I'd rather never have to kill another person again--even you. However, that does not mean I'll not defend myself. My purpose has been to use the skills you insisted I develop to end this conflict. To ensure that Muggles, Muggleborn, Halfbloods and Purebloods all have an equal opportunity to live alongside one another without fear of oppression. You like to accuse me of righteousness but you fail to acknowledge what that really means. It means fighting on the side of right, avoiding harm to innocents (adult or otherwise) and only applying oneself to the minimum amount of carnage absolutely necessary to achieve one's goals.

I'm aware of where I've faltered--and of where the Order have not been perfect--but I dare you to tell me I was ever in the wrong about which side to support.
