I don't see it fair to James when we judge him solely based on 
Snape's observation. Is Pensieve objective? Will it be distorted by 
the memory of the beholder? Even if Snape's memory is correct and 
objective, it's only one pcs of info we have with James. It doesn't 
give us a whole picture of James. I'm disappointed with Harry that he 
rushed to conclude his father being arrogant and cruel.
