Vukmir: Ready, aim, pander

Nurses support gun control as public health issue. 
As the premier organization representing the nation’s 3.4 million registered nurses, the American Nurses Association has and will continue to be engaged in efforts to prevent and reduce gun violence. In the aftermath of the Sandy Hook tragedy, ANA issued a call to action to Congress and policymakers to take swift action to curb gun violence.
Well, not all nurses, especially one whose campaign website text begins with "Leah Vukmir is a nurse...," but who's in a US Senate primary fight for the far-right GOP base. 
MADISON, Wis. —With a holstered handgun next to her on a kitchen table, Republican U.S. Senate candidate Leah Vukmir promises in her first television ad of the campaign released Monday to stand with President Donald Trump just as she did against death threats in Wisconsin.

'just as she did against death threats in Wisconsin'
So, were those real death threats or Scott Walker death threats?
