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.
Input: Comment: Burglars have gotten more people killed that just about any other crime. Countless innocent children and spouses have been shot by family members fearful of those entering occupied dwellings. I stand by my comment: I hate burglars with a purple passion: they are in the same category as rapists as they strip people of their sense of security: they violate us in many ways. The only reason I don't support the death penalty for them is that I'm opposed to this due to the imperfection of the system. That being said, If someone shoots and kills a burglar in the act, I congratulate them and celebrate the grand occasion.
