I don't blame the Imperials for trying execute me despite not being on the list Strange logic Someone has made a rough mistake because of which you must die and you dont blame them. In such cases people bring an action against the guilty person at the least. Besides stormcloaks are not criminals. Although, while I love the Imperials (and side with them), I certainly didn't appreciate the execution, no matter how logical it was. Obviously, reality and logic support Ifnsman's claim, but I am still not over it. How exactly do they support Ifnsman's claim? If reality support anything, it's that the Dragonborn should hold a decades-long grudge against the Empire for nearly chopping their head off. If the Dragonborn survived the ordeal it was due to chance, not the Emperor's mercy.

Give us at least one real-life example of a person satisfied with a miscarriage of justice, please? ^Strawman argument right here. No-one's been saying they're "satisfied". In-fact, the guy before you just said he was not satisfied.

How should the Imperials have known at the time that the Dragonborn was innocent of involvement with the Stormcloaks? Why would the Dragonborn have needed to illegally cross the border? What legitimate reason would the Imperials have, after they had just captured the rebel leader, to even believe the Dragonborn's claims?

Hadvar ultimately had the right idea, that maybe you were innocent of involvement & were just in the wrong place at the wrong time, but the Imperial Captain was absolutely convinced by circumstance and 'common sense'.

If you witnessed someone else in the same place as a known criminal ["at the wrong place at the wrong time", as it were] you would naturally assume their guilt, at least initially, regardless of whether they truly are guilty.
