So last night my friends and I decided that we were all going to go to the Donald Trump Rally in Columbus Ohio, our hometown. We went not in support of him, but to get extra credit in humanities. When we got in we decided we were going to silently protest until two college students came up us and asked if we were supporting him. They we’re a bit shocked when we told them that we weren’t. Trump was late on the stage but about 40 minutes of listening to him ramble about himself he decide to bring up terrorism. He began to speak about how we shouldn’t let in Syrian refugees anymore when the two collage students with us began to chant “Hating Muslims helps ISIS!” until Trump noticed. He kept looking at us, trying to talk over my friends who began joining in. Surrounding people told us to shut up but they kept chanting. Finally Trump had enough and told his people to “get them the hell out of here!” This is a video that I took before his people began to push and grab us forcing us to leave after exercising the first amendment of the freedom of speech. As we were leaving my friends and I were called the N word, N word lovers, terrorist, towel heads, faggots, fuckers, etc. (I think you get the point) later on news websites it states that there were only “two protestors” when there really were about ten of us. People commented in those videos that we were conducting illegal activity while his followers were giving us death threats. This experience was honestly one of the most terrifying things that I have ever done. It was worth it though, and not everyone there was in support of him. I just want you guys to know the truth, thank you for reading this far down too. Please share this so the incident gets more recognition.
But can we talk about how Snape is just a failure at his job, not even mentioning what a cruel asshole he is to children? He’s the “Potion Master” for 15 years, and while he’s a great potionmaker he’s an all around flop as a teacher. The only thing Snape does in class is humiliate his students - he never actually teaches them anything (Harry legit says this in HBP). They just follow the instructions from textbooks and if they do anything wrong, Snape only further belittles them.
By the time Snape is 16, though, he’s already great at the subject - he knows all the tips and tricks to make better potions. He KNOWS that textbooks are flawed, incomplete, and give inefficient instructions and has basically rewritten/improved almost all the potions in his textbook.
But he never shares that knowledge! He never passes on that know- how or make any attempts to change these obsolete potionmaking steps with instructions HE KNOWS are much more successful. Why not retake his old notes and give them to his students? Probably cause that would actually be beneficial to them, and Snape really couldn’t have that. Students? Learning??? Not on his watch!
tl;dr Snape is SUCH a douche and the worst teacher.
