The movie's final, bloody coda hammers home its strangely powerful and absolutely nihilistic political message: Everything sucks as much as it possibly can, and even if you're named something as awesome as Bob Lee Swagger, there's not much you can do about it.
Swagger's one-man attempt to clean up the streets of Washington is presented as a futile, almost symbolic gesture.
