First, the new canonical explanation is that Hal Jordan was possessed by Parallax. Pretty sure Jordan would have still snapped under those circumstances even if the Guardians had broken the new gently. Second, even if you want to argue this from a pre-retcon perspective ignoring the Parallax parasite, and even if you want to argue that the Guardians were actually jerks and not simply hyper intelligent immortals billions of years old who can\'t quite connect with the grief of a mortal; slaughtering thousands comrades in a bid to claim cosmic power for one\'s own selfish motives does not become your fault just because you were rude to the guy who did it.
