Board Thread:Character Discussion/@comment-25176701-20141222042649

Finn, a perfectly peaceful character (other than that massacre), was killed off for committing ONE crime that wasn't even a crime (It was self-defense! Those Grounders were trying to murder him!)

Bellamy, a total asshole, who got 320 innocent people killed, his sister locked up in prison, his mother executed, the Chancellor shot, and Murphy hung for no reason because he was too cowardly to stop the crowd (And that led to Charlotte, Connor, and Myles dying and Raven getting shot- therefore, all those incidents were his fault, as well).

The difference is: Finn HAS redeemed himself from the massacre (that was barely his fault- the Grounders' violence caused it) by giving himself up to the Grounders and people commenting on YouTube still thinks he deserves to die, whereas Bellamy has never even came close to redeeming himself for all those lives he took, and people don't say anything about him. I don't wanna hear "Bellamy didn't know the Ark citizens would be killed to save oxygen" cuz it doesn't matter what he knew or didn't know. It's about what he DID that was the problem.

And in the comments on YouTube 100 related videos it's all the Bellarke shippers saying stuff like "Yay! Finn's dead he deserved to die! Now more room for Bellarke!"

It just bothers me that people 1) Think Finn actually deserved to die, whereas Bellamy got a "walk out of jail free card" and 2) Are only glad Finn died so Bellarke could happen (which it won't any time soon, so I have not a clue what they were thinking when they posted their comments).

Another thing that bothers me: In the promo for the new video I see plenty of comments on YouTube that say "Bellamy knocked the glass out of Clarke's hand to protect her #BellarkeForever". It bothers me because despite everything that actually happened in the promo, all some people notice is Bellarke. Now, I ship Flarke a lot but I don't just notice the Flarke moments in promos. I notice everything else, too.
