Yes, ideally it would be days, not months, but realistically 2 months is not that bad. There are so many threats, reports, etc. Ideally the FBI could investigate every possible threat, but there are too many false threats. I think it makes sense, the 2 reports part. I person says it, just one of thousands of reports daily, 2 reports, there is much higher likelihood of there being something.

For an example of how many threats,

Where I live, it's not a large city, but the school district gets a threat or report agianst a school about once a week. Boy who cried wolf, they can't treat everyone as legitimate, at best they notify parents.

Of course these are symptoms of systematic government and societal problems, after all I don't know any other "First world country", we have to drill preschoolers and thier teachers active shooter drills as much as fire and earthquakes.
