Is insulting Smeagol logical? NO! Mistrust is, but not mean accusations and insults. Sam is a disgusting cruel bully.
Point taken Willie, but Sam a disgusting cruel bully? C'mon now! Alright so Sam did behave childishly, but you have to take into cosideration that with Gollum's track record he's not exactly the type of person(or personlike creature) that you would naturally trust.
Yes, Sam's actions were rash and unfair but so were Smeagol's! The first time Sam meets Gollum it's due to Gollum attacking him and Frodo in his sleep, I know I would have trouble trusting him after that!
So I don't think blame falls with either of them specifically, but both of them instead. Gollum shouldn't have been so darn untrustworthy and bad natured, and Sam should have been more understanding.
