I can say absolutely nothing about your example one way or the other 
because your thought experiment does not contain enough information 
to be constructive. You have one man chasing another man for unknown 
reasons and you ask me to make a moral judgment. I can not. Man A 
may be a monster, Man B may be a monster, perhaps both are, perhaps 
neither are, who knows. You need to tell me more.

Not knowing the answer to a question is not weaseling, not knowing 
the answer but pretending you do is weaseling.

Well I guess that's the difference between you and me, in my book it 
does. Of course morality comes in degrees as do likes and dislikes, 
so "wrong" might be a little too strong a word, "inappropriate" 
might be better.

If Snape is not afraid to tell Fudge about it, the leader of the 
wizard world, and tell him in a very direct, forceful, downright 
rude manner then I don't see why he wouldn't tell the students, or 
anybody else that asked.
