Shane has done some despicable things but he always had a redeeming quality to him until last night. And everything he does becomes more extreme. Beating Ed was just his way of blowing off steam cause Lori rejected him, not because Ed was abusive. Aiming the gun at Rick also showed his downward spiral but he was able to bring himself back to reality and when he tried to force himself on Lori, he seemed genuinely shocked when he came to but still there was always something that said he's not evil, but just an ass but now I think he's finally slipped and there will be no going back. I think Shane is gonna be the series bad guy for awhile and that they're gonna build him up so that you just want to see him get it. Like I said though I can easily see myself doing what he did to a stranger especially if I'm exausted and running for my life and I was beginning to panic, but to be honest, once the deed was done and I'm out of harms way and I have time to reflect on what I did, I'd probably very seriously consider blowing my own head off however, judging by the way Shane's eyes and expression looked, I doubt he's gonna loose much sleep.
