COPPA just makes it so users that are under 13 of age cannot register with the site lawfully (regardless if COPPA does not apply in your country- this is a site that must apply to US law, and by signing up, you agreed to follow it for this site). Age doesn't seem to be a factor in the death threats, just clueless people that don't realise it's wrong and that since they dislike xyz it's justified.

Should be noted that I am implying some of those speaking death threats are likely under 13, but we can't just block people because we think they're under 13, it's usually backed up by any statement or evidence implying so by the user themselves.
