I spend a lot of time - maybe some of you would say too much time - thinking about my family. Lily was the cleverest witch I ever knew, and could also provide anyone with a much deserved walloping. But this is neither the time nor the place to eulogize her. People more eloquent that I ever was did that ten years ago, both her and my son. And I can't think about Harry, who we only knew briefly. What keeps me up at night is who they both could have been, what their contributions to society would be and how they would have further helped us as a group push our way into a good life. Because I have to believe that they would have. I know that they would have.
And do you know what else I know? Neither Millicent Bagnold nor Ted Tonks deserved the death they were given. Here's two more positively contributing people who sought to better their society. And why were they killed?
They were killed because Death Eaters are running rampant in our country, and Albus Dumbledore isn't doing jack shit to stop them. Now, Godric knows it was nigh impossible last time, but let me tell you if we work together we can do it. If we don't let them scatter us, we can band together and work to create a world in which all witches and wizards live, free to practice their craft and push us into the next century instead of keeping us in the Dark Ages.
[ORDER]I've had enough.
We know that Voldemort has one Horcrux, and we know that it's on its way to being destroyed. But what we don't know is how and where the next Death Eater strike would be. I propose we start our old patrols.
And I propose we put our own muscle behind Rufus Scrimgeour's candidacy.
