Is Richard a "bad boy?"

Personally I don't think that Richard is a bad boy, but rather he becomes a bad boy because of his environment. I do think that its not his fault that he does the majority of the bad things he does like when he goes and drinks at the saloon (21). However, some of the things that Richard does shouldn't be blamed on his environment like when he kills the kitten (11). I think that once he commits an act so bad as to kill someone or something innocent he has crossed the line from a bad environment to being a "bad boy." With the exception of this act, I truley think that it's the environments fault.
