Immediately after Esav said silently "in his heart" that he would kill Yaakov, the Torah states, "When Rivka was told the words of her older son Esav, she summoned Yaakov, her younger son, and said to him,"Behold, your brother Esav is consoling himself regarding you to kill you.

 Forethoughts And AfterThoughts Archives - Devarim
Besides the degree of quantity and quality of Torah observance, success can be viewed in terms of the extent a person is responsible for his/her level of internalization of an awareness of G-d's existence and His role in the events of a person's life, assuming that this can translate into behavior.
As the Torah is a reflection of a person's inner being, responses from a master of Torah knowledge will reflect the master's enhanced awareness of his inner self.
Perhaps this is why the Torah emphasizes the value in listening to the commandments, for by delving into their intent, meaning, and interrelation we will be better equipped to deal with attempts to misapply virtues.

However to add insult to injury, Yeshiva Torah Temima has not only totally ignored the letter and refused to take action against this vile being, but rather they have put out a threat to retaliate against the originator of this letter.
More so, Yeshiva Torah Temima has said that since it has no legal recourse to the letter writer because he has not violated any law, they will nevertheless 'take matters into their own hands' with regard to their recourse against him.
