instruction:
In this task, you are given a public comment from online platforms. You are expected to classify the comment into two classes: identity-attack and non-identity-attack. Identity attack refers to anything rude or disrespectful about someone's identity, including appearance, race, gender, and sexual orientation.
question:
Comment: (cont'd.)
There are humane ways to control or redirect a cat's behavior in this regard.  There is a reason most veterinarians will not perform this procedure except in cases of last resort, not first, and that some veterinary schools do not teach the procedure.  The very fact that cats continue to try to scratch following this procedure should indicate to an intelligent person that they prefer to have their claws.  And no one is asking an owner to choose between altering and declawing.  One is necessary, the other is not.

I hope the reason the Post printed this letter is to show how ignorant some people actually are.  I implore this letter-writer not to continue declawing just because that's what she's always done.  The cats God has allowed to be in your care deserve better.
answer:
Non-identity-attack


question:
Comment: Totally agree...he can't accept any blame whatsoever....let's just blame the black guy....as of today:  his OWN REPUBLICAN leaks from the White House are Obama's fault (are you kidding me?) and the botched raid in which a SEAL died last month is the military's (and Obama's, by the way !!!) fault!!
answer:
Identity-attack


question:
Comment: Every morning I wake up and wish that I had a magic wand that would get rid of both Wynne and Trudeau.
They represent the greatest threat to the economic welfare of Canadians and I wish the media would focus on those two and just wait and see what Trump will do.  He may surprise you in a very positive way...but assuredly he cannot be any worse than Wynne and Trudeau and their trusted advisers Telford and Butts.
With that ship of fools in command we are headed straight for the iceberg.
answer:

Non-identity-attack
