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: Why would you assume that because I feel the US flag should be respected, that somehow makes me support racism? That's a completely ignorant statement, and a big reason no reasonable person will give anything you say credibility. You are part of the problem.
Non-threat

Comment: JJ, But it does bring up a rather interesting thought or two. It seems now that if a black is shot and killed by police it brings immediate protesting and usually some level of rioting regardless of justification or lack thereof. Additionally, there is no protesting when anyone of another race is shot and killed by police.

To me, this reaction is the issue that the BLM can't overcome for it to become a popular movement. Dragging the anthem and flag into it doesn't help, I believe it to actually hurt the movement and spurs letters like above.
Non-threat

Comment: Or if you try to leave the "religion of peace." If you are gay, dead. And slandering the so called prophet will get you killed, or at least targeted for death.
