Well, of course my interpretation of this question and answer is much 
different than yours. :o)

I see absolutely nothing clear in Rowling answer. Come to think of 
it, even questions is formulated interestingly. Not - "Why did Sirius 
sent Snape to the Shack?", but "What MADE Sirius sent Snape to the 
Shack?"

Hmmm, could Sirius be under Imperius too? :) (I don't really believe 
in it , for the record)

I place much more importance on "you will find out more". I feel that 
theri backstory will be very significant and the reasons will become 
clear later, but to me, not yet.


Of course, they hated each other. I just think there was something 
else besides bullying going on. I have no problem beleiving that 
Sirius became incredibly angry. I just want to know WHY and I believe 
that that reasons may excuse him.
