Well, that was the point of my initial post in saying he was "snowed".
I mean, yeah, I get he's a terrible person, a bigot, a bad father, a bad husband, and only cares about saving his own skin at the expense of everyone else... but that doesn't mean he should be shot to death.
Hell, you could justify Frank Castle's actions a lot more against the people he kills, and I think he's on the wrong side of the issue as well..

Same here.
I'm a spouse and a parent, i GET wanting to keep your kids safe, but damn is she psychotic about it.
The stunt at the hotel with the lghts, the aggresively trying to keep her son from growing up and being with a woman, the screwing ip the parlay cuz she couldnt wait like 2 days to get her daughter back...
I liked her story about how she had to kill her abusive dad which explained how she kinda is, but yeah, a lot of moments like her missing up the parlay and other parts is still indefensible.
Or her lying about what Troy did to create further animosity between them and the Native Americans, and planting ideas in his head that not only caused more violence, but had a negative impact on his relationships with his brother (who seems to be one of the few people who genuinely cares about him) and father. And this is after she learns about his past, and knows that he is unstable and vulnerable in that regard. That's one of the reasons I thought "WTF" when she tried her sob story. Troy and Jake went through similar shit as children (abusive alcoholic parents). But she doesn't show them any real sympathy. Instead she tries to use what she knows to manipulate them to serve her agenda.

Good synopsis;
I didnt even want to get into the above, as i would have segued into rant mode.
While i rate her above the parent show's Andrea, Madison is by no means my favorite character. She serves to drive the plot forward though, so there's that.
Oh shit, kinda forgot about her manipulation of Troy causing more ruckus with the Native Americans as well. Yeah, not even her backstory really justifies anything done this arc. She's not the worst AMC's WD universe has produced though, just insufferable more often than not... Shame that she outlived Travis.
Yeah, I really liked Travis. He wasn't above getting his hands dirty, but he also genuinely seemed to want to make an effort to find solutions that helped everybody when it was possible. Madison doesn't give a shit about how many people she hurts in order to get what she wants.
