Just got a threatening phone call
My phone rings and wakes me up , I say "hello" and then I hear this guy screaming "I kill you you F-ing N-word, you F-ing N-word, I kill you F-ing N-word" and then he hangs up. Of course I have no idea who it was, my caller id says private caller, now I can't get back to sleep.

1. Oh god I am so sorry.
I don't know what fills people with that much hatred to do such a thing. Just make sure you're safe.

9. I'm okay

I live on a farm, have 2 dogs and several guns. Getting a call like that in the middle of the night does shake you up. I'm surprised he hasn't called back and threatened me again.

They might have just picked a random number and it just happened to be you.

11. Report it
All calls are logged (for LEO anyway) these days no matter what the Caller ID says.

Start the paper trail.
