Amiable Dorsai:
*You* have the right to keep your thoughts private.  Harry could
reasonably conclude that Snape doesn't, not from Harry.

Amiable Dorsai: 
And a man who, unprovoked, has been making Harry's life hell for five
years--and whose training in Occlumency has had the apparent
side-effect of opening Harry's mind even further to Voldemort.  Harry
took an opportunity to get intelligence on the enemy--and, whether
he's DDM or not, Snape has given Harry plenty of reason to believe
that he's Harry's enemy

Amiable Dorsai:
Tough noogies.  He might also have discovered that Snape was, in fact,
an unrepentant Death Eater.  Harry's been right when all the adults
were wrong too many times for him to miss an opportunity like that.


Jazmyn:
>  He is a CHILD...

Amiable Dorsai:
That very notion cost Sirius Black his life.  Harry is the target of
two forces--the Ministry and Lord Voldemort--and his adult allies are
treating him like a mushroom.  If Harry takes things into his own
hands, well, what did they expect?

Amiable Dorsai:
By treating him like a human being?

Amiable Dorsai:
Which he has, in fact, done.  More than once.

Amiable Dorsai:
As a result of the policy of keeping him "locked up".  Why would you
wish to repeat the same mistake again?
