  Still, I guess you're free to equate a school club formed illegally to learn
a forbidden subject with the French Resistance in the midst of an actual
war, and label Marietta as a MONSTROUS, VERY EVIL 15 year old who 
should have been executed. You might consider though that very few
others here (if any?), even those who think Hermione's vengeance was 
well-played and well-deserved, seem to agree with your view. Could it
be that your view is a little too extreme?
   
  Dantzel:
  I think that on these lists, people are not always supported 'vocally' because it's assumed that someone else will do it, but I also think that Marietta earned her punishment. YES it's acne and YES it'll be psychologically damaging... hmm. I think human beings are somewhat selfish, and that in such situations, if you are trying to fight for a cause, you have to protect 'your own', and if someone turns on you, you have a responsibility to the others and yourself to know who it was and to know who you can trust.
   
  Now, if Hermione had devised a spell that would chop the sneak's hand or tongue off, that would be more serious.
