Discrimination Sensastion
By Pansy P. Parkinson
Since the end of the latest Wizarding War, people have been protesting every little blasted thing they can wrap their little minds around. The current hot topic on the tip of everyone’s wands is wolfsbane potion for werewolves: Yea or nay? As expected, picketers are swarming outside of the Ministry to voice their discontent. What’s next, wizarding world? Government supplied blood for vampires? Governmentally funded habitats for giant spiders? Public schools for giants? Where is your money going?
The journal network has been buzzing with activity as well. Katie Bell spoke out about ending discrimination by discriminating against those with opinions of their own.
When confronted, she pompously states “if that makes me prejudice, I know lots of people that are.” Fortunately it appears that not everyone shares Bell’s bigoted viewpoint. Former Gryffindor Ron Weasley asks “Didn't you pay attention in classes at all?” while Neville Longbottom adds “Find me one that doesn't want to suck out my soul and I'll be willing to change my mind about that.” It doesn’t look like Bell is wavered in her opinion though, as she suggests to ship all those with a different opinion of her out to an unnamed island so she can have her way with the mainland. No word from precious Harry Potter, but then again if we’re shipping the nutters to an island, why not start with the Boy-Who-Lived?
Put that in your cauldron and stir it.
