I can't say I am going to kill the president. But can the president specify me a civ saying he is going to kill me? And it be legal?

    In reality, it doesn’t matter how legal something is.

    The question is who decides if it should be enforced and when.

    If you say it, it WILL be enforced. If the President said it, probably not so much.

      When you fail an open book test…

      Honestly, trump voters can’t be called [A]mericans anymore, they got [F-], now the entire class is getting punished because most present on the exam day failed, and some didn’t even show to to take the test.

    Depends on which president.

    In Russia, China, USA, its de facto legal.

    And it also depends on which president you made the threat against, and where you are. I’m pretty sure as a US Citizen in the US, I can safely say this:

    I’m gonna kill the President of PRC. I have always wanted to, I have a personal grudge his political party, and him being in that party make him my enemy. I really wanna shoot him in the face, and if I had a gun, and he was right in front of me, I’d shoot him until he dead, then reload and keep shooting.

    There. I said it. Lol. FBI wouldn’t bat an eye since the US and PRC are adversaries right now. I’m gonna wait and see if PRC is gonna send their agents for me.

    (I mean unless they settle on some trade deal that ends with deporting US Citizen anti-PRC dissidents? 👀)

    Since laws don’t exist anymore (of course depending on which side you are) and the president can do whatever he wants with no consequences he can totally have anyone killed.

    Are you talking about 50 years ago or present date? Pretty sure Trump would get a slap on the hand at most. Besides, he can just point his sycophants in your direction and keep his plausible deniability.

    For what it’s worth: you absolutely can say those things. There may be consequences, probably bad ones, but you can definitely say those things.

    I think you can say you want to kill the president, in America at least.

    Republicans can say “trans must go” and it’s not seen as a death threat, so I’d say yeah he can.

    SCOTUS says POTUS has immunity for official acts. If he issues an EO to “kill you”. It’s no problem.
