Discussing killing people is a crime. You can say something along of the lines of "person X needs to die," perfectly legal to do so.
But you cannot say I'm going to kill, or I wish I could kill, I want to Kill, etc a person, that is a terroristic threat- the Pres and VP are protected by even stricter laws against this type of language
No, any words that effect an outcome are a threat. "I want to X" is an equation of doing.
As I said, it's OK to say X needs to die, or the world would be better if X dies, but you cannot involve yourself in an activity, "I want to kill you" is a terroristic threat, and you will get arrested for such a statement.
If you were to walk up to me and say "I want to slap you" then I'd disregard you.
If you were to walk up to me and say "I'm going to slap you" then you will have committed common law assault by creating apprehension of an imminent harmful or offensive contact with me.
people like u, need to learn 1st AMENDMENT! of the Constitution it's called "CONGRESS shall make no law..." It doesn't give you the right to make threats, eith open or veiled.
Please, now that you have been corrected on your faulty knowledge of the American jurisprudence used here, stop commenting on it, and stick to kibbutzing on your country's affairs.

There's a difference between "I want to kill you" & "I'm going to kill you"...

No, it's not.

... And if you do slap me, then that is battery.
You're wrong. Intent is derived from words and deeds. "I want to slap you" is intent.
Stop arguing w me.
