Michigan college student loses appeal to drop 'terrorist threat' charge | Washington Examiner

A college student in Michigan who posted a picture of a semi-automatic rifle lost an appeal to drop the "terrorist threat" charge he faces.
Lucas Gerhard, a student at Lake Superior State University in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, can be charged for posting a Snapchat story of an AR-15 accompanied by an offensive caption, the Michigan Court of Appeals ruled June 24.
"Takin this bad boy up, this outta make the snowflakes melt, aye? And I mean snowflakes as in snow [winky face emoji]," Gerhard wrote in the Aug. 22, 2019 post, referencing his plans to bring his gun with him to college.
After Gerhard made the post, two Lake Superior State students alerted the public safety department. The university allows students to bring firearms to school so long as they are registered with the campus police. When Gerhard went to register his gun the next morning, he was questioned by security.
