My reading of the HBP turned me into a Snape hater. I used to enjoy 
the literary genius of Harry's black and white hatred of Snape until 
I read the OOTP. Their relationship gained a deeper level with 
Harry's trip into Snape's Worst Memory. We saw the human side to 
Serverus, and had to wonder what kind of a person Harry's father had 
been, now after the HBP, we have to wonder what kind of person Snape 
is. 
I know there have been many posts theorizing whether DD planned for 
Snape to kill him as a way for Snape to become Voldemort's 2nd in 
command, but to them I say this: what kind of character would kill 
the only person who has treated that character with nothing but 
trust and friendship? DD was the only person to stick by SS, he kept 
SS out of prison, He defended him to the Order, and he gave SS a 
job. What kind of person would be able to kill DD after DD had done 
all that for them even if it was part of DD plan? The answer is 
simple: a Death Eater could. 
	Snape took from me my favorite character, and for that I 
vilify him. DD always believed the best in everyone, and surly that 
was his downfall with Snape, but can we fault DD for Snapes actions? 
DD pleaded with Snape, and yet he was cold blooded enough to kill 
him like a dog in the dirt. For this, Snape is, in my book, worthy 
of death at the hands of Harry. In fact, I think I will start an I 
hate Snape group here on Yahoo! Snape is pure evil and in my eyes, 
should be treated as such for the reminder of the series. 

John who will be gauging the responses to find out if opening up a 
Snape hater club is worth it.
