They don't care for the reason I was going to tell you not to call in the first place. Anyone who behaves like that online is generally not a threat to anyone. People who are actually psychotic enough to act out on all that generally don't go blasting it to all their friends in Facebook. They may tell people in person they're gonna do something, but that's about it.
I mean there are exceptions, but even then and even if the cops took it seriously, not gonna make much difference. Death threats may carry a harsher sentence than they used to, but it's far from being enough to protect someone from another person that truly wishes them harm. As a first offense it's barely a slap on the wrist and any protection orders are merely formalities that enable cops to lock the offender up if they come near the victim... Which is far too late to prevent anything.
You can't really stop a crazy person from hurting someone. Not legally anyways. All you can do is document it so that when they do, they face harsher consequences.
The best thing to do in this situation is contact the person directly and provide the evidence of the threats but in this case, the aggressor was blocked, which means the intended victim is already aware of it.
--------------------
With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way. I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today. Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear. I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear. You can't wake up, this is not a dream. You're part of a machine, you are not a human being With your face all made up, living on a screen. Low on self esteem, so you run on gasoline

I like how in this thread everyone told op not to report it, but op did the responsible adult thing and reported it, and then the cops were pretty much like "fuck off." 
Such a strange thread. If someone is seriously threatening to kill people, I hope you'd all be responsible enough to call the cops. Don't be a pussy.

Yeah. I lived with Hells Angel offspring. He said at no time call police. I say. If some dumb ducked numbskull is threatening the life’s of others, throw his ass in jail. Who the fuck cares? If any one did, they talk his ass down and not have him threatening any one. Some solitude and peace that person needs to fix his head before he hurts others.
To be making threats about others physical condition is wrong. Sure, the crack dealer on the corners may sell you plenty of rocks to ache the mind, but that hangover like a bad clothing outfit you wear for a day. A scar across your face because one got violent on premeditated dumbassity dtsys with you for life!
Either call the cops or have one beat his ass to a bloody pulp so he can’t move for the next weeks. About the same thing b

No. With the info provided he had very little reason to get the police involved. I told him to call the police if he felt he needed to.
It is IME best to avoid any interaction with LEO. However if someones life is in danger then yes call the police, but people talk a lot of shit in texts/online outlets. if the police were called over my online/texts every time i had a bender in the past 10 years i would not be posting here. Im glad those who i associated with decided to ignore me rather than report me. FWIW i still ended up in a Psych ward. I still say OP should stay the fuck away from someone in that mental state. I was there. stay away unless you are a close/lifelong friend. I lashed out and ended longtime relationships and friendships just because i had access to the a phone and internet at the time.

I see that you did, so my initial advice is void. Which is, the police will never help in a threatening situation. Until an assault has taken place, people are free to make all the angry, potentially violent comments they want. And in the case of an assault, again most of the time, the police could not care less.
My advice to you now is to pay attention to what you take away from this. Could something else have been done? Could you have talked to parties involved? I know there is more to this than I see and there is no reason for me to have every detail here. People tend to think of police as the principal in a school. Someone does wrong and you tell the principal and someone gets in trouble. That is not how it works 99% or the time. In these situations, either nothing happens or things are made much worse. You may have put other people at risk by introducing a party that has no limitations on how the proceed. It is entirely up to them to decide how they handle it. Likely, they won't proceed in anyway but things can get out of control easily and quickly. I truly hope this finds a happy and peaceful resolution and I would like to think your actions stem from concern for the well being of others, but don't be so quick to run and tell an entity that could have severe repercussions for all parties in unforeseen ways.

Op is the last person who should ever call the cops on somebody saying threatening declarations over the internet.

If you were in a more harmonious country they might have taken you more seriously OP, probably not though, but as it is the US is a country at war with itself. Shootings and beatings are an hourly occurrence over there, people saying bad words on the internet aren't a red flag unless you threaten society as a group.
I bet if he'd promised to shoot up a school or government building on Facebook it would have got far more interesting for him.
