I’m a student at a large public university. One of my classmates in my degree program is very obviously a dangerous asshole. He’s a misogynistic, racist, Bible-humping, gun-toting, wealthy white boy. Wears a Hawaiian shirt to Zoom classes and calls me a “climate Nazi” in front the the professor. Spending five seconds around him is enough to see he has serious brainworms. Last year, he attempted to physically assault myself and a classmate because we’re openly atheist. I alerted the university and filled a report with campus authorities. Unsurprisingly, they did nothing.

A good friend of mine alerted me today that’s he bought a semiautomatic weapon. I’m really uncomfortable with this. He has a major problem with me (to the point of posting to his alt-right friends that he’s going to “get” me). I am the president of a small student org on campus. He knows that. I’m concerned that he may show up to one of our meetings. Obviously, I can’t get the university to do anything, and the cops would probably pin a fucking medal on him.

TL; DR- There’s a pyscho alt-righter who has threatened me in the past, and I just found out he bought a semiautomatic weapon. Is there anything I can do to keep myself and the members of my club safe?

Use his social media as evidence too. Document all of his postings and vague threats. Lay low on zoom meetings and any other social media.
