1. I'm getting really tired of these token Secret Service investigations
Like the teacher in Alabama recently for example: a few agents investigate, they find the threats "not credible" and the criminal walks free. That is not acceptable.

3. Just to put this in context: West Allis is Sensenbrenner's district.
Lots of crazy people live there.
