A South Carolina man was arrested for threatening students who have been protesting at Clemonson University over diversity issues.

Jamie Reece Moore, 21, also a student at the university, was arrested for posting the threats on the social media platform Yik Yak, WBTW reports. He was charged with unlawful use of a telephone.

According to the station, Moore posted the following comments, among others.

“What time is the lynch mob tomorrow? I got a couple hundred feet of rope”
“Let’s do to the Clemson protesters what Ohio did to the Kent State student protesters 40 years ago”
“Drive by at Sikes?”
Slave auction tomorrow morning at 8am @ Sikes Hall. Lots of good protest workers. Get them while they’re mad!!!”
“So have they started lynching protesters yet?”

Moore is currently free on bond.

Students have been protesting what the Associated Press called a “quiet racial schism” on campus, with only 6 percent of the student body being black in a state where a third of the population is African American.

Students have been holding sit-ins and protests on the campus — the core of which was built by slaves. The tensions boiled over when rotting bananas were hung from an African-American history banner.

“We go through classes, we see each other on a daily basis, we exchange smiles thinking we are all treating one another as equals. But to see the post on Yik Yak talking about lynchings — to me it is just ignorant,” African-American student Brendan Standifer said.
