1. Kane and Byrne did NOT torture Rivo. Kane told Byrne to stop when she held a gun to his head.

2. This was all done to get information to SAVE lives. This wasn't done out of an act of revenge. Two very different reasons. Neither is justifiable but one at lest has a purpose, the other does not.

3. Finn was suffering from PTSD (confirmed by JR/link is in the Finn comment section). Everyone in S2 began to suffer from psychological problems due to the war with the Grounders and their people being trapped in Mount Weather, dying. JR even confirmed that by the end of S2, EVERYONE had some level of PTSD (link in the Finn comment section, too).

4. Clarke, Bellamy, and Raven (in S1) were the only ones right in the head when they did what they did. Maybe not Raven, though, since Finn was her last family member and he was dying. She sort of lost it. Bellamy and Clarke were right in their heads, though. BUT they at least showed remorse and didn't do it for the pleasure of hurting somebody (like the Grounders wanted to do to Finn). They UNDERSTOOD that it was WRONG, Raven didn't. Clarke also saved Lincoln's life in S2, and Bell befriended Lincoln.

5. Anyway, all of the examples you listed above DOES NOT even compare to what the Grounders wanted to do to Finn. Their reason was REVENGE. Not that I agree with anyone else, but at least they had a legit REASON to do what they did.

BTW, when I made my comment I was referring to people in REAL LIFE, not on the show. I saw many people say Finn deserved the Grounders' death, so I was just saying those kinds of people need to seek help. Also, just because the people on the show tortured others DOES NOT mean they thought it was okay. Raven was basically the only one who didn't care.
