Oops, I completely misinterpreted your comment. Not sure what etiquette says, but I feel silly and am removing mine.
I agree that this person saying "you guys are next" is not a threat to the degree that it should be chargeable, and that she's being made an example of.
Reading comprehension ain't for everyone.
Edit: on some reflection that might be a rude reply if you don't already know that domestic violence threats in the US are largely ignored.
Thanks for the reflection edit! I don't think I'm stupid, but you're right that I didn't read your comment correctly. Do you want me to remove my original reply?
Edit: decided to remove
I recommend doing it like I did below the horizontal lines down there 👇

To strike through, use ~~ before and after the offending text:
