If I understand you correctly, Draco's view of the Dark Arts is probably
limited. He knows that his father was involved, but not to the full
extent. I really don't think Draco understands the extent of V's hatred.
Draco was raised after V fell, so his concept of what the world was like
with V around is diminished. I don't think he understands how dark those
days really were. We'll have to wait and see what he thinks when he sees
good ol' dad killing all sorts of people. I believe Draco will be a
person who is going to have to choose between "what's right, and what's
easy." I think he'll have his own personal struggle to deal with.
