Yes that may seem like it would be the case but
Snape's hatred of
Harry is a carry over from Snape's school days with
James Harry's
father. Is it right to just discipline Harry and Ron
in this case
or should all involved received detention? I am not
saying that it
is wrong for other professors to treat Malfoy as a
student and
discipline him when it is needed. What I am saying is
this the
punishment should be fair and precise and not based on
what one
student says as it was in this case. Malfoy said that
Harry tried
to curse him when the truth was that they had actually
tried to
curse each other at the same time. When Harry and Ron
tried to
explain this to Snape they both received detention and
Malfoy got
nothing. In The Prisoner of Azkaban Malfoy walked into
class late
after going to the hospital wing and being treated for
the wound
from Buckbeak and all Snape said at that time was to
settle down if
that had been Harry or Ron it would have been
detention or 50 points
a piece from Gryfendor. Is it really fair to show
this much
favoritism to one student? In my opinion I think not
if you punish
one all should be punished as it would seem in this
case.
