 as half decent human being  and give Harry a little break. Since he

If that was  the original poster point (was it Eggplant?) then 
unfortunately I have to agree with it."

Actually, Gerry reacted when Eggplant put Snape and Draco in the same
bag, and I followed.

I completely agree that Snape was wrong to be mean to Harry. But he
was being his usual Snape : decidedly unconcerned with Harry's
emotional state. He never cared before, I didn't hold any hope that he
would care now. Especially since, for all we know, he might actually
have danced a little victory dance when he learned that Sirius was
dead... After all, in his eyes, Harry was wrong to care about Sirius
to start with...

Let's be honest : how many of us are sorry for Draco because his dad
is in prison? And yet, isn't it a terrible thing for a teenager to see
his adored father sent to prison? But many of us don't care, because
we don't like Draco. And so it is for Snape with Harry. Snape doesn't
care about Harry, so when Sirius died, Snape probably only saw his own
interest : Sirius is dead, yeah!! (Next on the list would be Lupin, I
guess)

Snape doesn't care about Harry, many of us don't care about Draco,
that's life : we tend to cry only with the people we didn't dislike
before tragedy hit them. I suppose it makes us all wrong...
