I don't know if he realizes threatening emails can easily be traced back to their source. In these times the authorities take such threats very seriously.

[Arlo]
I am sorry to hear this. If you are being harassed, you should act on that. There is no reason for such behavior.

[Dan]
Yes, certainly. And in our work-a-day world this is the norm. No disagreement from me. But Buddhism isn't interested in activity. It espouses non-activity. 

[Arlo]
I don't pretend to be an expert on Buddhism, but I think this sounds right. I think I was going off part of the eightfold path (right view, right action) as to the mapping of 'belief' to 'activity' (as opposed to being divorced from activity, as is a general problem of S/O thinking).

[Dan]
Well, hopefully you saw I was having a bit of fun, that's all. 

[Arlo]
I did. :-) I hope you saw I was having a bit of fun back.
