May Mailman on Bomb Threats Targeting Dem Lawmakers: We Should Expect a Full Investigation

EXCERPT:

MAILMAN:" Well, I guess it‘s one of those things that as Americans, we‘ve almost been sensitized to bomb threats against Republicans recently. President Trump was — had an attempted assassination attempt twice, and then half of his cabinet got bomb threats. And so I think this is one of the concerns about the increase of swatting incidents, is that Americans are starting to tune it out, and I think that‘s a real concern. These things need to be investigated. They need to be prosecuted. Because as you hear it from a lot of the Trump cabinet members, they‘re with their kids. Imagine you have your kids and the entire armed law enforcement show up. They‘re never going to be the same again. This is going to be life-altering for them. And so, I guess my concern about my own reaction is, at some point, we have to remember that each one of these incidents is life-altering for each one of these people. And we should expect a full investigation, a full law enforcement response to the swatters, and I think that we risk almost forgetting about it now that we live in what seems like a climate of political violence."
