The correct answer is A as it conjoins two independent clauses by only a comma :)

A comma splice is when a comma incorrectly splits two independent clauses. In other words, there is a comma put there instead of a period. So, the answer is
A. You aren’t going to leave voluntarily, I will be forced to remove you.
