That is nothing but the truth.

This is the same show where a surgeon and her boss convinced half the medical staff at St Thomas to risk their careers in order to help her carry out a fake miscarriage.

You're not alone. I dig August and I think Jax secretly does too.

To add, Jax also threatened her with physical abuse. When he packed his bags to leave their home to shack with the whore (Colette) he said "I'm leaving before one of us gets hurt".

Thank you for bringing that inconvenient truth up. A truth that absolutely no one talks about. Jax sanctioned the murder of Tara at the table, with his brothers, when asked what to do if Tara followed through with ratting. "Then we do what we have to do" he said. I thought I was hearing things, I was so shocked. …

Yes, I think Gemma will kill anyone who knows too much of her truth. Nero better watch out. This is why she turned on Clay and eventually Tara.

You are spot on about letting Tara leave being the easiest solution, and he even recommended it at the end of S4 but she decided to stay at his side. I do understand the desire for them to stay together - Jax was in love with her and would do anything to keep her and that included making Samcro something it wasn't…

Agree.

It's Jury.
And it's still foul for Jax to kill 'civilians'. It's a little hypocritical for him to be on a rampage to avenge Tara's murder- someone he didn't exactly telegraph any affection for last season but is suddenly enraged by her death - while recklessly murdering people like Tara, who aren't really involved…

POSSIBLE SPOILER** Not sure if we should believe what Sutter says - but he confirmed in some article last week that Unser really and truly doesn't know, and won't find out the truth until much later in the season. :(

That is actually very true. Jax is a big man in the streets, but when his personal life comes into play he is a man-boy incapable of making adult decisions. He always, always, always turned to Tara and Gemma to help him sort it.

Someone should start calling her "The Hag" or "The murderer" among many other appropriate labels.

Agree. I had high hopes for this new sheriff but she appears to be totally incompetent.

I wanted to shed a tear myself that we've been subjected to Gemma's blubber-cry over Tara like 4x's now while Jax, who is just now seeing his kids for the 1st time in two weeks, single-teared it. And that tear was probably over the extremely shitty thing he just did to Jury, not for Tara.

Next to Jax, Bobby seemed to have the most affection for Tara. Maybe he takes her death very personally on some level too? Enough to abandon his normal code of reason?

I'm at a loss to explain that too. It was Bobby-Tender Heart after all who chastised Jax for killing the Grim Bastard's cousin who was involved in Opie's death back in S5.

But also, they planned to frame them just after meeting them - not after Lin threatened them and gave them a 24 hour deadline. So, this was not an act of desperation. As soon as they met these two unfortunate individuals Jax decided their fate.

Also stupid to kill those guys, whom we might assume are 'regular citizens' (not thugs). Meaning they will actually be missed by their families and an earnest police investigation would likely occur in hopes to find their killers.

Yes but they had Mob Doctor Tara to patch them up.
Now, one of them could seriously die. Bobby was one who was near death at the end of S6 until Tara healed him. And he's at it again not 2 weeks later.

Plausible because Jax annihilated the entire contingent of Chinese who showd up to the IRA meet, including Lin's OG uncle.
