This is what I said:
>I would consider going to the cops about this. Do you know who the person is? That's just not a normal thing for a person to say to another. It's just plain disturbing.What Dr Bob objected to was my saying it was 'not a normal thing for a person to say to another'.
So how would I rephrase that and still convey that I feel the situation may be more serious than the person thinks? If I were to say how I would feel if I got an email like that, I'd say, 'I would feel threatened by this.' But that's not civil either. So how would you say it?
Once again, I'm no longer talking about a particular person, but trying to find the correct way to respond to a hypothetical situation.
