The guy didn't even have any actual guns (his assault rifle was back home in Vermont) - just a tactical vest, empty boxes for ammunition and magazines, a tactical knife, a folding knife, firearm earmuffs, six propane canisters, fireworks, lighter fluid, a battery with wires a lock pick set, notebooks with writings that included a plot to steal ammunition from a retailer, police radio frequencies and a hand-drawn map of a campus building showing escape routes.

So no problems, right? That's perfectly normal stuff any liberal college student is likely to have in his dorm room. And a lot of college students leave notes that say things like: "Combat is much faster and closer than you think" and "the average door takes 2.5 kicks," according to the complaint. Notes also contained training directions for where to shoot a person on their body, targeting three areas -- the upper thoracic, the T-zone of the face, and the pelvis. https://www.cbsnews.com/minnesota/news/st-olaf-college-student-waylon-kurts-charged-after-cache-found-in-dorm/
