In this task, you are given a public comment from online platforms. You are expected to classify the comment into two classes: threat and non-threat. Threat is a statement that someone will be hurt or harmed, especially if the person does not do something in particular.

Comment: This individual does need therapy, I hope he gets the help he needs as well as one of those ridiculously light sex offender sentence. This system is broken when it comes to crimes of this nature. The list was designed to be a warning for parents, and yet these people still reoffend. The punishment needs to fit the crime. We need to start surgically castrating all offenders.  We can't kill them (to my dismay) but we can permanently remove the urges.
Threat

Comment: 1.  The same restrictions we all have when it comes to what we say publicly.  They are not allowed to slander or libel anyone, the same as us, but otherwise are free to say whatever is on their mind.
2.  Why should anyone be punished for something they said, assuming it was neither slanderous or libelous?  People who want other people punished for something they said have absolutely no concept of what "free speech" means.
3.  I am neither a Republican nor a Democrat.  Contrary to the practices of either party, I believe the rule of law needs to be upheld.  Both Republicans and Democrats alike are corrupt to the core, and both do this nation far more harm than good.

Remember, the First Amendment does not exist to protect speech with which we all agree.  The First Amendment exists to protect the speech with which we disagree.  Clearly this is a concept that Democrats are unable to grasp.
Non-threat

Comment: Only an idiot would fight a guy with a knife and not shoot them!! One stab and you are dead. Why not put the knife down like the cop says. If you hold a knife against the cops you deserve to be shot!!!
