" And I think I now have a handle on all you Snape lovers, you were in
all probably bullies just like Snape and you enjoy seeing Harry being
bullied. Takes you back to your school days when you were hurting
people doesn't it?"

I, Del, replied :
"Insulting people who think differently, and seeing things in
black-and-white are typical of kids and teenagers, not grown-ups..."

mcmaxslb answered:
"That paragraph is really hitting home, isn't it?"

Del replies:
I'm not sure what you mean by that. However I'd like to point out that
I have never -to my knowledge- insulted anyone (even insinuating that
you have been acting like a teenager is not an insult, it's just an
observation), and I try hard never to see things in black and white (I
have actually ruffled quite a few feathers over the years with my
tendency to introduce some grey in the most obviously black-and-white
matters). You, on the other hand, have insinuated that all
Snape-lovers were bullies in their youth and that anyone who doesn't
agree with your vision of Snape has got it wrong.
