If I saw Voldemort, I'd either take up the post as spy for the Order of the Pheonix or I would punch him (or a roundhouse kick... that works too) for killing Snape and Mad-Eye (I had a dream like that once... Voldemort was in my kitchen...) and I'd be after the other Death Eaters for killing Sirius, Tonks, Lupin, and Fred.

And my weirdest dream was that my friend and I were walking around Hogsmeade and we went into the Three Broomsticks and was flirting with everyone and we met up with these random guys and then we saw some of our teachers and planned a date as the same time as the other one so we went around avoiding them and giggling madly...

It was a rathe weird dream...but not as weird as my friend's. She has a huge crush on this one guy and was working on an A.P. Lit paper when she fell asleep then dreamt that she woke up and they guy was in her kitchen sitting on a cannon pointed at her face, completely naked, shouting at her to get the paper done...
I'd ask him how Osama bin Laden's doing, b/c I would assume he's been to the suite of rooms in hell that are reserved for Osama bin Laden and 'people' like him. A category that he-who-must-not-be-named falls into right along with Hitler, Stalin and Mussolini. And Catherine De Medici. For starters.They could have a whole burning Hilton Hotel down there and watch each other make the others miserable.

You're right that he doesn't kill as many people, but that's because he is defeated before he can rule officially in his own name.

Lucky you. I remember my nightmares with a clarity that bothers me like crazy. Nightmares are practically the only thing I have, if you don't count the dream where I met J.D Salinger (he was alive in my dream, not dead like he is now).
I'd rather dream about the Harry Potter series which, oddly, I've never done, than always be dreaming about the stuff I do.

As well as the Death Eaters/other magical creatures that died because of him, whether directly or not?

Even though he might not have killed as many people, whether directly or not, he is as bad as Hitler, if not worse. And Hitler, aside from being a total maniac, did help Germany get out its depression stage after WWI, so if only he wasn't so evil and vile...that's kinda like Heart of Darkness, now that I think about it...sorry off on another tangent!
It doesn't seem possible that the numbers could be close. Voldemort could not have been responsible for 6-12+ million deaths (not counting the number of people who died fighting WWII); Britain's population is only about 60 million and the wizarding population seems relatively small (there are inconsistencies with numbers in the books, but HP wiki estimates that the number is between 12,000 and 15,000). Voldemort doesn't seem to have been able to extend too much control abroad. The whole scale of the wizarding war is very small compared to the scale of WWII, and while there are muggle killings, there isn't a systematic slaughter of muggles that takes place.But I completely agree that the numbers are irrelevant and that Voldemort is in no way "better" than Hitler. Voldemort would have killed more people if given the opportunity, I’m sure.

How much of the world's population is that? Isn't the world like 4.3 billion people? (or is that how long it's been around? I get those number mixed up...) Give me a second to calculate...
So that's .00035%? Please someone check my math! Math is not my strong suit!

Aegine wrote: "Pandy wrote: "It doesn't seem possible that the numbers could be close. Voldemort could not have been responsible for 6-12+ million deaths (not counting the number of people who died fighting WWII)..."The 12,00-15,000 is just the number for the wizards in Britain. (The world's population is around 6.97 billion, I think. The earth's age is about 4.5 billion years old. I get confused with the numbers too.)
Here's the paragraph about the population from HP wiki
"There is some confusion regarding the population of the wizarding world. The year Harry Potter entered Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, there were forty students that started school. This seems to indicate a very low birth rate, or a very low number of witches and wizards in Great Britain and Ireland, or a combination of both. Also, J. K. Rowling has stated that she imagines the wizarding population of the U.K. to be around 3,000. This estimate, although seemingly small, is understandable; a larger population would be far harder to hide from Muggles. However, she also stated that the number of students attending Hogwarts was around 1,000, which seems inconsistent with the 3,000 population estimate. Harry once observed in one Quidditch match that three-quarters of the stadium was supporting Gryffindor, while the Slytherin supporters numbered around 200. There are a large number of government departments, and Harry Potter observes hundreds of witches and wizards in the Ministry of Magic's Atrium alone. This would appear to be too large for such a small population. The Quidditch World Cup stadium could hold 100,000 and was built by a Ministry task force of five hundred. It seems very unlikely that a sixth of the entire country worked for a full year on one single project, though it is possible that the Ministry could have hired out from other countries. If one were to extrapolate from Rowling's statement that 1,000 students were at Hogwarts at a given time, however, a more sensible number seems to suggest itself: Given that 1,000 students spread over 7 years would make a class size each year of about 143 students, that nearly every young wizard and witch in Britain appears to attend Hogwarts, and that wizards and witches seem to live around 100 years if they don't die by unnatural causes, 1,000 Hogwarts students would put the total wizarding population in Britain at 12,000 to 15,000 -- a number that would support almost all details known about the Wizarding World.
That would mean the percentage of witches/wizards in Britain is bewteen 0.00019% and 0.00024%. It's a small number, but the above paragraph seems to make sense, though I think JKR did say that there are more than 40 students in Harry's year. And she has said that math isn't her strong suit either. (Nor is it mine!)

Because I am a Ravenclaw and I know that Harry killed him once and for all, but still just for chopping the impersonators nose off I would walk up to him, stomp on his foot, point my wand shout Riddiculus (just to ensure it is not a boggart for I do fear Voldemort) Ask him why he does not have a cool scar as well, and then shout rictusempra (for I think that it would be funny to see him doubled over in pure laughter), then say, "That was for Lily and James," thump him on his head, then be on my merry way.

good point but I feel in today's society he would easily be overthrown as hitler would not. I don't think Voldemort is/was the best at public speaking which was really the main strenght of Hitler.

Because he deserves embarrasment.

I would put on Harry Potter glasses and draw a scar on my forehead, then take a picture.
