A Wayne State University student clad in a Trump-Pence 2020 T-shirt is suspended after pulling out a knife and threatening a pro-immigration group on campus, Metro Times' Lee DeVito reports.

He approached a table on Tuesday where members of the activist group BAMN (By Any Means Necessary) were passing out flyers about immigrant rights. A video provided shows the man open his jacket to show off a Trump shirt and pulled out a switchblade. He then says: "I think we should deport or kill all illegals that don't belong in our country."

Things escalated. One student yelled back, "So you're a Nazi? Get the fuck out of here." Another student yelled, "You want to kill somebody? Kill yourself."

WSU President M. Roy Wilson issued a statement that said, in part:

we became aware of an incident in which a Wayne State student and a number of individuals staffing a table in State Hall engaged in a dispute. During a tense exchange, the student made some provocative remarks related to immigration and brandished a knife. This incident was shared via Facebook and other forms of social media. The individual in question has since been detained and is suspended from the university pending a full investigation.
