    It really depends.

    Merely saying that the administration needs to be guillotined isn’t illegal because its protected by the Constitution’s First Amendment.

    However, such rhetoric loses such protection when it starts to manifest a particularity. So, saying “Guillotine Republicans because they fucking deserve it” is protected. Statements like “Guillotine Republican X at his address Y at Z p.m.” are not.
