Patronus to all Order members

Public response is deafeningly positive. The entire country's either mad enough or desperate enough to take the Prophet's phony slant of everything being for our protection and not question anything they print. Registration will cost us every lead we've found and every suspect who has the means to get around this, and believe me when I say that's most every one of them. These Death Eater's have probably been using Dark magic most of their lives, nothing Barty or the morons in the courts do will change that.

This is a political blockade, pure and simple, against anyone wanting to defend themselves and anyone other than the Ministry who might take matters into their own hands when the job's left undone and shoddy. We can't fight, we can't defend, can't get word out or even escape in an incident, and all surveillance will be at a halt.

In a crisis most civilians would kill their pets if the law even hinted it would protect them. If we tolerate this, so will they, and Barty will keep playing his game of catch-up while those people die. If you do it and you're questioned, no word of any of the rest of us. It's time.

Hm. Dunno. I don't hear any consequences in this mess yet, so who knows. I can't imagine the Death Eaters are too happy about it either, though. So that's helpful, I guess.

Well. We'll manage, whatever Scrimgeour does. I'm with you.
