Snape deserves some understanding, so does Black. This is not to 
excuse them, or absolve them of responsibility for their actions as 
adults . . . Maybe a lot of Black's bullying towards Snape was 
because Snape reminded Black of where he came from; he was hitting 
out at his parents and people like them.

That's the best argument for sympathy for Snape I've seen so far. Of 
course, you had to drag Sirius into it, but I can't deny the 
possibilities you raised about Padfoot's motivations. Good insights.
