Yes it is a crime. Now only would I report you to the police for threats to my family, I’d kick your cowardly asss the first chance I got. You would never be able to walk around in public again without looking over your shoulder.

The crime would be incitement to violence and in states where such laws are in place, cyber-bullying.

Depending on the nature of the threats, they could be illegal.
Posting information about someone, provided it was obtained legally, is not a crime. Addresses etc are not private information.
The fact that the chat line says not to, and may even suspend you for doing so, is simply site policy, not a law.
