"Y'know what, Blaze? Count me in." He turns to face the crowd, visibly angry. "I've seen these creatures. Fought them, and I'll tell you this. They can't - won't - be reasoned with. Blaze told me they're pirates. I dunno much, but violence looks like the only way here."
Palmer's finally figured out what's going on with the creatures. Well, mostly - he knows there are pirates involved, and he figures that's why they weren't willing to answer his questions. They were prey to the creatures, and Palmer's finished with being prey under any circumstances. He was prey to the Thing, and now he's prey for these creatures, and he's not having it anymore.
Palmer's lax with the law, but he obviously has lines about picking on defenseless refugees and hoarding food in a time of starvation. And especially killing. He doesn't know what the Fallen are or why they steal, but at this point it's a matter of survival, and Palmer has to live. After he helps kill the Fallen, he's going back to Outpost 31 to kill the Thing. This is partly practice for an even more dangerous enemy.
"I think I'd do best either on vanguard or rearguard duty. I've seen these things. I know what to expect some." He smirks. "Besides, I wanna see if the one I shot remembers me."
