BINGO!!

The kid's not a hero. Was he justified in doing what he did? Mmmmm...maybe, I might even say yes, but there is no way that I'm going to call him a hero.

The school administrators, though!! Now, there's a different story. If there is a villain in the whole nasty mess, it would be them. I place the entire responsibility square on their shoulders. Pure. Simple.
