Replace those 2 statements with this:
IssueType.objects.get_or_create(title=issue[0],
defaults={'order':issue[1]})
This will ensure that an IssueType gets created only if that title
doesn't already exist.

Repeat the above pattern for IssueSeverity here.

Repeat here too.

That's because your management.py can get invoked more than once. So,
you do want to defend your code against that with the "get_or_create"
method.
