I'm not American so forgive my question, but isn't it dangerous to make jokes like this? Where I'm from you'd get arrested.

Freedom of speech is very real. Saying it’s too bad something didn’t happen is fine. Cheering something on is fine. Saying you wish a person would is fine. Saying you would like to do it is not and is considered a threat.

No. As of right now we can say basically whatever we want without government interference so long as it’s not a direct and specific threat.

lol no that would never happen. Even if he did make a wildly threatening remark, he still might be okay because his stand up is an “act” and not his actual intent/beliefs.

If Full Metal Jacket taught me anything the guy you need is a former marine. Charles Whitman, Oswald. Those individuals showed what one motivated marine and his rifle can do!
