You're asking for too much from many in this crowd.  Most of the same bunch putting the onus on this kid for doing something every ONE of them have done as kids at one time or another without being killed for it are the VERY same ones who wanted Alexandra Ellis to get off easy for drunk-driving/hit-and-run because "she was a young kid who made poor choices."  Three guesses what difference causes the different attitudes.  If these folks had any insight or understanding that others have the same hopes and fears as they do, and deserve the same respect, they wouldn't presume to place blame so easily.  But they don't.
