Kneazle:
That is a good point. Draco is frozen.
But I think Draco is more likely the Regulus Black of his generation.
I see nothing in the books to indicate that he is anything other than
a petulant, spoiled, whiny, cowardly, bigoted, vicious, nasty little
boy.
I don't think he has it in him even to make a good deatheater.
