Such a badass with his gun and all, gunning down some guy walking. Next thing you know he’s like a toddler, wailing for his mcnuggets at the drive-thru.

I know we should all hate the guy, but his sad ending kind of mutes that, I actually feel sorry for him.

I notice when these formerly bad-asses realize they have boxed themselves in a corner with no possible escape, they suddenly change. They get desperate and pine for better days of their childhood at the end. His desperation just to get a “happy meal”, when he knew any interaction with any human could lead to his undoing was really telling. In the end when they are hunted they become like a frightened child, trying to avoid the spanking that they know is coming. Only it is worse, as a father loves his kid, the punishment he had justly earned was not going to be applied with love.

He went bad, did evil for which there is no earthly forgiveness and once he killed that older gentlemen there was no way out. He had to know he was going to die and in the end he was as friendless as one could be. A sad ending and likely an even sadder final judgment, though I do not know what was in his heart at the end. Perhaps there was some repentance, he killed himself rather than getting in a gun battle that might have caused an officer injury or death.

Of course I am sure there are folks who justly celebrate his death and I do not excuse what he did or imply that thinking such is wrong, he got what was coming to him. Just that there is something so sad about this.
