I wikified and rewrote the article but otherwise left the content as it was. Can anyone confirm that the 1st amendment works like that? -- Pablo D. Flores ( Talk) 14:18, 21 September 2005 (UTC)
A list of notable Death Threats, and how they were perceived by the public and their legal status might be added to this article. Just an idle thought. I have a long list in mind, but since it might be considered NPOV, I shall wait DanielDemaret 18:59, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
I think there should be a disambiguation page for Terroristic Threat / Terroristic Threats. One link would point here, another to the Terrorist Threats musical album. -- George100 08:41, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
How is this an encyclopedia article? If I establish the possibility of the words "burp" and "threat" being combined as a single term, wherein someone has threatened to belch, are we then compelled to write an article entitled "Burp threat"? Seriously, friends, if you don't know what to write about, there are lists of projects and articles looking for editors to work on them. - Eric (talk) 03:37, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
Including what people have suggested above some structure for the article might:
Definition
Disambiguation - a terrorist threat against an individual is not normally regarded as terrorism, but a terrorist threat against a group, or institution often is?
I am not sure that Death Threats is Law Enforcement article. Perhaps it is more of Sociology / Criminology article?

I propose that there should be a section in the article about how death threats are dealt with in certain countries. Montgomery' 39 ( talk)
This is just a threat of

According to this article, death threats against non-public/royal persons are not a criminal offence in the U.S.A.? Is this correct? 85.4.141.205 ( talk) 14:50, 9 July 2010 (UTC)
This is correct. Any person may make any manner of death threat, publicly or privately, via any communication, to any private citizen. The only way to get protection is to be a civil servant in some capacity. The source of this information is from various police and lawyers. Some states do allow for you to defend yourself from your attacker, other states strictly forbid you from defending yourself even if a credible death threat has been received. 108.7.66.85 ( talk) 19:17, 28 March 2019 (UTC)
Correct me if I'm wrong, but the indentations and things in this article seem to be screwed up too me. Maybe it's just me being a grammar Nazi, but still I think there should be heading in bold Using the two == marks or three or however many it takes. Also, anyone have an idea for an image? I know its hard but is an image of something possible here? I'm Flightx52 and I approve this message 23:48, 24 November 2010 (UTC)
WP:LEADSENTENCE does not always call for having the title in bold and this is one of the cases were it should not be, as it distorts the sentence to do so. See also the essay on superfluous bolding explained. Mathglot ( talk) 07:08, 12 October 2015 (UTC)
