Yeah, part of my comment got cut off TT In the story he's definitely responsible for his actions, but it's just really important to realize and address what drove him there in order to help people like him. Based in the story, I think he didn't just start out wanting to be an awful person, so he would deserve a chance at redemption if he ever turned a new leaf, rather than getting threats to go die n stuff. He already went through that shit from the homophobes TT
The prof sucks yeah, but just keep in mind that he is a victim. IRL, I feel like he would deserve a lot of empathy, not only for being outcasted for being gay, but also for surviving a suicide attempt. Can't help but feel (a LITTLE) sorry for him for feeling bitter about this young love in a more accepting generation. Still, he a pedo, and there's that... That's not what I'm defending, he should go to jail for that and attempted kidnapping
