/Molly just pretty much admitted that the car belonged to Arthur. The same man that apparently wrote law forbidding enchanting muggle objects. In presence of whole faculty and probably majority of students/
Good catch!
/So it would be entirely Ron’s fault, if Arthur loses his job? Arthur is not at fault for breaking law/
Of course it's Ron's fault, just like it's Ron's fault that Norbert(a) bit him, Draco's fault that Buckbeak attacked him, Neville's fault that Sirius got inside Gryffindor Tower, etc. etc. It's not like the adults ever need to take responsibility for anything.
/I have odd feeling that Justin’s parents didn’t send him to Hogwarts out of their free will/
A choice between Eton, a well-known and prestigious school, and Hogwarts, a school that they can't tell anybody else about and that they are unable to see or visit. I know that people will speculate that Justin/the Ministry forced Justin's parents to send him to Hogwarts, but a kinder explanation is that they love their son that much that they're willing to send him to an unknown school if that means he'll be happy and learn how to control his magic.
/The whole Ron’s-wand-drama instead of making Weasleys look poor, makes them and Hogwarts’ staff look like bunch of irresponsible dicks/
And JKR shot herself in the foot by coming up with the fund that Dumbledore suggested to Tom in HBP. I guess that one could handwave it as the fund only applying to orphans or the fund eventually being discontinued before Harry's time or the Weasleys being too proud and pigheaded to apply for the fund, but the fact that none of the teachers ever offer to fix Ron's wand or give him a new one still counts as a strike against them.
/I would complain about Lockhart bringing to class dangerous magical creatures that he has no way of controlling/containing, but then I realise that Hagrid and Lupin exist in this verse/
Lupin at least knew how to control the creatures that he brought to class. The dangerous magical animal that he refused to take steps to control was himself.
