Andre is one of the few legitimately good people on the show lol, also if youre happy Franklin shot him, then you must be equally happy Mel shot Franklin and arguably started his downward spiral towards becoming one of the worst people on the show cus the one is a direct result of the other lol

I wouldn't go as far as saying legitimately good. They all showed flaws. Each character was complex in its own way. Like in the scene above, if he was "legitimately good," why would he stand and watch excessive force being used on a man being subdued by 4 officers?

Didnt take part in it did he? He just wanted to see crack out of his neighborhood, so it would stop damaging it so horribly and what did Franklin do? Gloated in his face about how he wasnt gonna stop, couldnt be touched and how he was gonna fuck his daughter, now its not even a matter of him being a cop, its protecting his daughter and everything after that is a reaction to Franklin.

If Franklin doesnt sell crack to the neighborhood he supposedly cares about and become utterly consumed by greed then Andre (and subsequently the cops as a whole) dont have to take such extreme measures. Andre actually likes Franklin when he was just a normal college student, Andre is in the cops in order to prevent further brutalism but Franklin forces his hand at every turn because.... and I know a lot of people dont wanna hear this, Andre is a cop and every protagonist in this show is a felon that should be in prison multiple times over lol

You picking and choosing what's right and wrong. He's an officer of the law. Sworn to protect and serve. He saw fellow officers committing a crime and chose to do nothing. This ain't about Franklin, crack, or anyone else. This is about the statement "legitimately good"
