I suspect that we'll find that Ron (and Hermione and their 
families)will become targets of the DEs anyway.  <snip>

Given that LV previously impacted the muggle world and muggles also 
were looking for Sirius, what about the idea of muggles (namely the 
Grangers) join in fighting LV?  I have no idea what this would look 
like, given that they would not fight with magic like the members of 
the Order, but if they may be a target (as the previous post 
suggests), may they actually become an ally?

Eustace_Scrubb again:
I think that something (possibly an attack by DEs that either
accidentally or purposely affects muggles as well as magic folk) will
happen that will at the least require the Minister of Magic (whoever
that turns out to be) to inform the muggle Prime Minister (for the
truly literal, we're talking about Tony Blair here, folks).  There've
been some other threads lately that have speculated that magic folk
are somehow immune to common everyday muggle methods of inflicting
injury and death (i.e., bullets).  I don't think that's true in every
circumstance, but I agree that common muggle strategems would probably
be pretty useless against a group of hostile wizards/witches.

I'm not sure I expect the Grangers to be active in the fight, but I
others have suggested they may be targeted by LV.  I don't think
individual attacks on a few muggles would be enough to involve the
muggle authorities, but who knows?
