I thought I will take a break from this topic for a while, but I 
think I need more clarification.

Why am I not talking about the book, when I am speculating about 
potential consequences Umbridge could have forced upon DA members?

Now ** of course** this is speculation, but this is **canon-based** 
speculation, no?

We ** know** about what Umbridge does to people who resist her. 
Granted, mainly on the example of Harry, but not only because her 
Decrees are written towards all students.

So, when I am saying that based on the **fact** that Harry was put 
in front of Wizengamot and based on the **fact** that Umbridge was 
about to put Cruciatus on Harry, do a bodily damage on Fred and 
George, she **could** have put all DA members in front of Wizengamot 
and/or physically hurt them, is it ** so** far fetched to think that 
Umbridge could have done that?

Not to me. Why? Because Umbridge **already** did those things to 
people who resist her and what do DA members did? Resisted her, 
right?

So, to me I am talking about stuff that definitely could have  
happened. I am **speculating** but based on similar circumstances 
that happened in canon already.

JMO,
