And his "honorable decision" lead to a war that decimated the kingdom and killed thousands. One families life hardly compares.
He's no Ramsay or Gregor, but he's a very bad person.
Victarion Greyjoy should sit the Iron Throne.

Actually, that blame is misplaced. Joffrey did that.
If Ned hadn't of being so honorable and had such a suicidally swelled sense of fair-play he could have easily avoided it. Also stupid. "Derp, lets go tell Cersei I know everything, durrrr. Littlefingers got my back". 6_9 Him choosing to put more value in his honor and the lives of a few kids when the entire kingdom was on the line is hardly an admirable trait.

I didn't say he wasn't. The difference is that he caused that through intelligence and guile, whereas Ned caused it through naivety and idiocy.
Victarion is a loser. Asha has more swag in one teat than he does in his entire body.
Ned probably didn't expect that he was in much danger because he viewed his death as too stupid a move to be a legitimate risk. And it was, but Joffrey is an easily-misled idiot.
Ned didn't cause it at all. Or do you blame women who are scantily clad and drunk when they get raped? Yes Nephthys I went there.
Victarion would tear her head off and **** the Dusky woman.
Ned knew that the situation could lead to war, hence why he sent Catelyn back telling her to prepare the bannermen for the possibility.
If a scantily clad women walks up to someone (and all his mates) who she knows is a rapist and tries to punch him in the face when the only person backing her up is someone almost certainly also a rapist, I'm not saying that its not a really awful thing when she gets raped, but I am saying that she's probably partially to blame and that that was a really, really stupid thing to do.
"Durr, I hate my brother. All of his gifts are poisoned. Let me just **** this whore he gave me and tell her all my secrets because being mute makes her 100% trustworthy durrrrrrrrrrr." 6_9

Lots of situations "could have" led to war, mostly due to Catelyn being a dumb *****. Ned was too moral to kill two innocent children (And one not so innocent child) to win the game of thrones.

Would you find the rapists cool, Nephthys? Because the crimes of most rapists don't even begin to rival Littlefinger's.
Trusting Littlefinger is indeed one of Ned's biggest mistakes, and Varys chews him out for it, but why do you keep on trying to downplay the blame the person who actually committed the deed should receive? Why do you hate justice?

What are you implying about Victarion Greyjoy?

Yeah, and that's why I'm criticising him. When mercy leads to a kingdom-shattering war, can it truly be called virtuous?

Dude, you find rapists cool! haermm Your favorite character is basically a walking rape machine.
I find Littlefinger to be rather appealing because I can't help but admire the brilliance of his plans and some of his masterstroke moments. Also because he's so witty and never particularly unpleasant. I wouldn't find the rapists cool because I loath rapists entirely. The crimes of rapists pale in comparison to a lot of villains who I happen to think are cool and likeable. That just happens sometimes.
I'm not downplaying the blame. I'm just not particularly angry at Littlefinger for his blame in things.

He's a moron. Asha on the other hand is actually intelligent AND badass. Remember her dear husband and sweet suckling babe? One of the best scenes in the books imo. So much ownage to someone who deserved it so much.
By the way, I recommend reading this Lets Read of the entire series. Its pretty good, shes up to Feast atm.
Its fun to see someone reacting to something and hear their thoughts on it as they read it. For instance, she totally didn't see the incest babies plot twist coming and her reaction was pretty hilarious. And she was determined to hate Jaime with the passion of a thousand suns. And got angry with she couldn't by the end of SoS.
Thought this was interesting
