User blog comment:Eobard95/Arrow Season 5 - what it should be/@comment-27700324-20160617152145/@comment-3423279-20160619071622

Oliver killed criminals, Diggle was forced to put down his brother who would never stop threatening his family as long as he is alive, Felicity had the choice between tens of thousands of people dying and millions, all of these examples are different from Slade, Zoom, Black Siren, Malcolm Merlyn, and Damien killing random people and loving it.

Granted Merlyn might not of been all about murder nor was Slade, but the two didn't seem to care either. Saying you can "redeem" these people who killed hundreds without caring about the loss of life or even enjoying it is ridiculous, at some point there is no redemption any longer.
