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: If he were black, they would have just shot and killed him.
Threat

Comment: The Canadians who responded to this poll obviously have limited horizons and are locked in the antiquated nation state paradigm.  Our illustrious, omniscient PM has leap frogged light years ahead of us and, together with a few of his equally narcissistic, delusional friends (such as Bono), sees himself as a leader of the nationless, borderless new world order.

He must find it so tiresome to have to deal with our naive lack of understanding of these things.
Non-threat

Comment: How many deaf female Japanese nationals are muslim terrorists?  Did Inouye airport officials find an AK-47 in her check in baggage?  Botulism toxin in a vial? Explosives in her shoes? Without a sign language interpreter, her probable inability to understand english and being deaf with probable severely limited verbal skills in ANY spoken language, it would be easy to misinterpret her lack of communication as being uncooperative.

Non-threat
