Sakura isn't near as mature as Sasuke and Naruto. She's undeserving of Naruto's affections and the opposite is true about Sasuke.

Anyways, Sasuke's crimes only pale in comparison to Danzo's because he was stopped/misled all the time. Or do you doubt that he would kill Sakura if she was in his way to becoming more powerful? He was just as power-hungry as Danzo. That's why he left Konoha for Orochimaru.

The thing is, there's no argument that'll make me "like" Sasuke (I don't dislike him, either)... because all his character development felt unrealistic and maybe a little bit weird.

Either way, he's not deserving of all the pity and understanding that people have towards him. Hell, he was admired by everyone, whilst Naruto was shunned by everyone.

Conclusion: Naruto went the good path, he went the evil path.
