Sons Of Anarchy: Every Major Antagonist Ranked From Worst To Best
8. Gemma Teller
Though not an actual patched in member of the club, no one could question Gemma's love and loyalty to the Sons of Anarchy. She was the MC's matriarch, everyone involved with SAMCRO would do anything to protect her, and she would do the same.
However, this still didn't stop her from heading up Jax Teller's hit list. Though not technically an antagonist of the club per se, she forced the MC into a deeply personal battle that every member took on as his own, and when you boil it down, she killed the SAMCRO President's wife.
Along with Juice, she spun the fiction that Chris Dun, a man that wasn't even in the state the night Tara was killed, murdered the mother of her grandkids. The immeasurable blood that was spilled thanks to this lie is all on the hands of Gemma Teller.
Though she was loyal to the club, this was trumped by her love and loyalty to her family, in particular her grandkids. Her rash impulsiveness and paranoia around Tara taking them away from her forced her to make the mistake that almost brought the MC to its knees, and crushed whatever was left of her son's soul.
