John Marston tries to kill himself by going after Bill Williamson at the start of the game. It's never worded as suicidal, but John says he was "doing something stupid" by going after him.

Horses are easy to kill throughout the game, accidentally or on purpose, as they are the main mode of transportation for everyone and it's hard not to shoot them. Marston's horses are frequently killed by falling from heights or by animals.

Bonnie MacFarlane is hanged during one of the first missions of the game, but you can save her. There are also npc encounters where you need to save one of their family members from being hanged, and a mission with the Marshall where there's a hanged corpse in a barn.

*there are absolutely no named black characters in the entire game, but lynching is mentioned.* Many characters of color who are not black are also killed onscreen such as Nastas, De Santa (deservedly but nonetheless), unnamed Mexican men in a cutscene and in army sequences, Javier Escuella (player choice, though notably he is killed/taken before the white man he is being chased after with), and near hundreds of Dutch's gang which are mostly Native men.

There are many side characters who offhandedly spout racist sentiments and one of these characters is in the opening cutscene of the game. Professor Macdougal explicitly says racist things in every cutscene and part of the game he is in, and must be helped by the player. Agent Ross also expresses racist ideas (he is killable as the player). Jack, John Marston's son who you take control of at the end of the game, says a racial slur in one scene.

At the end of the main story, the main character, John Marston, is betrayed by the FBI agent he worked for, Edgar Ross, who sends an army battalion to kill Marston in his own home. After desperately fighting to protect his family, he gives them time to escape before facing the army head-on and being brutally murdered by a barrage of bullets. In the epilogue three years later, Marston's wife, Abigail, has passed away, and his son, Jack, takes on an outlaw lifestyle and avenges Marston, making his (and Arthur Morgan's from RDR2) efforts to prevent such a life for Jack futile.
