1. Well...
He tortured Leia in an attempt to get the locations of the rebel base out of her, held her back and forced her to watch as Tarkin ordered the destruction of her planet, nearly killed her on the planet Mimban (and would have had it not been for a Force-amplifying crystal helping Luke heal her), torture her primary love interest while she was captive again.

As for Luke, Vader ordered the death of his aunt and uncle and watched the slow and painful executions, killed another parental figure in the form of Obi-Wan, nearly shot him down and came close to destroying R2-D2, fought Luke on Mimban after nearly killing Leia, fought him on Hoth and cut his hand off.

I'd say "No".

2. Anakin had "issues".

Apparently, the Jedi were poor father figures. And while Palpatine filled that role for Anakin, he was a megalomaniacal psychopath & mass murderer.

3. Sounds more like he was a sociopath/psychopath, whichever term is used nowadays. nt

5. Since no one ever had the courage or decency to tell him he had children - no.
Imagine, all those rebel scum keeping from Anakin the fact that he had children.

What a living hell that must have been for him to think always that his child/children were killed when Padme was killed.

It's evil. If anything, Anakin deserves restitution. He was those children's rightful father, and the rebel jedi scum stole them.

8. So if there were hundreds of Jedi and 2 Sith
Why did Obi Wan want to "restore balance" to the Force? Could he not count?
