Pam wonders:
I think it will be on his mind, but will Harry even have the 
*luxury* of wrestling with this problem, now that LV & his followers 
are revealed? The action/attacks will be flying "thick & fast", I 
think, and Harry & the rest of the DA will be on the front lines (or 
very near).  It'll be difficult for him to be thinking, "Why me? 
Don't I get a say in this?" when his nearest & dearest are under 
attack.  I think H. may be feeling guilty for having involved his 
friends in the LV-staged wild-goose-chase at the Ministry, and 
exposing them to danger. And with the Order having come to his aid 
(and Sirius giving his life) to defend him, H. at least knows that 
he's not the only one risking his life.

Pam, who thinks that Harry was in his head too much in Book 6--and 
that he learned his lesson about acting rashly.
