No. If you made a credible attempt to cause an assault, you would be at risk of criminal charges.
You can say anything you want. But if you start inciting action, especially violence, you risk culpability.

So what's credible about Shkreli's post? The monetary offer? The target?

Ahem..

The courts decided this time there was. It's a bit weak in my opinion, but I can see the point. It would have been reasonable to fear that someone would have tried to collect on his offer. He was known for being wealthy, unscrupulous, and a drama whore.

Ok, fine. Courts decided it. I toats don't support the decision.
