said by Fir_Na_Tine:I think they make mention of it in the last episode. You see them holding up the armor and helmets, Rick I think asks if they want to wear it and its all slimy and gooey. And Daryl says no way, and besides we've come this far without it.
Well I don't think anyone would want to wear a helmet that is still dripping from a zombie's face. Hello, wash it out first then maybe someone would wear it. But even before then they could have gotten better protective clothing from other places.
