I feel that oversimplifies the moral complexities involved that make this more a gray situation than just a moment where John is purely irredeemable. From his perspective that guy he killed just seconds before was holding him to allow Karli to get a shot in to outright \'\'kill\'\' him, to which Lemar, his best friend, responded to the situation by diving in to save him, only to get killed for it. To him, his best friend just got killed for saving him and Karli\'s allies are accomplices who enabled this situation to happen. From an emotional perspective, his actions are understandable and the Flag-Smashers didn\'t do themselves any favors here by trying to murder him in the first place. Now is this a thing that\'s a traditional hero would do? No, but this is why we have a term for characters who don\'t conform to traditional hero standards while not being outright evil villains: {{Anti Hero}}es.
