“What is particularly relevant here, and chilling from my point of view, is an observation Jeff Snyder makes in his powerful book, ‘Nation of Cowards.’ Snyder talks about the change that takes place, that must take place, in the psyche of a person who is protected by others as a matter of routine. He accepts that protection in exchange for some portion of his own sense of personal responsibility. As a result, he can often be more easily controlled by those protectors. We’re well on our way.”
