- 18? You think that was it? If Clarke hadn't appeared, Finn would have massacred all the villagers from kids to elders. He would have gone on a rampage. He was beyond sanity! Bellamy didn't believe Kane that the Grounders came to protect them. He's been screwed over so many times by them, is it too much to see that Echo's betrayal was his final thread? He lost all respect for Grounders aside Lincoln who let's face it wasn't much of a Grounder since he was practically living and training with him.

Bell is not irredeemable. None of them is irredeemable. Even Finn wasn't irredeemable. They are all victims of war, because no matter how you look at it, this is a war zone. They'll never stop fighting one another until one of them is wipped out or assimilates completely to the other's side. At this point I have more sympathy for Finn than I do for Bellamy. 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.
