Who says Sirius ever attacked Ron?  True, he entered with force 
(but to a painting, not that hard for Filch to 'expertly' re-finish), and 
was standing over Ron with a knife, but did he ever hurt Ron?  
Let me think..... uh..... Nope, never touched him, he in fact ran 
when he was discovered.  Remember, he was looking for 
Scabbers here, and NOT Ron.  Had Seamus owned Scabbers, 
(and Sirius found out about it elsewhere) he would have been 
standing over Seamus's bed, looking for Scabbers.

Smart, who is still defending Sirius, thinks he is most like 
Seamus (try and dispute that one).
