If I had been this kid's mother, I would most definitely have turned him in. What kind of moron have you got to be to throw a fire extinguisher from a roof, into a crowd of people? University material? Probably not. Ironically, his sentence is about as long as it'd take for him to get a degree.
I agree it was a moronic act, but my problem is with the sentence bearing in mind nobody was actually hurt(admittedly more by luck than judgment) but compared to the lenient sentences handed down to drunk drivers who kill, paedophiles who groom kids, and the like, it seems unduly harsh.
