Again, I say: Words have meaning. Threat, for example:

“a declaration of an intention or determination to inflict punishment, injury, etc., in retaliation for, or conditionally upon, some action or course; menace: ”

A declaration of an intention or determination to inflict punishment. That means you intend to do something, or are determined to do something, that will punish the person. So, for example:

“I think it’s important to remember that threats are more than someone saying I’m going to come to your house and I’m going to hurt you,” she said. “Insulting someone’s appearance, insulting someone’s religion, or their race, you know, all of that to me constitutes a threat and I think we can make changes to how we control that dialogue on the internet without threatening our First Amendment rights.”

Those aren’t threats. But then, she is a child molester.
