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: ONE SIMPLE, LOADED PISTOL would have solved this problem for this man and the rest of us that have to live with these dirtbags on our streets,

SOLUTION: Threat

PROBLEM: Comment: Let's not even begin to talk about " the family wealth " comment or the reporter who broke the lumber loop hole used to minimize the tax burden on Trudeau family cottage.
Yes 1st Kathleen and her $15 dollar minimum wage and now a desperate Liberal party attacking the back bone of this county.
I have said it a million times, the government won the last election and the tax payers lost.
I have zero regard for the establishment and those who are there useful idiots.
SHAME!!!!

SOLUTION: Non-threat

PROBLEM: Comment: "We even cover a great many Americans leeching off of our system"
LOL. Oh yeah, American leeches abound, don't they? Just this week my neighbor and I contemplated how we can scam the Canadian health system. We figured if we "sign up" today and make an appointment to see a GP we might be seen in May, 2018 - can't beat that!

SOLUTION:
Non-threat
