In a sense, it WAS an accident. Finn didn't go there to kill those people. He even said, "No one has to get hurt. We just want our people back." Finn isn't crazy in the sense that he has lost all connection to reality. However, he is suffering from a disorder, probably PTSD. Jason Rothenberg, the executive producer and series developer, said that Finn was traumatised by everything that had happened. Our minds get sick just like our bodies. I could go on and on about what caused Finn to lose control, but the bottom line is that it wasn't something he deliberately intended to do. He didn't get off on it. He was confused and frightened.

Haven't you ever reacted badly to something without thinking and then said, "I didn't mean to do that"? That's why Finn said it was an accident. He wasn't thinking clearly. There was no malice of forethought. He just snapped. He lost himself and made a tragic and deadly mistake. There will be consequences, but he doesn't deserve to die. And considering everything Finn has been through,  I, for one, think that  he deserves a little compassion.
