You shouldn’t,” “Your security detail is far too thin and incompetent to protect you. This world is unpredictable these days….anything can happen to anyone.” Travis Ford of Nebraska in his threats to a local election official. Independent Security Advisors Defending Democracy program Bottomline: Elected and other public officials are afraid of violence, so fearful that many have confessed to not voting for a piece of legislation over these fears. Many of these elected officials are part of the problem, using violent rhetoric to demonize a political opponent.
