Emmalee walked up to the question box, trying to determine how to word her question. Each way she phrased it in her head it was more of a statement.
Having traveled in her previous job, she'd had the opportunity to try a carpet and the more she thought about the restriction in Britain, the more she couldn't understand.
Picking up a quill, she began to write:
Quote:
How is the ban justified on the basis of claiming that using a flying carpet tampers with the historical significance of a muggle item when we use enchanted brooms? I don't recall brooms being exclusively an item to be found in the wizarding world. Isn't the rich history of wizard usage of carpets, especially in other parts of the world, also worth of consideration? Carpets are just as much OURS as they are THEIRS, just like brooms, cauldrons, fireplaces and chocolate.
If there are other legitimate reasons for the ban, let us hear them. But it seems that claiming to respect muggle heritage is a soft excuse that doesn't pass muster.
Emmalee put the final period on her "question" and with a smug nod, dropped it in the box.
