A mass protest was held today in Atlanta Georgia of all places, blocking traffic for 2 square miles. The magical community turned out in droves to protest the release of the New Harry Potter book, The Half Blood Prince. Elves, fairies, witches and the like, walked up and down the streets surrounding the biggest book store in town. Carrying signs and chanting out, “Down with Harry!” We stopped a few of the protesters and asked why they had gathered here in force, here is what they had to say.

“It brings to much about us into the light, how are we to do our work if people are on the look out for us,” one Fairy is quoted as saying.

“All of these want-to-be witches who’ve read the books, running around giving us a bad name,” A witch complained heatedly.

“J. K. Rowling, should have know when she put out these books it would bring up to many questions about our world,” a passing elf said, who looked suspiciously like Dobby from the 2^nd movie.

One lone dragon sat on the opposite side of the street protesting the protesters. He held his small picket sign proudly despite having been egged earlier in the day, sadly though the egg has started to smell from being in the hot afternoon sun. When asked his stand on this matter he is quoted as saying, “There is nothing wrong with the books, they’re great. Go Harry! There is nothing wrong with bringing light to our way of life.”

The dragon quickly flashed what looked like a peace sign to the opposite side of the street, earning him another volley of eggs with a few tomatoes thrown in for fun. My self and the camera man had to dive out of the way to avoid being hit. He shouted out a quick reply, but because of editing standards we are unable to add them, again flashing his peace sign, which was really one middle finger.

We where again forced to find cover, when a blue car flown past, spraying the original protesters with water, which brought the dragon to his feet in a thunderous cheer. The driver is reported to be a young boy with bright red hair. His accomplice was also a young boy, with black hair and small framed glasses. When all was said and done all of the protesters where either wet or egged. A few beings left their posts, but returned later after getting cleaned up.

I will bring more as the story unfolds, this is Silver Moonlight reporting, good night.
