There are over a hundred digest emails on my inbox, and i am not going
to rush through them... that way i would miss the discussions and then
repeat them over and over. However, there is something i need to get
out of my chest and so far i haven't seen anyone discuss yet, so if the
message title appeals to you please scroll down to the end of the
spoiler space.

Enough.
OK, so far i have been reading the different sides defending both Harry
and Snape. I agree with those that say that Harry was not very polite
nor respectful looking into Snape's memories, and i also agree with
those who say that Snape should be the adult of the two and behave
accordingly, resuming the Occlumancy lessons with Harry.
But my point is: Snape should never have removed his memories in front
of Harry! Please! If you have something you want to hide, why hide it
in front of other people and let them see where you are hiding it!
Sorry for the abuse of the exclamation marks, but i find it a bit silly
for an adult not to know that a teenager's curiosity will be stronger
than his or her good conscience. It would have been more logical if
Snape had put his memories into the pensieve before 6 o'clock, before
Harry arrives in his office, then put the pensieve away and then
welcome Harry for his class, and the same at the end, wait for Harry to
leave before getting those memories back. So yes, Harry did something
very wrong, but i think in a way Snape provoked him.
That's my point. Any thoughts?
