If you were Sam on Sauron's Road... - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I've seriously been thinking about it and looking up some stuff. I still don't know what I would do. You need to think about it. Remember what Gandalf said to Frodo at the very begining of the Fellowdhip of the Ring? He said "some who live deserve death and some who die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Don't be too quick to deal out death in judgement." Granted Sam probably had no idea Gandalf said that. But if you look at it at that viewpoint it sorta turns the situation around. If I could see the future however I would spare him because Thanks to Gollum, The ring was destroyed.
