Sirius was not a Death Eater:
1. Perhaps he was not sure that Sirius was *not* a DE. Peter
Pettagrew was a member of the original Order and also a spy for
Voldemort. Presumably, the whole Betrayal-of-the-Potters thing by
their secret keeper was an *undercover* operation, not known to all
the rank and file Death Eaters (one of *them* could have been a spy--
like !Snape!)
2. It would be difficult to establish that Sirius was *not* a DE
without revealing that he (Snape) was one. ("See everyone, I have
this dark mark on my arm and he doesn't....") And Death Eaters were
being sent to Azkaban with few questions asked (professional Quiddich
players excepted).
3. Snape absolutely *hated* Sirius. He must have thought it was a
*dream come true* to have his arch-enemy from school days sent to
Azkaban for a life sentence for *any* reason. Why ask questions!?!
Christmas come early!! Elle
My reply:
I do not doubt that he may have had his reasons for feeling this way. I'm just saying that it is a possible reason as to why Sirius still was bitter towards Snape to this day. Personally, I think that it is obvious these men do not like eachother. However, I think and I may be crazy but if the tables were turned and Sirius was given the oppertunity to save his Snapes life he would do it...even if it was regretably.
