angry.

I hope you turn out to be surprised. Thea does not strike me as the type of person to try and play someone. I think her reaction to finding out Ollie was the Arrow was genuine and she will not show a more angry reaction to finding out Ollie kept a secret from her later or have a trap related to that later in the…

Agreed.

"Oliver's own activities, and the enemies he made, arguably got his own mother killed."

Except Oliver did a FAR better job at protecting the city than they did and he did it for years whereas they did it for weeks. While Oliver may have been a little too harsh in how spoke to Thea, I think it was a bit ungrateful on their parts.

It does not change the fact that Oliver has been protecting the city for years now. They protected the city while he was gone for, how long? A few weeks? And they did a poor job of it. That little mutiny in the Arrow Cave was a little ungrateful if you ask me.

Exactly. Thank you for giving me reasons for why my love for Felicity should decrease.

She had a connection to the league of Assassins. That along with being a competent fighter (not to mention chemistry with Ollie) is why I found her more interesting than Laurel.

I have to thoroughly disagree with that statement. Why would you say that?

Sara can come back. Moira can stay dead.

Maybe.

It is suicide squad related

Me too.

Exactly.

Agreed.

Me too. I'm still mad they offed her. I hope the Lazarus Pits are used to bring her back to life at some point.

How about no? I did not want her to have the same reaction that she had upon finding out that her brother kept her true parentage a secret.

Agreed.

I have to agree here. And Oliver had good reasons for not wanting Laurel to be the Black Canary. She was not well trained Oliver, Roy or Diggle. Her father already lost Sara. If he loses Laurel, he will be devastated. She needs to cut back a bit.
