So, if my old self came out of nowhere with the intent to kill me from my perspective I would be getting murdered. As in another self killed me. Likewise If I were to go into the future to kill someone (me) I wouldn't really be killing me (the 19 year old me) I would be killing the future of me, which is not the same person as me, since they have experienced much more life, etc. etc...
Therefore, henceforth, wherewithal and in conclusion, I call it murder most foul to kill the future version of you.

Exactly.
But people still argue that killing your future self is suicide. Anyone from that side want to rebuttal?
