The attack by Lannister forces on Yoren and the Night's Watch recruits seems to have been a huge breach of the laws that no one mess with them. Of course one could say that Yoren was getting involved with non Night's Watch matters by protecting Gendry (and Arya to an extent though I don't think the attackers were looking for her). I wonder if knowledge of that ever got out and got back to the Night's Watch. Seems like that would have some impact on how they view Lannister sympathizers. It almost seems like they could attack Lannister friendly types with a justification that it was revenge for that massacre.

Don't know how GRRM will do it in the book, but in the show with Melisandre going to the riverlands supposedly to get Gendry, then Gendry could end up at the Wall when Stannis goes there to fight the Wildlings. Nights Watch could then find out about the Lannister attack directly from Gendry.
