e.g. killed ISIS member publicly, humiliated them and posted online

ISIS then angry and most likely would target me, can I still visit other countries as per normal? Will there be any laws to restrict me?

Note: The example is baseless.

    Change the example to: Offend some members of a religion to the point they attacked our offices (which is what happened to Charlie Hebdo). I don't think their employees were restricted in their travels anymore than other French citizens were, though if you murder someone and you travel to another country the authorities there may have something to say about that. –  Mar 16 '15 at 13:48

    I don't see how this is a political question, rather it's just a technical one about customs. Also the answer would be different for most of the <country of origin, destination country> pairs, which includes dozens of thousands of possibilities. – Bregalad Mar 18 '15 at 13:03
  • @Bregalad , Q&A for people interested in governments, policies, and political processes This is related to policies. As for possibilities, since this isn't targeted Q&A, I believe some answers to questions are incorrect vary by country too. – XPMai Mar 25 '15 at 18:07
  • @watcher, attacking offices are illegal and I can prosecute them afterwards. Casualties involved are usually the ones who are involved too except few accidents. Even if some people are killed by them, they're targets. However, terrorists are different. They're people who manslaughter innocents, uncontrollable and it's less likely to make them face the laws afterwards, either they escape or commit suicide before arrest causing the innocents to die with no justice. The no. of victims of terrorism will be much bigger than originary riots since they're heavily armed with modern weapons (i.e. guns) – XPMai Mar 25 '15 at 18:16
  • In addiction, e.g. I offended Christian religion. I should still be able to enter non-Christian countries as per normal unless I'm convicted for that case. – XPMai Mar 25 '15 at 18:17
  • @XPMai I was attempting to draw a similarity between killing ISIS member publicly and drawing a cartoon that offends others. Everyone knew Charlie Hebdo was a potential target for terrorists (mostly because they had already been attacked once before in 2011), yet, as far as I know, there were zero travel restrictions placed on them or their employees. I guess now I'm a little confused as to what your question is after your comment. –  Mar 25 '15 at 18:31
  • @watcher, not everyone knows about Charlie Hebdo. I was confused what he did and offended who, but I've understood after your comment. :D – XPMai Mar 27 '15 at 13:07

Legally speaking, I have never heard of any laws specifically targeting that but you certainly could be banned on an ad hoc basis. Many countries have rules in place to ban certain individuals on ‘public safety’ grounds that could presumably be invoked in this case.

  • Also, if they think you might be seeking asylum, they may not let you in unless you go through that process. I think - I'm not sure about that. – Bobson Mar 18 '15 at 14:16

    @Bobson The way this works, at least in Europe, is that people who are likely to seek asylum typically need a visa and do not get it, to make sure they don't go as far as being able to lodge an application. But if your citizenship allows you to enter without a visa (which I took for granted for this question) and you make it to the border, you can lodge an application then and there. If you do need a visa, that's another choking point, there are usually multiple legally valid reasons to refuse a visa. – Relaxed Mar 18 '15 at 14:36
  • but the "ad hoc" can't be instant, legislations need time right? :D So by the time the government make that legislation, I already legally become a resident. – XPMai Mar 25 '15 at 18:18
