* If poor Piggy wasn't frustrated enough by being bullied by Jack and his crew on the island, everything we know about his life pre-island is that he is an orphan who was raised by his aunt who owns a candy shop and even in school, he wasn't safe from name calling.

** Even worse, ''all'' the boys participated in his death. Not just sadists like Jack and Roger, but the littluns, Samneric, ''even Piggy and Ralph''. No one is safe from the hysteria, and everyone's got blood on their hands afterwards.

It doesn't come off as a bunch of cowardly hypocrites deflecting blame; it comes off as a bunch of frightened children [[BreakTheCutie breaking]] under the pressure of an impossible situation, and desperately trying to avoid [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone the knowledge of what they've done]] because that'll break them even further.
