He must be daft to believe that.

a_svirn:
*Vigilante* is even more ironic. They were anything but. It is the 
Marauders who were law-breakers, not their victims.

a_svirn:
What do you mean by affected? That they were more inclined to 
violence than most, because of the war? I think you have no 
authority to make this statement either. There is nothing in canon 
to suggest that. And, you know, no one is more affected by the war 
than Harry, but we don't see him being *vigilante*, do we?
