The Twins are bad, Harry is bad, but Draco is good and so is Snape...?

Just as there's a difference between breaking someone's nose and
gutting them? Remember, on the train Draco was completely in control
and accomplishes exactly what he wanted to accomplish: and it wasn't
Harry's death. In the bathroom Harry is confused (Slytherins have
feelings?) and flailing (Draco fights back?) and he does something
out of panic which nearly ends in Draco's death. There *should* be
different reactions from each boy in each scene.

vmonte:
It would have been very stupid of Draco to kill Harry in the train 
don't you think? He was, afterall, the last Slytherin in that 
particular compartment. And once Harry's body was found, it would 
have been a matter of time before Draco would have been fingered. 
Getting himself into Azkaban at the begining of term would have made 
killing Dumbledore that much harder, don't you think?

I have a question for you. Have you ever seen Draco do anything nice 
for anyone? Have you seen him show compassion or tolerance for anyone 
other than those connected to the DEs in some way?

Because I have seen Harry feel compassion for Snape (penseive 
memory), Draco (in HBP), and even Tom Riddle (in HBP). And yes, 
killing is not an easy thing--even if your a hateful person like 
Draco. He may have had trouble killing Dumbledore, but I'm not so 
sure about anyone else.

Draco made his choice to become a DE willingly, of his own free will.
He made a pact with the Devil and the Devil is not going to let him 
off the hook so easy...
