Tiny little correction - actually, we do. In book 5, Lily tells him off 
for hexing other students in corridors "for fun". You may well be right 
in that he only hexed Slytherins. In JKR's universe it does not count 
against him being a wonderful person, apparently.

Oh, and please don't say that James and Sirius are Ron. I really like 
Ron after book 7, that's insulting to him. James and Sirius were spoiled 
rich kids, Ron is nothing like them.
