Because he had literally just watched his mother be murdered. And turned around to find the face that killed her standing right there. You do not watch someone you love die in front of you and react rationally.

If I remember right, the film makers even said they did that on purpose, they set it up exactly like that to produce that reaction. As did Zola. The entire situation was set up do he'd have no option except to react emotionally. And yes, he walked right into it and gave them exactly what they wanted, but if someone murders my mother and I turn around and they're standing right beside me, I am 100% smashing their face in myself.

But, true. You don't have to forgive him for it. Neither does Steve, neither does Bucky. But by exactly the same token, he doesn't have to forgive them for what they've done. (Mostly Steve, Bucky's actions were against his will - though even still, even if someone did not willingly murder your family, that doesn't mean you should have to look at them ever again when they still have). Which is what I mean. That entire relationship is past salvaging. The things they have done to each other in these movies are beyond the pale. This is not ... Cut them out. Have them be done with each other. This is not a relationship that has ever helped anybody, least of all either of the people in it. What is there to salvage in a relationship that started out with interpersonal strife and graduated to lies and secrets and violence? Where people hide murders and respond to each other's actions with violence? Where there is no trust and never has been?
