Donald J. Trump’s fans and followers behaved badly when protestors showed up at the president-elect’s rallies.
They were called down by the media, as they should have been.
Now, though, we’re hearing about death threats — for crying out loud! — against Republican electors who are going to cast their electoral votes for the man who won enough of them to be elected president.
Death threats! Are you kidding me?
Is this what we’ve become, a nation of bullies and boors?
The notion that someone would threaten bodily harm — or death — to another fellow citizen who is doing his or her duty is repugnant on its face.
I get that emotions still are smoldering after a contentious and often insult-driven presidential election campaign.
These reports, though, of death threats against electors suggest a level of insanity that needs to be curbed.

The media need to come down hard on those making such threats. While we’re at it, the U.S. Justice Department needs to unleash its investigative hounds to track down those who are making them — in violation of federal law.
