Our magic doesn't protect them it protects us, so does the statute. Its got not much to do with their well-being at all." Jim pointed out, speaking kinda lazily from the front of the room. He'd have winked at the pretty 'claw if he hadn't been sitting with his girlfriend.

"And you know, if muggles knew about us, we'd be in trouble. History shows that its human nature to attack and destroy stuff we don't understand or ar threatened by, that goes for wizardkind aaaand mugglekind you know. And, magic can't beat nuclear power."
