Great essay, some of the responders seem to have rocks in their heads.
What gets me is that there are so many people that have no problem with what James Potter did, not only to Severus, but to other people as well.
Snape and James sit at totally different ends of the spectrum and as such both the characters they interact with as well as a lot of the readers react to and judge any identical actions differently. It was bad enough that James was good looking, rich, sporty, charming, confident, popular * and* the hero's father, but to make things worse, Snape was ugly, poor, surly, alone and one of the hero's main antagonists. It was always much easier to believe that Snape's actions were motivated by ill will than James'. The Marauders, the trio, the twins, Dumbledore, etc of course all fall in the same boat as James.
I know I myself am guilty of such behaviour. I suppose that's what's really bugging me about the twins...

And was the one I was automatically attracted to. I guess that's the true Hufflepuff in me, to feel such deep sympathy and compassion for such a person. That, and I am an abuse survivor, so I know that suffering myself.
I know some people will argue with me, but I think the doe was his Patronus not just because he loved Lily. I'll keep my reason to myself because I know this spot isn't safe from his haters.
As for Theresa Faustina's editorial, all I will say is, "I wonder if she feels the same eight years later." I can say much, much more, but...I won't. At least, not here.
The Prince's Tale brought me to tears not only for the poignancy of Sev's life, but also for myself. For the life of me, I still don't know what I did as a kid, but that's the point, right? You exist.
