Close. Neither case is fully correct

Communisn is the doctrine of the conditions of the abolition of the Proletariat

-Engels, The Principles of Communism

The bourgeoisie doesn't create value, the proletariat does, correct, but dogmatic class warfare is anti-Marxist. Class warfare must service the overthrow of the Bourgeoisie via smashing the Bourgeois state, and replacing it with a Proletarian state that withers away as it untangles class contradictions. You cannot create Communism by killing all of the bourgeoisie, but by wresting their power as Socialism emerges from Capitalism.

Maybe I didn't explain myself correctly. For the bourgeoisie class to disappear it's not needed to kill anyone. Only take off the power they have and make them work as proletarians.
