Alexandra made mistakes, many of them colossal, but she had a sense of duty and didn't believe in free rides. Boris felt entitlement, and what did he give in return? Excuse the cliche, but if you're not part of the solution you're part of the problem.
Boris felt the world owed him a living. What he was owed, minimal, was a good kicking in the postier. And those who spawned and encouraged him deserved it as well.
It's the indolent and egotistic behavior of moral insects such as Boris that is ultimately used to justify revolution and bloodshed. We recently have had a situation in Iran where some "brave" men felt a sense of entitlement that resulted in rape, death, and probably the capture, mutilation and death of some of their fellow troops who were innocent of that evil. I have no patience--or leniency--for people who do not care or wish to understand that their selfish, immoral behavior impacts others.
