In reply to a normal sensible question to the group.
Abuse like this constitutes verbal abuse and as a consequence is a
criminal offence.
Before reporting him to the police would the moderator ban him.

In common with most newsgroups, there /is/ no moderator. You may think
it's regrettable, but that sort of verbal abuse has always been common
on newsgroups. You could report him to the police yourself, of course,
but don't you think that you are overreacting? I very much doubt that
the police would take any action.
