Outlaws are wanted!
The joke “What’s the difference between an outlaw and an in-law? Outlaws are wanted!” plays on the dual meanings of the word “wanted.” In the context of an “outlaw,” “wanted” typically refers to a criminal who is sought after by law enforcement, usually with a warrant issued for their arrest. On the other hand, the punchline humorously suggests that in-laws (relatives by marriage) are not “wanted” or welcomed, playing into the common comedic trope that in-laws can be bothersome or intrusive.
You can’t kill your in-laws and collect a reward?!
