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: Perhaps one reason our economy is so tepid is the burdensome taxes put on consumers. Nobody has any money because everyone is taxed to death at every turn. Open up any newspaper and the talk is of another tax, a tax on Netflix, taxing private health plans and the like. What this useless government has got is a spending problem.
Non-threat

Comment: Nice bit of fear mongering here, let's all grab our pitchforks and head out to lynch some accused sex offenders
Threat

Comment: Canada's growth industries under Trudeau are career activism and public sector unions. Shell, Total, and Petronas are only the most recent companies to pack up or cancel investment. They won't be the last thanks to the shameless incompetence of Wynne, Trudeau, Butts, Notley, and Horgan - a veritable dream team of #progressive ignorance. Petronas will end up building a pipeline to the Gulf or planned Oregon Coast LNG plants while Canada gives up a $38 billion investment.
Although it seems unlikely today given the string of legislative failures by Trump, if the US ever gets around to comprehensive tax reform - Canadian businesses will move south overnight, Canada's tax professionals are already advising as much. Canada's best and brightest won't be far behind with personal taxation bordering confiscation after Morneau gets his way. Canadians deserve what comes next and Trudeau couldn't care less, "they" can always pay for the endless promises of a smug self-involved "yes-man".
Non-threat
