Then again if she did do something foolish he would have grounds to arrest her. In truth he didn't particularly want to, preferring to ride the streets of dark wizards, not hysterical or violent women. Still, there were limits to what he'll tolerate in any situation.

"I fear Miss your hopes this campaign you are running would ruin the Daily Prophet isn't going to work.. in truth, a far better use of your time would be encouraging women to write the paper to protest the use of the discriminatory ink. Its the only way they would know it wasn't being well received among the female population."
