Well yes, but only if the person attempts murder. If no attempt is made, there's no crime for which the other is serving as an accomplice.
100% agree with this and the other two paragraphs. That's why I'm asking these questions and trying to have a more in depth conversation than the rest of the people in this thread. I don't know where the line is, but I'm not comfortable completely washing our hands of this until violence actually erupts. The threat alone should be enough for us to discuss the problem. Just as the threat of violence from Trump's words is enough for us to discuss the problem, and we need not wait for his followers to break a law to condemn his rhetoric. Same kind of deal here. I don't have to wait until someone tries to kill Taylor Swift to say that there might be a problem with streaming her location in real time.
Actually hadn't thought of this. On second thought, I do think there's a more constructive way to do this, and I wish high profile figures would do more to participate constructively in the political process so we don't keep having to fight this based on personality type and affiliation.
I hear that loud and clear, and can't say I disagree with any of it. Thanks for engaging respectfully and helping me understand a different perspective.
