> This is Charles from San Diego IMC. Yesterday our IMC received an e-mail
making a threat against a local Arab-American attorney, Randall Hamud.
(Since we didn't decide to publish it more widely, I'm not including it. The
language was decidedly threatening.) Our regular meeting was yesterday, and
we decided to contact him. (For more background on him, see this story on
SDIMC.)

> I contacted Mr. Hamud this morning, and he took the threat very seriously.
I forwarded him the email.
>
> He called me back, and said that he had contacted the FBI, and that a
Special Agent Don Allen (sp?) - or an agent assigned by him - might be
contacting us. They are in a Hate Crimes Task Force.
>
> Personally, I would rather not deal with law enforcement, but I'm pretty
sure that SDIMC would want to support Randall Hamud in dealing with this as
he sees best.

> Any IMC's out there have experiences in this regard?
