Answer: The correct answer is: [B]: " False " .

___________________________________________

A threat of violence, depending on the circumstances, may be illegal — in some situations — and/or subject to civil actions (e.g. restraining orders with specific restrictions), or be able to warrant intervention, de-escalation, investigation and/or removal of the individual(s) who [alleged] made a "threat of violence" —as well as other measures taken (e.g. "school lockdowns"); summary suspensions and recommendations for further disciplinary action (e.g. referral to mandatory supervised counseling or school transfer, in the case of an educational setting) ; transfer to a different worksite location (in an employment setting)—and perhaps with "disciplinary probation" — as well as criminal charges (in certain situations) with possible jail time and/or supervised probation; referral to anger management or other counseling; other terms.
