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: Mitch McConnell represents the absolute worst of American partisan politics. I think Dana Milbank is justified in saying that McConnell has wrecked the Senate as a defensive bastion of the minority against the majority. Harry Reid holds some responsibility for starting the fight, but McConnell was behind the original plan to deny Obama and - that's ANY - appointments to lower courts. McConnell attacked the administration by crippling the lower courts.

McConnell should be hanged by the neck until dead, for treason against the Constitution, which he swore upon the Bible to defend with his life.
Threat

Comment: Yes all those deplorable or Bernies basement dwellers!!
It was an epic fail. I've seen some media fails but MSNBC had the worst night for news likely in the last 50 years.
That was just painful to watch. Ratings were probably just awesome and that's the one time they probably wished the ratings had been awful.

What an absolute embarrassment !!
Non-threat

Comment: You are correct, but there are also Christians in Africa that are about as bad as Muslims toward gay people. FOTF is a hate group and a threat right here in Colorado. While they don't want to "kill the gays", they do want to make life quite miserable for them. But overall, their battle against gays seems to have been a losing battle.
