1) Okay, maybe I overreacted when I called Bellamy's massacre a "sick, twisted, and cruel" act, but it was a terrible and selfish thing. People say that it was an accident. But they are wrong. Bellamy did not accidentally damage the radio. He did it on purpose. No, he did not know that him damaging the radio would lead to The Culling, however, that does NOT excuse his actions.

2) Where I come from, somebody can get into just as much trouble for indirectly killing somebody as they can for directly killing somebody. If somebody did something on purpose that led to many deaths (whether they knew the deaths would happen or not) they would still be punished. They would not just be pardoned.

3) Bellamy did not know or care if the council would keep their promise about pardoning the other Delinquents. He damaged the radio so he would not be killed or severely punished for his crime if the Ark citizens made it to Earth.
