Betsy:
I think Snape was absolutely correct to chastise Harry, and take away 
points.  No matter the circumstances, you cannot allow students to 
curse other students.  Something Harry was perfectly honest about 
doing.  Allowing Harry to get away with that type of behavior is not 
being kind to him.

And in that scene, Snape was actually being nice, for Snape.  No 
sneering commentary on Harry's character, no excessive point-
reduction (ten points for an attempted curse seems fairly small to 
me).  Snape wasn't being mean, he was being a professor.
