Unfortunately many people lose close family members, even parents, in tragic, horrible, unfair circumstances that never see justice all the time. Most of them - I would wager almost absolutely all of them - do not commit mass murder afterwards. I vehemently disagree with your opinion about what I would have done in his place and register my unease with how you raise it as an obvious general norm.

I mean Vader enabled a heartless dictator to take over the galaxy and personally saw to it that a whole planet of billions of people blew up. Doubtless in the years after Order 66 Vader was responsible for millions of other deaths. I mean he personally strangled Captain Antilles for god’s sake. The Old Republic was flawed, but disruption in this manner was clearly a step towards a new, shittier status quo. Disrupting something and making it worse doesn’t make him a hero.
