Now I'm perfect? Yay, another stupid straw man.
Matter of fact, I'm hopelessly imperfect. But, I do accept the consequences of my own stupid choices. When I got burned because I played with fire, I took my lumps. Any damage to my reputation was, in the end, my own fault.
How did you play with fire and what lumps did you take?
"When I got burned because I played with fire, I took my lumps."
How about if you got decapitated because you played with fire?
I think even you will agree that these boys got more than "lumps" for their mistake.
I ask again: How did you play with fire and what lumps did you take?
You have no clue what these boys may be thinking inwardly or have said to their families about that night. You assume the boys have not taken responsibility for having the party, but you have no idea whether or not they regret it and if so, why. So just get over yourself.
