On Walter White and Hank (no spoilers)

Watching Breaking Bad it is easy to see that Walter White is not a good man, who certainly needs to die or at least wind up in prison to be redeemed. I think being brave is integral to being evil, unfortunately. However, I also find myself unable to root for Hank, either. He is for or has to be for the War on Drugs, which is one of the least noble things a police officer can do/stand for. I think Meth should be legalized and heavily regulated for recreational purposes (It is already medically legal and readily available) So although I want Walter to suffer, I don't want it to be the result of Hank. Every loss a Police Department suffers fighting the War on Drugs is a win for me. This is why I love the show---More facets than a wedding ring diamond. I can wait for everyone to get what they deserve.

You're making me want to watch the rest. I watched up to season 3. I always found myself wanting to root for Walter, then thinking about what he was actually doing (putting his loved ones at serious risk mainly because he was bored as a teacher) and then realizing there is just nobody to root for in this show. You can't hold it against him, his family and friends are just as awful, but less sympathetic. The protagonist of the show is not any of the characters but the inevitable catastrophe looming over their actions. Then I would feel vaguely disgusted and watch something with more soothingly idealized unrealistic characters.

After all the bullshit walter put hank through i want hank to win. I agree with you on the war on drugs aspect, but hank has been through so much shit he never asked for all because of walter i feel like he deserves the win. Walter knw what he was getting himself into, and in the long run eventually the war on drugs will end, and hank will lose. He deserves the win in my book. As for my prediction, walter will try and put up a scarface style showdown, and kill himself after he backs into a corner.
