Pippin:

Isn't that one of the problems when dealing with real evil?How 
many people have died, in Oswiecm and the gulags and 
Rwanda, because evil is beyond our imagination?  I think it's very 
realistic that Harry's problems with Snape seem more real than 
the menace of Voldemort, or sad to say, Darfur.

 And, sorry, eyewitnesses to murder are seldom available, not if 
the murderer has anything to say about it.

Constantly? No. We don't witness all  the potions classes or 
even all the occlumency lessons -- only the ones where Snape 
is particularly harsh.
