As cruel and heartless as that one sentence sounds, in the context of the whole letter, he has a point:

Fear is what kills, fear is what takes away people's (like Joe the Plumber) ability to see clearly. It takes away an essential aspect of their humanity and they become dangers to everyone including themselves.
