Re: Maybe threatened...
Ignore it. It doesn't really seem like a real threat to me.
In the 2 months that I have been driving my H2, I have been flipped off, dissed, cut off, glared at, and laughed at. I have had the size of certain parts of my body questioned, and at worst, my death requested.
I have decided they're not worth it. I did, in a fit of stupidity, relieve the "death requester" of the air in one of her tires, which could have gotten me in trouble.
I prefer to think about the high-fives I have gotten, the fact that H2s appeal to people of all races and both sexes. I've gotten thumbs up from other 4X4ers as well as waves from most other H2 drivers.
Forget about him... He ain't worth it...
Sign me,
Still Afloat in Dallas

Re: Maybe threatened...
I feel for you, but I would ignore it. It doesn't sound like a threat to me, just a half-assed rant full of assumptions and stereotypes.
It's stupid that people would feel that strongly about one hunk of metal but not another, but that's people for you ... sigh

Re: Maybe threatened...
I hope you're a christian, waiting for the rapture, and that it comes soon
and takes you off this precious earth that you view as your personal toy.
That's not a threat, it is more of a statement. Seems to be aimed at your possible conservative views, which contradicts their own liberal views.

Re: Maybe threatened...
seems like a harmless comment made by some dolt. I'd ignore it and not give the SOB the satisfaction of knowing that they got to you. I concur with many of the above comments fully!

I disagree to a certain level. It's all a matter of context.
Wishing someone is in a position to receive harm (although it's questonable here) can be construed as threatening depending on the entire context.
In her case, the context sort of depends on if she is a Christian herself. If she believes she will be taken off the earth along with REE then that's one thing. It's entirely other if she doesn't believe so and is mocking it. Since then it's simply about removing him from further "hurting the precious earth"
It's an odd thing to say regardless, I think.

Sorry ree. I would report it to Verizon and see if they take their policy seriously. Then pay for a ticket for Drtyfn to go knock on their door. "I understand there's a person living here that has something to say about my friend and the car he/she drives. Could I have a word with them please?"

Re: Maybe threatened...

Actually I'm glad I live and drive my Hummer in Belgium (Europe). Have been drivin' it for a year now, and I have not received one negative comment, gesture, remark, ... yet. Everyone seems to love it (It's an extremely rare vehicle over here).

Re: Maybe threatened...
I would report it to make a statement back that you just can't abuse the use of the internet and threaten anyone. Even if it is questionable. What might be next? Stop it now at this level.

Re: Maybe threatened...
You really would have to read deep into that for it to be a threat wouldn't you?
That is not a threat IMO, just someone ranting and raving. He prob forgot he even sent you the email by now....
"**** you and your piece of **** hummer, I outta shove it up your ass"
"I'm gonna find you and stick your hummer up your ass"
"your dead **** head"
those are threats.......You are reading into it waaaay to much.
