  When they're caught Lupin will not only lose his only
  hope for a decent life, he'll also be separated from the only friends 
  he's ever had and the only thing that makes his transformations 
  bearable. Being accused of murder, should it come to that, would
  hardly be worse than what was in  store for him already. 

  It beats me why some of the people who are most anxious to see Harry
  whomp the butts  of everyone who ever made his life a misery  are equally 
  certain that JKR has made Lupin far too noble to do any such thing.

  Poor Lupin. I think his fear of loss of friends is one of the main reasons he isn't more forceful with Sirius or James. It's part of what makes him so pacific in those situations everyone is accusing him of being too passive on. One does tend to make a habit then of such things. I think the love of a good woman will really bring out the hero in ever so troubled Lupin. I'm guessing that you don't want to wish him a happy birthday today :D
