This explains why he used riot gear instead of just shooting Finn, seems that he wanted to capture him, Despite trying to bash his head in, that may just be to knock finn out. The weapons where meant to be none letal, and then Han Solo comes along and just shoots him, unaware of his connection to Finn and his somewhat good intentions.
Tired of seeing these ******* traitors get away with everything and disgrace the First Order? Sign my petition to help bring back TR8R in the next film with over 350 supporters already...
Just imagine if we all worked together and got this thing to 100,000 signatures....
Why don't we just make a petition to bring Han Solo back as well.
Or maybe also Darth Vader and Obi Wan Kenobi.
I mean it is obvious fans don't care about continuity.
