What is satirical about a sticker that says "Kill the President?"

The sticker says "I'm Gonna Kill the President". You left out the first two words to make it sound like an order, which it is not.

Either way, they are treading very thin ground. But I'll always defend the 1st Amendment. Putting on a farcical play about someone who wants to kill the president is not treason, just like owning a gun that could potentially kill the president isn't (and shouldn't be) illegal.

Guns don't kill people. Words don't kill people.

You miss the point entirely. AGAIN...A sticker that says '"I'M GONNA KILL THE PRESIDENT" is not satirical.
