People keep saying that, but to be honest I think it's the exact opposite.
These people had a lot more reason to attack the prison than the people of Woodburry did.
The people in Woodburry had a nice cozy town to live in, with walls, elecricity, and plenty to eat, why would they risk all of that, and their own lives just to move to some prison? When things went wrong, of course they would run back to their relatively safe homes behind walls.
This new group was living in RV's, were short on food and supplies, and had to worry about walkers every day. It's not too far fetched to think they would be run a little ragged, and would be thinking that attacking a prison might not be a bad idea, especially if they got to keep what was left of it afterwards.
My thoughs on how it would go:
Gov: "Hey guys, let's attack that prison"
Woodburry Citizen: "F that. I'm staying here in my house, besides I have to keep an eye on these tomatos"
New group: "That's not a bad idea, it's a hell of a lot better than living out here in this field next to marginally effective zombie pits. Also, yeah, we have a tank, this should be kind of easy, let's do it."
