threats. so, that s the concern that we can t walk away from our responsibilities as citizens or our profepgss because of threat and intimidation. the problem, of course, is law enforcement is being tied up endlessly these days with response to these threats, and they must take each one as a viable threat, lest they show up and someone is dead because they didn t take it seriously. my biggest concern, and i hope i m wrong, is that inevitably somebody is going to get hurt. the fbi and law enforcement cannot every single time get out in front of the threat and stop it before it happens. it s a numbers game. so far they ve been successful. sadly, we have to spend over $4 million to simply surround a prosecutor and his family with 24/7 security? that s the world we live in? but they can t do that for everybody at all times. i m glad you landed there. i m struck by that number, the justice department spending $14.6 million on smith s work, about a third of that
