Potioncat:
Serius Black is dead because of a lot of things that happened.  Even 
if everything had gone as it did, if Black had not taunted Bella he 
might not be dead.  If Black had followed intructions and waited to 
give DD the report, he might not be dead..both because he wouldn't 
have been there and because DD would have gotten there sooner.  If 
DD had not left Hogwarts in the first place, neither Hagrid nor 
McGonagall would have been injured and Harry would have been better 
protected...

I don't see the value in choosing one person to blame.  Or by saying 
if this one thing, and this one thing only, had been different...
