Sons of Anarchy season 6

Love the show, But I really didn't like the ending, I don't feel it was appropriate. I don't think it was in good taste or makes good television.  I feel it goes to stir up more bad feelings and negativity for the gun community. It's bad enough that we have people that are anti-gun no matter what. Then we have these psycho nut jobs that go out and shoot up the public. Now they are putting it in a critically acclaimed television show. Nothing can come of this BUT negative publicity for those pro gun and positive publicity for those anti gun

From Kurt Sutter about why he did that scene:

 

The timing of it is somewhat controversial, but it is something I knew I wanted to do for a couple of years now, and I knew it would be a series of events that would have to [occur]… as we kind of slide towards the end of our mythology. Things are never done in a vacuum, meaning there are ramifications to everything, whether it be legal consequences or emotional consequences or familial consequences. There’s sh-t that always happens; sometimes it happens immediately, sometimes there will be a season or two before stuff comes back to haunt them. It all comes back around, and this series of events changes all of their relationships.


It changes their relationships with the Irish, because now Jax has the emotional catalyst he needs to motivate [everyone]… to not be in guns. It impacts his relationship with the DA and with Toric, and we’ll really see the relationship shift within the town of Charming and how suddenly the favorite Sons, or at least the accepted Sons, are seen as a danger and potentially more of a pariah than a savior.

This takes [our characters] down this path that perhaps they won’t be able to come back from. It was a fine line; I didn’t want it to become this big political storyline where I had to acknowledge it and have everyone have an opinion about how bad it is and who’s responsible, and blah, blah, blah; that’s not what this show does, nor is it why people watch it. And yet I couldn’t completely ignore all those things and still feel like I handled it responsibly.

So, I tried to layer in my point of view in terms of why I think these things happen. And what I hope is that people come away with [the idea that] if there is a social and political point of view about the shooting and a moral point of view, it is not one particular party that’s responsible for these tragedies, that it is a combination of gun laws, mental health, schools, parents, media… It wasn’t about seeing dead bodies. It was more about the emotional impact of what happened, and you just really get it in those few pops in the aftermath, when we come back from the act-out. So, I feel like that suggests a certain level of responsibility in terms of how we were telling the story and what our goals were.

Bobby is the only true remaining club member...

Chibs has been left out of the loop on a lot of crap he would have called Jax's hand on. 

 

Juicey Boy is a goner. I don't know what he has left in the story, but it has to be something.

 

But that really rounds us out on the original members of season one.

 

Who do we have left? Happy, Filthy Phil?

 

All the other main characters are ancillary members, not patched.
