Werewolves killed an entire family. Dad, Mum, kids. Only one body wasn't bloody found, so that poor kid has been taken off to who knows where. He must be so scared, and Authorities haven't had any real leads outside of knowing what attacked them. If you have any information relating to the case, contract the Auror Department at the Ministry of Magic.

There is a reminder with attacks such as these people should make themselves aware of when full moons are and set up wards, if possible.

I'm trying to gather information. Its horrible. Some of the werewolves take the proper precautions, others have no respect for the welfare of others.

They were just little kids. And the youngest is still missing, either dead somewhere or turned into one of them.

If werewolves are attacking that means the ones that do lock themselves up to protect people are going to get locked up permanently by the people. And it won't change the fact that these people are dead.

Some people are uncommonly cruel. The fact that it was children makes this even worse.

I think its unfair to punish those who were vicitims themselves, those who try to do right by people the best they can. I know it won't change that...but every one of them that keeps the people protected by doing all they can to make sure they don't attack, we shouldn't condemn them. It wasn't their choice to be that way.

You didn't see it. There was nothing but blood everywhere.

I'm not saying it's fair or that it's right, I'm saying that's what will happen. I've already seen the articles set to run.

I've seen very similar scenes. I'm sure I can picture what it was like all too well.

Shit, shit, shit Is the Ministry talking about taking action?

Not that I know of yet, but with the way the articles are looking the public is going to be badgering them to soon.

That's not good. I mean, for some cases, it is, but for the ones that are actually civil...this isn't good at all. I hope they take some things into consideration.

They won't, we're very good at inciting people to believe certain things.

You know one, no one reacts like that normally...

That's what I'm worried about. I've taken notice.

Any known werewolves are going to get severe public backlash most likely.

Some of them deserve it. But not all of them.

It's a tragedy. No one would want that to have been their family.

'Tragedy' is debatable. My family was murdered by muggles and their unworthy spawn who shouldn't have magic. Forgive me for not being compassionate.

Shouldn't? The fact that they're born without magic means about should or shouldn't, it just is. And your family's murder is regrettable, but then shouldn't you feel more sympathy for another family who was also destroyed for no reason instead of being completely irrational and illogical about the situation?

Then your right to pass judgment is flawed.

The problem with the wards is that they can sometimes be penetrated, especially if the werewolf is working with an accomplice. I hope they find the person responsible.

There isn't much evidence to go on from what's been released.

They could have done something to warrant it. Maybe pissed someone off and they sought out revenge.

That's why there's a justice system in place. Taking the law into your own hands in not redeemable.

It's been done for centuries without the Ministry's knowledge or catching on, so why should things change now? That'd push us even closer to being like them.

You mean pushing you closer to being civilized, being rational? Laws are there for a reason.

Mudbloods aren't civilised. They're barbarians who are filled with nothing but disease and shouldn't even coexist within our world. That's what I mean. The laws once tried to forbid them from even knowing about us, but it's people like you, those who insist that change is always for the best and that we should contaminate ourselves until the point where we no longer exist, that kept it from staying in place.

I insist on the truth, no matter what it may be. And your truth is severely distorted. Our laws were developed by wizards, not muggles. We have no one to blame but ourselves for our own laws.
