Throughout the play spike lee puts scenes with conflict in them for the most part these issues aren't resolved in way that most people would consider positive. Lee is trying to say the that do the right thing is hard. this point is made clear when the incident between sal and buggin out ends with both parties being angry. Later in the story because things weren't handled the right way a bad outcome came out of it. Now after the death of radio Raheem so many characters who didn't do the right thing are affected. Sal has lost his business that he built with who own two hands, Mookie has lost his job and a friend, Radio Raheem lost his life, buggin out lost a friend and will probably end up in jail. Lee is trying to tell is that countingly doing the wrong thing has costly results.
The right thing to do is take a step back to think about situation. The purpose of this is to ensure that the best choice possible is made to avoid negative outcomes. None of the characters do this they let their emotions get the best of them. Sal should of never brought out his Mickey mantle bat to destroy Raheem's radio in addition radio Raheem should never have tried to choke sal out.
