This is your imagination, plain and simple. *Vigilant* teenagers in 
the *middle of war*?!  What I see is a rather peaceful afternoon and a 
gang of bullies taking on a most likely victim for no better reason 
than that they are bored. And Sirius's excuse is not only lame; it is 
also hypocritical, because he tries to present their bullying as a 
sort of a holy crusade for the cause of the Good. Which is most 
certainly *not* true.
