That's not how it works. You have to mean it when you repent. If you go killing someone with the intent to just repent later, you are basically screwed. As you probably won't truly regret what you have done.
Maybe, but I don't think that's how the bad guys see it. Else there would be no bad guys who are religious.
It's not only that, but you must also turn from your sin and towards God. That is, make a conscious commitment not to sin.
"Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord," Acts 3:19
(2) "Jesus answered, "Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans because they suffered this way? (3) I tell you, no! But unless you repent, you too will all perish." Luke 13:2-3
