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: Are you as careless with "racist" as you are with "hater"? You don't seem to understand the meaning of words or what people are trying to express. Be kinder.
Non-threat

Comment: Catch them, then punish them.
Threat

Comment: [...shooting someone and killing them no matter what is murder.]

People with a badge and a gun doing their job, if they have to kill someone, are not committing murder. Same concept goes for folks in the military. It doesn't matter how many letters you put ahead or behind your name: it doesn't change that reality.
