Laura Mallory fails again
A judge in Gwinnett County, Georgia ruled on Tuesday that the Potter books can stay in school libraries (after local concerned parent Laura Mallory tried once again to have them banned from schools and libraries). After all of these attempts in court, Mallory has finally admitted she may "need a whole new case from the ground up."

Thanks to everyone who e-mailed with the tip!

Posted by hpozfan May 30th 2007

does she really think she's gonna succeed? SHE'S BONKERS!!!


Posted by LookMeUp_AtSpinnersEnd May 30th 2007

She knows she won't win. She's just being stubborn for the sake of persistance. Silly woman, the judge likes Harry Potter.

So what this chick is trying to do, is take the books out of our kids' hands and replace them instead with a gun? What would you rather be doing, reading a book or doing drugs on the corner? I would rather read the books, then again that is just me. I think that the chick needs to take a step back and get her priorities straight before opening her trap.....She hasn't read any of the books so what is making her so angry? Is it that so many kids are reading them...so what, don't they have the right to read whatever they want? Well, she can be known as the Umbrigde-esque woman...you can't get very far if you act like a moron....

The Nazis banned books. Censorship of this nature is often a pre-curser to a tyrannical government (no matter what the size). How does her morality/Christianity gel with the fact that she is trying to do the same thing as murderers, dicatators and the like?


Posted by dobbyroxmysox May 30th 2007

GET OVER IT WOMAN GO GET A LIFE if she stops now she'll look lesser of an stupid idiot than she is already


Posted by ronnie_lurves_hermy May 30th 2007

HA!!! SO glad that that woman was stopped! If HP was removed from shelves, what would be next??! There are a lot of books out there that are centered around magic (Eragon, Eldest, Wizard of OZ, A wrinkle in Time, etc.) SHE GOT OWNED!!!!!


Posted by Pirate99 May 30th 2007

THAT STUPID WOMAN! SHE'S MAKING SUCH A BIG DEAL OUT OF NOTHING. FOR GOODNESS SAKES, NO ONE IS BECOMING "BEWITCHED" OR ANYTHING BY HARRY POTTER! SHE NEEDS TO SIT DOWN, SHUT UP, AND CONSIDER GETTING A LIFE FOR ONCE... WHAT IS HER FREAKIN' PROBLEM?!?!?!?!


Posted by PadfootBaby May 30th 2007

Heh.


Posted by fuzzyslippersx23 May 30th 2007

Posted by Harryfan20 May 30th 2007

Ihat3harry are you sure you belong on this website?


Posted by phoenix_in_flight May 30th 2007

Omg, I don't know what was going through her head! Did she just wake up one day and say "Hey, I think I'll try to ban one of the best book series in the world and get every1 mad at me!" ???


Posted by Squeaky May 30th 2007

HA HA HA IN HER FACE, WHAT'S UP WITH THIS WOMAN, I BET YOU ANYTHING SHE JUST WANTS ATTENTION OR WHATEVER, THERE'S MILLIONS OF HARRY POTTER FANS OUT THERE, ONE WOMAN CAN'T TURN THEM ALL DOWN, AND IF AND JUST IF SHE SUCCEEDS, SHE' GOT TO WATCH HER BACK CAUSE THERE'S MAD PEOPLE THAT WOULD BE SO FURIOUS AT HER!!! HAHAHA THAT'S BE FUNNY TO SEE!!!!


Posted by felixfelicis888 May 30th 2007

HARRY POTTER FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! sor ry L-Mall, looks like millions of kids are going to become freaks as you put it. somebody put that vid of fox news on mugglenet or Youtube!!!!!!!!!!!!


Posted by phoenixknight May 30th 2007

HEY GUYS WATCH THIS TRAILER ON YOUTUBE: IT'S CALLED JESUS VS. HARRY POTTER, IT'S PRETTY FUNNY, BUT THE ENDING REALLY DOES MAKE YOU TINGLE DOWN YOUR SPINE EVEN MORE THAN THE DOMESTIC TRAILER OF OOTP. IT MAKES YOU GO THINKING, HMMM, I GUESS THE CONCEPT OF GOOD VS. EVIL BETWEEN HARRY POTTER AND THE BIBLE ARE VERY VERY SIMILAR. WATCH THIS: http://www.youtube.com/wa tch?v=J-334RwJ26I&NR=1


Posted by xhproxx May 30th 2007

Mallory=malfoy.... hmmmm anyone notice the comparison?? haha take that you stupid overly dramatic over rated drama queen parent.


Posted by Butterbeer_Addict May 30th 2007

So...has she tried to ban The Wizard of Oz yet? That has witchcraft too.


Posted by bennyjoe81 May 30th 2007

Mallory has finally admitted she may "need a whole new case from the ground up." Yeah, like maybe a case that actually makes sense.


Posted by phoenix_in_flight May 30th 2007

Ihat3harry, you are DEFINATELY on the wrong site...........


Posted by Squeaky May 30th 2007

AHAHAHAHA I JUST LOOKED UP "Laura Mallory " ON YOUTUBE AND THERE'S THE FUNNIEST VIDEOS YOU HAVE TO CHECK THIS OUT http://youtube.com/watch? v=VbIAE8QlCo0


Posted by july21tillhp7 May 30th 2007

Ihat3harry- plz go rethink your reading life! ROFL!!!!!!!


Posted by Mnemone07 May 30th 2007

Hah! Go figure...has anyone here read The Body of Christopher Creed, by Carol Plum-Ucci? Because Mallory reminds me a lot of Creed's mom.


Posted by dementors_madness May 30th 2007

It's a bit sad that she's devoting an enormous chunk of her life and time to something so trivial. With all of that drive and ambition, she could be doing great things for a meaningful cause, instead of trying to ban a book that promotes values and gets children to read and think. I admire the courage of her convictions, but really now, the whole thing seems a bit senseless in the grander scheme of things. Especially when you consider what's REALLY evil in this world.


Posted by xxILoveFred_Geroge_Ron May 30th 2007

Who does she even think she's kidding?!! Harry Potter can't be banned. It's inspirational and kids/almost everybody enojoys reading them!!! There's no wayy in hell HP is EVER gonna get banned!! I LOVE HARRY POTTER!! I love all her books!


Posted by purplepeopleeater92 May 30th 2007

HA IHAT3HARRY, YOU'RE SO STUPID. RAAHFULLS!! ELOHELS! ELEMAYOHS! HAHAHA! seriously, though, get a life. you're probably just Laura Mallory in disguise. Thin disguise.


Posted by Laewin May 30th 2007

No person in their right minds is going to give her the verdict she wants. Frickin idiot. Give up, woman. Or read the books. But no... they're evil. They would corrupt her. Psh. More like she would corrupt the book!


Posted by july21tillhp7 May 30th 2007

purplepeopleeater92- your probably right


Posted by Patronus_Potter May 30th 2007

ha woww. you'd think that laura mallory would learn by now that SHES NEVER GONNA WIN. oh well. all those harry potter books that she never read must have stunted her brain. =]


Posted by xhproxx May 30th 2007

ihat3harry if harry sucks so much y r u on the main harry potter website??


Posted by She_Who_Must_Not_Be_Named1 May 30th 2007

Perhaps we should kid nap her, tie here down to a chair, and get the audio books then force her to listen to all six!


Posted by Patronus_Potter May 30th 2007

ihat3harry: ok, hun, listen to me. do you have no life? why would you sit there spelling 'harry sucks' a billion times? even someone who was obsessed with harry potter would not spend their lives spelling 'i love harry' over and over and over and over and over again. dude. get a life. and stop bothering the people who like harry. ok? thanks.


Posted by Harryfan20 May 30th 2007

OT: JK Rowling's agent has just confirmed that she may pen an additional book about Hogwarts and the Harry Potter characters based on the volumes of notes she kept as she wrote the Harry Potter series. This was in my local newspaper!!! Don't know if it's 100% confirmed or not.

Posted by xxILoveFred_Geroge_Ron May 30th 2007

Why are you here anyways? I dont know you would come to this site if you hate harry anyways. god, you're attitude is just like that laura BITCHroy.


Posted by PhoenixHollowsGirl May 30th 2007

HAHAHA!!! You're not gonna take HP away from OUR libraries!!! Well, actually, what do I care!?!?!? I OWN them all!!! I bought the last 2 the day they came out, as I was too young to do that with the first 4. BEAT THAT YOU OLD LADY!!!! You'll NEVER get the better of Harry Potter fans!!!!! WOOT!!!!


Posted by xxILoveFred_Geroge_Ron May 30th 2007

I meant to say that about Ihat3harry lol


Posted by Shmookness May 30th 2007

At the bottom of my MuggleNet page I have a "p". What does this mean and is it bad or good? Does anyone else have one? It's right under where it says "post comment".


Posted by Goldmare May 30th 2007

Good bye and Good riddance!


Posted by hpgirl_91 May 30th 2007

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA YES!


Posted by Shmookness May 30th 2007

But the question is.. Why..? Why does she hate Harry Potter so much? Is she jealous of J. K. Rowling? Do they have some mysterious past? Why is she working so hard to keep these books off the selves? Has she even read the books? Don't make assuptions and judgments of something you know little about. Is she that much of a Christian? Is the THAT crazy about Christanity? Is she THAT crazy about her reilgion? Why? Why do you keep fighting a losing battle? What is the point? Laura, let's share the love of Harry Potter. There are worser books out there than Harry Potter. Much worse. Trust me. Why you focus all your energy on Harry Potter when you can focus all your energy on taking a book that is truly bad off the selves?


Posted by WesleyIII May 30th 2007

Yeah!!! Go Gwynett County Judge person!


Posted by honeydukes0209 May 30th 2007

what a frickin' loser! her attempt was totally useless! i mean, she hasn't even READ THE BOOKS!!
