In California it is illegal to make criminal threats to commit any crime resulting in death or great bodily injury. It is also illegal to make terrorist threats. Threats can be spoken or implied and can be against officials, or specific people. Punishments will vary depending on the severity of the threats.

Due to heightened security in the past years, people who even jokingly make threats may be investigated.
