I also wanted him to fight back but that would have
negated of his work as an double agent against LV. If
he had fought back (while none of the others that LV
killed had), then LV might have realized that Snape
was not what he had portrayed himself to be. One of
his last actions against LV was to take no action to
protect himself.
