Hmm. You know. I think that Mr. Running From The Law is right. I think it's time that remind people that they shouldn't villify innocents on account of things they cannot help.

DOES ANYONE ELSE HAVE ANY OTHER BOYCOTTY IDEAS? We can put up lots and lots of posters, but well, as we've shown and been shown in the past, it usually doesn't take long until they get vandelised. We need multiple methody things before they like, re-put up the anti sticking charms on the walls.

Not that there aren't ways around that, but you know. We don't really want to be hanging around there all day and chance getting caught.

Hahaha, whoops. Apparently tea kettles CAN melt if you leave them on the heat long enough...

That is AMAZING. Despite the fact that I'm going to kick Sean's bum for hanging out in Knockturn by himself.

What in the world did you ask for in a lady's dress shop?

Sean says that the scum in Knockturn are puppies compared to some of the stuff he saw (including, but not limited to, human sacrifice in India). Don't worry about him.

... well, let's just say I didn't get to try anything on. But I asked after different things and appeared rather ignorant of a wizarding lady's undergarments!

...Seriously? Ew. Ha, I think we've all dealt enough with fake human sacrifices. The real thing would be kind of freaky.

So no crossdressy clubbing plans for you in the future?

What about fishnets?

Dammit, why can't the Death Eaters ever have secret lairs somewhere COOL, like underground nightclubs and shit. That would be so much more fun to infiltrate, none of this purist party pinky-out bullshit.

Well, you know, I wear fishnets below my trousers in perpetuity so it's not like you're asking anything that's particularly extraordinary there.

Lair or no: I do, however, think that we ought to take said information to the airwaves and wasn't James talking about doing a little physical vandalism/demarcation of the shoppes in question?

Oh HOHO is that so. Iiiinteresting.

But yes, the list is definitely going out on the radio, absolutely. And I don't think that there is anything wrong with petty vandalism when a service isn't being provided to those who deserve it.

How about doing a bit of the converse as well? Spending a bit of extra money at those businesses who do still sell to Muggleborns. Nothing like watching your neighbour making money while you're not to make you sit and think.

I feel a bit bad about that too because I don't want to chance putting Damo out of a job (even if I've been trying to get him to transfer to S&J's since back when I still worked there). It's a sucky situation.

And we can't exactly just leave Roland's off the posters or anything in case people wonder why and all.

At least Roland being a right arse will make it a bit better.

Yeah, I think if like, there was a dispute between the two owners, and that Roland wasn't just merrily going along with whatever that fucker that Snape works f that other owner, it'd be a different story.

Don't feel bad. The shop should be boycotted. Ideally, I want it closed down -- and at the same time, I don't want it to run out of business, because where else can you find the things Roland gets? Bit of a conflict there for me, too, but again, don't worry about it.

When we do the radio next time, that is definitely going on there.

Maybe we could do pamphlets that we pass out at homes explaining which ones DO still cater to muggleborns, and we could start putting those up in the next batch of posters. Then again, putting them on the posters makes me worry that'll just up the chance that more pressure's going to put on those people from the Ministry to stop it.

Agreeing with Dung. It's better to let them know that there are still alternatives even though they're boycotting the purist shops.

I'm trying to come up with a list. Luckily most of the ones in Diagon seem to be speciality shops that can be lived without, and the ones in Hogsmeade are the stores that are really going to hit people hard. Which is a bummer, because that's the only all-wizard village left.

I guess that says something.
