I am sorry, Betsy, but your claim here is simply not true. Canon to 
support "Snape is an abuser" argument was brought up many, many, many 
times.
 
It is your absolute right of course to NOT see abuse in these 
incidents, but some people do and of course I happen to think that it 
is a very reasonable interpretation.
 
 
Here are some posts for you. I selected those with quotes. If you 
would like more quotes, just let me know and I will be happy to 
provide them.
 
Erm, sorry to start with my post.
