Karen L. here:
 Don't let us forget that Harry is a teenager, and as one, is very 
selfish and self centered--as I am sure we are were during that 
time in out lives.  All those hormones running through the body 
makes one a little crazier than they normally would be.  Although 
with everything he has been through, he may be "grumpier" than 
everyone else, and that may put a bigger "cruel streak" in him.  
But I feel he is not a cruel person.
