[HPforGrownups] What's good about the good guys?

My favorite good guy, especially after DH, happens to be Molly Weasley. As a mother, she makes me proud. She had one son harmed (George's ear), one son on the run and in the middle of it all (Ron), one son dead (Fred) and a daughter being threatened. She totally pushed aside the Molly we thought we knew and showd what she could be. A fiercely protective mother who would do any and everything, including kill, in order to save her children. I just couldn't see all that happening to her, with Bellatrix trying to kill her and her daughter, and she just use a disarming spell. I'm sorry. Bella was going for the kill. Why shouldn't Molly? Molly wanted to make sure she didn't have to worry about her kids' safety and took out what was making them unsafe. So I applaud Molly Weasley and all the moms out there that wouldn't hesitate to do is necessary to ensure the safety of their family.

I also applaud any of those "good guys" that knew it necessary to do unconventional things in order to win the war. That includes the good guys using evil spells. The way I feel about it, if someone is trying to kill you with a sword, are you going to use a whiffle bat against them? Do you know how fast that fight will end. So if one of our favorite goodies have to go outside of their comfort zone and use the same spells the baddies are using, good for them. It's war.

Oh, and as for Dumbledore? I think this book made him a little more human for me. The man was majorly flawed.
