re: Breaking Bad: Jesse’s Parents. Good people or not?

Walter could never leave well enough alone though. He would've had a problem with Gus or Mike or eventually Hank would've gotten too close. Something. Walter just couldn't help but frick up.

And Jesse wouldn't have fricked something else up?

How could he? He's dead in this scenario. Remember?

The point is, if you're trying to white knight for any character, you didn't watch the show closely enough.

Hate Jesse all you want. He's the moral compass of the show. And he's no where near as big a frick up as Walt. That was my point and I feel the show made it pretty clear.

I agree with every point you make except for #3.

I assume you're referring to Jesse shooting Gale in the face. If so, he did that for Walter. Jesse was already in hiding (after Walter ran over Gus' dealers to save Jesse) and somewhat safe. Walter begged Jesse to kill Gale to save his life because Gus was done with his shite and Mike was fixing to execute him in the lab. And without Gale, Gus wouldn't have a cook.

I'm sure you're right. It's been several years since I watched the show all the way through. Still, though, the point stands - he committed a murder in cold blood.

If this show has a moral compass, it's Hank.

Hank is human garbage!!!
