    Yeah the first is just expressing a sentiment but you’ve taken no action to make it happen. Once you are offering people money that’s an actionable plan and you could be arrested for that.

  That’s illegal no matter who the target is.

  It is not illegal to say “i want to kill the president,” but is is illegal to pay someone to actually do it.

    Threats against the president are also illegal.

      Yes. A threat. Simply saying “I wanna kill the president” doesn’t automatically constitute a threat.

    They’re going to be super embarrassed when they show this misuse of homophones at the trial for terroristic threats.

  This is sort of how putting hits on people actually works or has in certain scenes.

  You don’t sign a contract or put out a bounty (unless you’re the state, that’s illegal), you just let everyone know that you’d hypothetically pay whomever killed the person you want offing.

  As a bonus you can then say you were just joking (ofc that risks you being offed too)
