I'm not saying it's a legitimate threat, though I don't know any of you well enough to be 100% sure.  
I'm saying it's totally inappropriate and distracting.
You're changing an intellectual conversation into a conversation that's more about pugilism and machismo.
We all agree that they suck. 
It's much more productive and interesting to follow that with "here's why they suck" and "how can we improve it."
Trying to one up each other with "just vote em out" and "voting doesn't work let's kill them all" is neither productive nor interesting.

The other thing that bothers me about some of you saying "Kill all politicians" is you don't include Trump in that group.  Which makes you naive, not macho.  Trump is a politician and it's infantile to say otherwise.
