The templars, the Circle... they force mages into a corner, and are then shocked when the mage makes a last, desperate attempt to survive. But for every blood mage, there are innocents. And people like the Chantry, like the uninformed masses, would see them locked away, condemned, for things they would never do, given the freedom they deserve.
Just because a dog may bite, they see fit to sew shut its jaws! One criminal in a group of fifty good men doesn't automatically mean the entire lot is made of backstabbers and thieves. You cannot hold the actions of the few against the many...
