February 18, 2007 -- HARRY Potter is not going to die.
But Professor Snape will.
Harry Potter will not hook up with Hermione. But his best friend will.
And Harry Potter will never see Dumbledore alive again. But Dumbledore will still manage to help him.
How do I know these things about the recently completed seventh and final book in the beloved Harry Potter series?
I don’t.
Like millions of other Potter-loving muggles, I’m just guessing. That’s half the fun.

There's blacks in Britain, even some shhhhh.... muslims. Thankfull the ROP doesn't show up in the wizarding world, they'd be natural death eaters.
"More murder, torture, kidnapping, theft, voyeurism, child abuse, animal cruelty, and interracial dating "
Why is "interracial dating" on your list?
Myrtle checking out Harry.
Wish there was a spoiler alert on this. Any chance the mods can put one on there?
Good. These days, it's just nice to find FReepers left who still have a sense of humor. They seem rare now. :-/
Since when is interracial dating a crime?
I'd noticed the lack of Moslems. The author fears for her life, perhaps, having observed the unfortunate case of Salman Rushdie.
No spoilers here, just fan conjecture.
OH, right. That was funny.
OK, read the thread. Joke. Nevermind.
Was just on a Ron Paul (the RINO surrender monkey) supporter thread -- they would have made that post seriously.
Sounds interesting.
Or the underlying "Attack terrorists before they attack you" message. Or the "putting your head in the sand doesn't change the fact that evil exists" message.
and interracial dating >>>
Bob Jones is that you?
I sympathize.
Torture - Neville parents were tortured into insanity and both Harry and Neville have been on the receiving end of the Cruciatus curse.
Kidnapping - Ginny Weasley was kidnapped by Tom Riddle and Alastor Moody was kidnapped by Barty Crouch, Jr.
Theft - Fred and George Weasley stole the Marauder's map from Filch. Mundungus Fletcher stole virtually everything of value from 12 Grimauld Place.
Voyeurism - Moaning Myrtle gleefully watches Harry undress and bathe in Goblet of Fire.
Child Abuse - The Dursley's treatment of Harry (beatings, starvation, isolation.)
Animal Cruelty - A rare Basilisk, perhaps the last of its kind had its eyes pecked out and was stabbed to death. Dozens of rare acromantulas were crushed beneath the wheels of a 1960 Ford Anglia in the Dark Forest. Hedwig was injured on purpose, as was Buckbeak.
Interracial dating - Fred Weasley and Angelina Johnson, Cho Chang and Cedric Diggory, Harry and Parvati Patil, Ron and Padma Patil, Harry and Cho Chang, Ginny Weasley and Michael Corner, Ginny Weasley and Dean Thomas.
The cloak of invisibility gave them some voyeurism moments.
See, Joe doesn't think Lavender is black. Although I suppose being pink could be a minority ethnicity ... (Zot, that was too dumb even for me :-).
>>>More murder, torture, kidnapping, theft, voyeurism, child abuse, animal cruelty, and interracial dating from J.K. Rowling.
I must have seen different movies and books than you.
Darned ghosts...
...and I weep nightly for the poor basilisk.
Thanks for the refs!
