Finn thought the grounders had his friends, as he was just at war with them, and he freaked out when they started jumping the fence. That combined with what is likely some level of PTSD, and you can begin to understand Finn's actions. I'm not saying Finn was a good guy whatsoever, but he redeemed himself by willingly giving himself up to die, even though he knew he would be brutally tortured for hours before he'd die (which thankfully didn't happen).

But Bellamy? Not redeemable at all. He direclty left Arkadia and sought out these 300 grounders, who he KNEW were there to help, and slaughtered them. And the writers have given us very little evidence of any PTSD, in my opinion. Finn and Bellamy have similarities, but I find them difficult to compare. In the end, Finn did the right thing. But part of me doesn't even want Bellamy to get to self-sacrifice, because I don't want him to think his life is redemption for everything that he's done.

Bellamy was my favourite character, but now, I just want him to die, and I don't even want him to die happy or fufilled lol man, I just can't stand him. Once again, don't blame the character, blame the writers. If they'd developped his mental and psychological toll on the situation better, you'd understand his actions. Frankly, it's their fault. As a writer I learned that it's never the character. It's the poor talent and effort of the creator! I know what you mean (I'm a writer myself), but at the end of the day, Bellamy isn't real. So he is is entirely composed by JR and the writers. So this is who Bellamy is because they've made him this way, but it's simply who he is now, if you know what I mean. But I'll always have season 2 Bellamy, who was one of my favourite characters on television.
