"I blame the scout leader who evidently knew the boy wasn't able to be as responsible as the other scouts were- and who evidently didn't watch him constantly. And I blame the parents for letting him go into the wilderness to begin with."

Ya forgot to blame Bush.

Very funny!
So you don't think any of the adults are at fault here? If the boy has a mental disability that he can't control, isn't he the responsibility of the adults entrusted with his care?
If he's not ADHD, then he did a stupid thing- as adolescents are wont to do, but all those scouts are children and were entrusted to the care of the person(s) who took them camping.
