maybe there's a whole lot if real life drama's inb the books
there is real life drama in the books. not just the pureblood, half-blood, muggleborn thing. there's also racism just like in real life.
for example: people think differently of hagrid just because he's half giant on his mother's side.

am i right or was that stupid of me 2 bring it up?

You are right hpluver, there are other examples of discrimination/racism throughout the novels. Lupin for example will not be given a job as he is a werewolf.
Lots of real life situations are played out in Harry's world. The bridges collapsing and the giant attacks at the start of Half Blood Prince are very simillar to terrorist attacks in our world.

I also think there are lots of parallels in how the media functions in the wizarding world. The Daily Prophet regularly slanders people then when the truth comes out acts like it had nothing to do with it. Mrs Weazly believes the Witch Weekly article about Harry and Hermione in Goblet of Fire even though she could have easily ASKED them if it was true. Everyone is quick to believe something nasty, but doesn't want to believe the truth if it goes against what the majority is saying or might make them uncomfortable.

Well, basically, I think that if anyone had muggle blood in their family line, they aren't pure blood anymore, because they aren't fully magical, that one muggle person takes away their pure blood title... Is that right?

Yeah, you can be pure blood unless there is only wizards in your family. No muggles or anything.

I think being a pureblood (a snobbish,aristocratic one that is)is quite boring especially if they're your only choice for marriage.It's like your choices are sooo limited,you will have to settle for someone just because their blood is pure!?!?
