Alla:

Um, not quite. We also know that this word is bad, just bad in itself 
in my opinion.


We have support from different sources - to name just two would be Ron 
and Dumbledore that *mudblood* is a horrible insult.

On the Tower, when DD seems to be concerned with the matters of life 
and death, he still takes time to remind Draco not to use this word in 
front of him.


Now if you put this addition to your chain, then it will be correct 
summary of my position.

It would be something like that.

1. The word *mudblood* is a horrible term to call anybody because 
several characters tell us so **and** explain why they think so.

2. Only people who are horrible bigots use it.

3. Because Snape uses it - he is a horrible bigot.


I mean, sure it is circular when you only put 2 and 3 together, but not 
when you add one in my opinion.


Alla.
