Would Harry make a Horcrux for himself?

 > Harry has a big fight coming up with Voldemort. If, by chance, he 
kills a Death Eater early in Book 7, he may be offered the opportunity 
to make a Horcrux for himself. 

Do you think he would avoid that or make one as an insurance policy 
against getting AKed by LV?

  I do not believe in these circumstances that he would be able to create a horcrux. From my understanding, murder must be committed to create a horcrux. Most people agree murder to be a cold blooded malicious ending of another's life. However, death on the battlefield is much different from striking down someone in cold blood. This also ties into my own earlier theory on the ritual involved in making a horcrux. LV could not use James death to create a horcrux because he killed James in battle, however, Lily's death was cold blooded murder because she did not defend herself, and she had not even raised a wand to LV. Perhaps in killing Lily, LV accidentally triggered the horcrux creating spell. No, I think for Harry to have a horcrux, he would have to kill in cold blood, and I do not think that any DE would go quietly against HP.
