All the houses immediately start betting on which house the shooter belonged to, and it is always Slytherin.

Casts a spell that gets them aligned with their gender so that they don't have to go through any of that? What, are the self-proclaimed activists gonna scream "ERASURE!!!" because the struggle would technically be over?

Here is an unrelated question about Harry Potter Universe schooling:

What happens once one leaves Hogwarts, (or one of the other schools)? Does one go to Wizard University? Wizard TAFE? Can one get one's Wizard Masters or Ph.D?

pretty much every adult in the Harry Potter universe seems to think that high school was the best years of their life, so I have my doubts about the wizard tertiary education system

There's a few transfers to the US schools for an exchange program.

God help you if you're from Hufflepuff, though.

If they find out you're a real soft boy from Hufflepuff at Hogwart's, your parents are going to have to broom in to eventually pick you up before the year's out.

You try to go back to Hogwart's, but it's not the same, anymore. You shy away from your old mates, you get kicked out for lashing out at someone (probably Hagrid) and threatening to kill a Slytherin if they loving touch you ever again.

There's good money in the wizarding trades. Don't be fooled, you don't need a fancy wizarding degree and thousands of dollars of wizard student loan debt. You can be making $25 an hour in ten years using magic to plunge toilets if you work hard.

My mate and me have a good racket going. Lemme savvy you up on it, eh?

He's got himself a real shite spell, I mean that literally! He can cause all the plumbings to just clog up. Don't ask me how he done come up wid it. Anyways, that's when the mister and missus of the house realize maybe they've got a problem and apparently getting caked in shite tryin' to clear it out is like being given clothes, so the house elves just can't figure out what to do and drown themselves while tryin' to fix it.

That's when I get an owl in my window.

I go down to the house, widdle my wand around in the water closet for about 5 seconds, and clear out the mess, elf and all.

No, I don't care about American Wizarding Schools. I wanna see Australian Wizard Schools.

Those wands they use in american schools are training wands the kids replace later. Not like those English wizards who keep their wands forever and hand them down like heirlooms along with faded china

These kid wands aren't much of a threat, but something you can only get in America are the longform wands. Longforms are the bad boys you need a shoulder sling and forearm grip to use. These wands sport a 400m range and average 90 AKPM (Avada Kedavras Per Minute), and they can be pulled from a locker at any time with your average Accio spell. Dangerous stuff, and normally illegal for kids to buy, but the savvy ones go to wand shows, where anything goes. They're normally out in bumfuck nowhere, but permits are a four letter word there, and they have mods for these bad boys like you wouldn't believe. Autoaim projectiles, solid matter piercing up to 6 inches of steel, and a special silencer you attach to your mouth so you can whisper spells and the wand will still register.

Just nutso stuff that belongs nowhere near a school. Yet just last week one was used in the David Copperfield High shooting out in New Jersey. Scary times.

Some dumb rear end kid blew his hand off with his wand, but hear me out:

He and his friends went to some underground troll surgeon and took his wand and told the troll, "Put it in me."

The troll tried to get them the hell out of his underpass before they further clarified.

One of the kids at the brilliant idea to replace his ulna bone in his right arm with his wand. Normally, this wouldn't be even considered, but one of them dipped into their dad's polyjuice potion and had their friend use it to claim he was the kid's mom and okayed the procedure. (There were a lot of questions of why the dad had a polyjuice potion supply to turn someone into the mom, but that's a different story.)

Anyway, the wand goes in the arm. What's the first thing the kid wants to do? Just wave his loving hand around and pull out a spell without a wand to act like he was MORE magical than magic. No one even knows what spell he was going for. The only thing they remember hearing was the 'boom'.

One of the guys said it sounded like a cross between an 'rear end getting hit with a paddle' and a 'cork popping', but this kid's right hand just exploded. Everyone's freaking out, the 'mom' is turning back into a teenager, the troll is screaming, and to make matters worse the kid with arm-wand starts shrieking in tongues.

Yeah, normally in a situation like this, he would have been disarmed (no pun intended), but the wand was still in his arm.

You know what you get when you start screaming in tongues, while covered in your own blood from self-mutilation, while 'holding a wand' from inside your own flesh?

No one else did, either.

Honestly, your better off working in a muggle job and doing quiet magic to get ahead, if a manager gives you poo poo, just rewrite his memory over and over, sure that can cause a magic aneurysm where blood will shoot out all there holes but gently caress muggles.

this is by far the most realistic “magic exists” scenario

although I suppose that a “gated-community/parochial school with class divisions” situation does make sense since that is a thing people do to each other

If Hogwarts Legacy is anything to go by, you'd simply transform someone into an exploding barrel and hurl them into a crowd of classmates. Or yoink them all towards you and then yeet them all off a cliff.

(Which, apparently, is fine and perfectly acceptable and not as bad as an "unforgivable" curse which might just hurt for a bit.)
