TASK DEFINITION: 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.
PROBLEM: Comment: I'm sure it makes not a picayune difference to some folks, but OJ WAS acquitted of the murders wasn't he?  Should we all look for the nearest sour apple tree and break out the hangman's noose whenever a jury's decision isn't to our liking?  And at last glance, at least 66% of African Americans still agreed with, if not applaud, the verdict.

SOLUTION: Non-threat

PROBLEM: Comment: WOW!! So boys are excused because they don't get pregnant. 

However you have defended the point, "saying girl have everything to lose." If that's the case, why aren't then taught to just say NO. That's the best unprotected intercourse method.

SOLUTION: Non-threat

PROBLEM: Comment: Canada has a much smaller proportion of black folks than the US. Do you think that may be a reason for the greater civility?

SOLUTION:
Non-threat
