Remember in HPPS/SS, when Vernon saw wizards and witches in their
robes on his drive into the city to go to work and he thought they
were members of some strange group collecting money in public? And
as they waited for Hagrid on Privet Drive, McGonegall commented to
Dumbledore that some w's and w's were getting careless and being seen
in public?
Vernon and Petunia hate magic because it's different and weird and
wouldn't fit into their neighbourhood.
